The Four Corners region of the United States holds some of the country's best and most renowned microbreweries, with Colorado having the fourth most breweries of any state in our nation. While the craft beer industry isn't exploding like it was about a decade ago, it's still a critical part of the economy for many states like Colorado, and creating the perfect craft beer experience is as important as ever.
Whether you're a taproom, a microbrewery, a large scale brewhouse, or even a restaurant that specializes in the service of craft beer, our team at Elevation Nation are proud experts in everything craft beer, and we can help you match current beer trends with the equipment and supplies to activate those trends in profitable ways.
Create a beer system that promotes quality.
We understand the tendency to focus a ton of attention on the beer production process, but if that beer doesn't make it to the glass via a beer system that promotes quality, operators can quite literally pour profits down the drain.
Whether you're running a draft line from a keg room to the tap or storing specialty cans and bottles behind the bar, make sure beer is kept at the right temperature and in the right storage conditions. When beer runs to the tap at the wrong temperatures, for example, it can lead to excess foam. Foam is often dumped into a drip pan, which is literally throwing beer and profits down the drain.
Consider great beer systems and beer refrigeration options that promote quality and enhance profits.
Serve beer in the right glassware.
How you serve your beer can be just as important as what beer you serve. This goes for beer systems, as well as the glasses from which your customers drink.
If you've ever been to Europe, one of the things you'll quickly realize is that beer isn't served in a classic Boston pint glass. The shapes of the glasses vary depending on what style of beer you drink, and the reason for this is certain beer glass shapes enhance the aromas and flavors of certain beer types.
Consider serving craft beer in the beer glasses that match your beer styles.
Can your beers for additional profit potential.
For beer that's consumed off-premise, consider canning beers to generate additional profit potential and marketing reach from special brews.
This requires the right technology to provide fast and efficient canning that will ensure superior taste, the integrity of beer, and will preserve the freshness of your product.
Consider an industry-leaving beer canning system with patented seaming and filling technology designed for quality control.
