As we created our business plan and goals for 2018, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on 2017. We launched Milwaukee Beer Gear in September 2017 and have been thrilled with the positive feedback from the Milwaukee community over the last three months. A few highlights we wanted to share:<\/p>\n

Product Launches<\/strong><\/p>\n

We launched Milwaukee Beer Gear with four neighborhoods: Historic Third Ward, Walker’s Point, Lower East Side and Brewer’s Hill. In November we added Bay View and Wauwatosa neighborhoods as well as our Wisconsin Beer Ingredient coasters – Barley, Yeast, Water and Wheat.<\/p>\n

Makers Community<\/strong><\/p>\n

The local Milwaukee makers community has been exceptionally welcoming, friendly and helpful. From providing advice on the type of wood that would sell best to offering space to create and local partnerships, we couldn’t ask for a better community to be a part of.<\/p>\n

Local Shops<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our coasters landed in LocalMKE<\/a> just weeks after we launched and shortly after, Milwaukee Beer Gear products could be found at\u00a0Milwaukee Home<\/a>, Cream City Restoration<\/a>, Studio Barcelona<\/a> and Hyde Park<\/a>. We love working with local Milwaukee shops and are excited to develop these partnerships even further in 2018.<\/p>\n

Pop-Ups<\/strong><\/p>\n

We were lucky to be included in two holiday pop-ups in December where we got to not only sell our coasters in person but meet other Milwaukee makers who inspire us to be better every day.<\/p>\n
