Selling Craft on Draft


What’s the secret to success in selling craft beer? “Operators who take their beer menus, staff training and presentation very seriously are the ones who sell the most craft beer,” says Julia Herz, director of craft beer marketing for the Brewers Association, the Boulder, Colo., based trade association representing America’s craft brewers. Yet this success does not rely on price promotions or pouring massive portions.

Wine and Food Trucks?


Liza Zimmerman

I welcome the trend of food trucks, led in the U.S. by Portland, OR, without a doubt. New York and many other major cities have followed suit, with great culinary results. But few of them offer more than beer—if that—as a pairing for their dishes.
