Tariffs, Recession, and Sobriety... oh my!

The go-go years are gone, and the slow go is getting slower. What steps should you take to ensure your brewery survives the uncertainties of changing economic, political, and social changes. This interactive session will explore the financial challenges of rising costs and slowing demand, as well as offer strategies for overcoming said challenges. This session will lay a foundation for a group discussion with the intent of helping owners find both solace in knowing they are not alone... and meaningful strategies to help them navigate these murky waters.
