Located in the Northland area of Kansas City, Rock & Run primarily sells beer from their taproom and via limited distribution in Missouri, attracting a loyal following with their small-batch brews and tasty taproom fare. The Beer Label Guy worked with brewery leadership as they refined their core lineup of beers for draft distribution, developed a limited-release beer in a bomber bottle, and expanded their distribution footprint into Kansas.

This project included the following regulatory compliance services and expertise:

n Pre-COLA label reviews, creative direction and copywriting (can label/keg collars)n Managing TTB COLAs and state approvals for six brands (can label/keg collars)n Creating and standardizing distributor franchise agreement and appointment lettern Obtaining out-of-state supplier permit from Kansas Alcoholic Beverage Control

“ ”Andrew provided creative direction during the label design phase, and

helped us obtain COLAs, state approvals and an out-of-state license with great ease.

He made it far more efficient than we could have on our own, since we’re all

busy with other facets of our brewery and don’t have as much time or energy to devote to compliance. The entire

process was very smooth.
