Dry January was just the beginning…

Not too long ago, “extreme beers” were all the rage� But now the pendulum has swung in the other direction and consumer insight & analytics

company Social Standard has the numbers to prove it� The company, which monitors online conversations among consumers, reported that discussions about high-octane alcoholic beverages are down, but chatter about low- and no-alcohol products is up 80 percent� Back in October, BeverageDaily.com spoke with Social Standard CEO Devon Bergan, who explained the significance of their finding:

Data suggests that moderation isn’t just a fad – it’s a trend likely to have major repercussions for the beverage alcohol industry… but consumers are still in search of flavorful, refreshing options� High-quality, innovative brands that align themselves with moderation will own the category� As unsexy as it sounds, moderation is an easier win than telling consumers to abandon alcohol entirely�

Therein lies your opportunity� And for on- and off-premise establishments, the selling story is the same� Customers don’t have to settle for beverages that are inferior substitutes for the “real deal” when they can choose new, premium products that suit the occasion, their mood & lifestyle� And they don’t have to sacrifice quality or taste for the sake of moderation� Convey to your customers that a flavorful, better-for-you “drink of choice” is an upgrade – not a punishment masquerading as a healthier option�

Our cover story featuring Saint Archer Gold is a case in point; an above-premium, authentic, lifestyle beverage that is low in calories & carbs that doesn’t skimp on taste� And as I said before, there are many new products beyond beer that are low in carbs & alcohol, waiting for you to discover� Corona Hard Seltzer Variety Pack delivers tons of flavor with zero grams of carbs or sugar� Dogfish Head and legendary Belgium brewery Rodenbach collaborated on Vibrant P’Ocean, a kettle sour two years in the making, bursting with berry and lemon flavors� (Its ABV is a mere 4�7%�)

Consumers are on the lookout for new tastes, a new story and a new experience� This edition of Heady Times is filled with the innovative, flavorful & better-for-you products customers are looking for� That sounds like an opportunity to me�

As always, thank you for your business� See you in the New Year�

Dominic Origlio President

AS MILLERCOORS RELEASES THEIR WHITE-HOT BRAND SAINT Archer Gold nationally, the taste and quality of the liquid underscore why some call it the best light beer in the world� Low in calories, but

bursting with flavor most light beers can only dream of, Saint Archer Gold is attracting “mindful millennials” back to the beer category� Brewery president Brad Nadal has recognized that active-lifestyle millennial consumers are looking for an authentic drink to join them in their pursuit of happiness – a beer that doesn’t hold them back, a “light for the journey�”

Enter Saint Archer Gold�

A helles-inspired lager made with Noble hops, Saint Archer Gold has made huge waves in initial test markets� At 95 calories and only 2�6 grams of carbs, Saint Archer Gold fills what Nadal calls a “white space for taste and lifestyle authenticity in the above-premium light space�” Saint Archer’s aim with Gold was to create a “beer that appeals to Michelob Ultra drinkers, who have prioritized lower carbs and calories over flavor and quality�”

Mindful millennials are seeking brands that embrace a life of balance and self-actualization [see sidebar: what is a mindful millennial?] just like the Saint Archer brewers� This validates the brand’s authenticity� “When consumers taste the liquid, they buy it for its flavor,” said Paul Verdu, vice president of sales & marketing for Tenth and Blake, the MillerCoors craft and import division� “That’s when we decided it wasn’t an exaggeration to call it ‘The Ultimate Light Beer�’”

Nadal points out, “We’re essentially the opposite of Ultra� We aren’t about the finish, we aren’t about the end game or being the best… we’re about being in the moment… the journey� Being there for our consumers’ passions, whether that’s art, music, sports, outdoors etc� We want to be there for our consumers along the way, as they do the things they love�” This is the Saint Archer lifestyle� “Our founders came from all walks of life: skaters, snowboarders, surfers, photographers, artists, musicians, who all came together to brew beers that fit who we are and what we love�” Saint Archer Gold reflects that belief: a go-anywhere, taste-forward, low-carb, low-cal brew that is perfect for the journey�

Early test markets show it’s already attracting a strong following� In the four markets where the beer was tested, a whopping 53% said they would spend their own money on the product� That speaks volumes� (Most test marketers are happy if 30% of those who sampled indicate they would purchase it, if left to their own devices�)

“Our team spent a year getting the taste of Saint Archer right,” says Verdu� “It is slightly more hop-forward in flavor than other light beers, but it’s still crisp and refreshing� And it’s a more upscale alternative to most light beers�”

Saint Archer Gold was crafted in response to two major industry trends: the huge growth in above-premium, lower-calorie, low ABV beers (Gold clocks in at just 4�2% ABV and is one of the lowest-calorie lagers in the market) and the renewed interest in flavorful, light lagers desired by modern consumers�

Verdu went on to explain that a helles beer this good could only be made by a team of highly skilled brewmasters� “This style is regarded by many as the absolute pinnacle of brewing science and art� The beer must mature for a long time – about six weeks – and there is no room for error� Any off flavors have no place to hide�” All that hard work has paid off – Verdu and his team believe that “the stars really aligned” when they created Saint Archer Gold� The liquid is that good�

Founded in San Diego by Josh Landan in 2013, with the help of a group of professional surfers, skateboarders and snowboarders, Saint Archer was born out of his team’s “commitment to following the path less travelled, and the realization that sometimes when you’re going down a road

untraveled by others, you might want a light for the journey�” Once again, that authenticity and mindset speaks to active, health-conscious 21 to 39 year-olds�

Since the launch of the first nationally-available American light beer back in 1975, the beers of the category have been appreciated for what they lack – fewer carbs,

less calories and less alcohol – compared to their full-figured brethren� And while they do taste like beer, drinkers accepted the reality of the situation� Most true beer lovers understood that they couldn’t enjoy their beloved beverage and maintain a healthy-ish lifestyle, without sacrificing something� And that something was exceptional flavor�

But that was then, this is now�

Saint Archer Gold represents the future of beer� An above-premium, authentic, lifestyle beer that is low in calories and carbs, that doesn’t sacrifice taste� Most importantly, it’s the new benchmark for a beer segment that generates 85 percent of the industry’s volume� For Nadal and his team, the sky is the limit for Saint Archer Gold� “We’re confident we have a winner here,” says Nadal� “Once we get the consumer to try it, we win! We’re excited to align with the team at Origlio and get this Ultimate Light Beer to their retailers and in the hands of our consumers!”

What You Need to Know About Saint Archer Gold • Saint Archer Gold appeals to above-premium shoppers

age 21-39, who make 50% more beer trips and spend 16% more per trip�

• Available in draught, as well as 12 and 16 oz� cans, Saint Archer Gold is priced in line with the growing, above-premium segment�

• There is a 26% lift in sales when shelved and priced with Mich Ultra�

• Nearly half of all Mich Ultra drinkers are over 50, while Saint Archer Gold appeals to younger consumers�

• Sampling this crisp, light-bodied lager has resulted in a boost in sales in early test markets and remains central to MillerCoors’ national launch strategy�

MillerCoors will support the brand with a full media package, including television spots, a digital and social media campaign, outdoor advertising, sampling events and a presence at MillerCoors-sponsored venues and events.

What is a Mindful Millennial?• Millennials are young adults between 24 & 39 years

of age�

• Mindful millennials are defined by their aspirations�

• They strive to live each and every day with purpose & find community with like-minded individuals�

• They refuse to be defined by any one role in their lives – job title or parenthood, for example�

• Quality of life is their Holy Grail�

• Overworked and stressed out, these individuals seek well-made brands that complement their active lifestyles and won’t hold them back�

The mindful millennial’s life is a journey and Saint Archer Gold is the beer they reach for when they need an emotional & genuine breather.

BrewerHIGHLIGHTCarol Stoudt of Stoudts Brewing Company

IN TODAY’S OVERCROWDED BREWING landscape, it’s easy to forget about the tried and true breweries in our own backyards� The Stoudt

family has been brewing in Adamstown, PA for over 30 years and, as pioneers of the industry, have paved the way for many breweries today� While some drinkers might be out searching for the newest

beer and brewery to try, this OG of the industry has more than enough to offer�

Heady Times talked with Tom Miller, a representative from Stoudts, to find out a few things you need to know about the brewery.

1. Ed and Carol Stoudt started Stoudts Brewing Company in 1987� At the time, it was Pennsylvania’s first “microbrewery” and one of just 73 breweries in the United States�

2. Carol Stoudt was also the first woman to open a brewery since prohibition�

3. Today, Stoudts Brewery has an annual capacity of 15,000 barrels�

4. Gearshifter IPA, Golden Helles Lager and Pils will be available year-round in 2020, with APA, Scarlet Lady and Fat Dog making seasonal appearances�

5. Double IPA will have limited availability, but will see a reformulation and new packaging mid to late summer�

6. The brewery’s newest series called “Queen of Hops” is centered around using innovative ingredients and techniques to produce unique interpretations of popular beer styles� “It’s the love of creating beautiful beers one batch at a time,” says Carol Stoudt� Next to be released in the series is a hazy IPA�

7. Stoudts also has a 1-barrel pilot system that the brewers like to play on� Most of the beers brewed with this system are served in the restaurant, called Black Angus, which is adjacent to the brewery� If the beer is a success there, they’ll brew it on a larger scale�

8. Early next year, Stoudts will be collaborating with another local brewery, Sly Fox� Look for this black lager in 16 oz� cans and on draught� It will also be served at joint promotions the breweries will be hosting�

9. 2020 will be the 41st year that Stoudts will host their Oktoberfest celebration�

10. In addition to Oktoberfest, the brewery hosts numerous events throughout the year, including open mic nights, cyclocross, running races, beer fests and art fests� The beer hall is also available for weddings, corporate events, private parties, etc� year-round�

Bensalem Beer & SodaHow Team Efforts Drive Quality Over Quantity

A LANDMARK IN BUCKS COUNTY, FAMILY-OWNED BENSALEM BEER & Soda has been around for ages� Located on a prime corner of the always-busy Street Road, the store’s dedicated managers have

made it a priority to maximize shelf space to accommodate as many new products as possible� Staying current with the industry’s latest trends and delighting their customers with superior service, selection and a great shopping experience are their priorities� Heady Times sat down with Andrea Siegfried, the store manager at Bensalem Beer & Soda and warehouse manager, Mike Skelton, to learn what goes into the day-to-day operation of such a massive store�

Heady Times (HT): Can you tell us more about Bensalem Beer & Soda and the operation you’ve got going on here?

Andrea Siegfried (AS): We’ve been in this location since 2000 and I’ve been a part of the family business for as long as I can remember� I started doing small things to help when I was younger, but continued to gain responsibilities� I learned so much about the business during that time because of the hands-on experience� Having grown up in this industry, it feels natural to be here, and I really enjoy what I do�

HT: How has the evolution of the craft industry affected your business since 2000?

AS: We sell to more people, who buy more variety, but less quantity than before� Instead of buying cases, customers are buying 6-packs or 12-packs to try new things� Seltzers are huge� We’ve also had success with non-alcoholic products and even noticed a growing interest in hard coffee� We never thought we’d be going through so much Heineken 0�0 or Lagunitas Hoppy Refresher, but younger consumers are gravitating towards these flavorful, healthier options�

Mike Skelton (MS): We’ve been successful selling more single-serve cans and 4-packs at the register, which is where we highlight new products� Our refrigerated, single-serve section near the back of the store also does well� We offer a wide selection that is arranged by new releases first, followed by styles� We are all about efficiency� My biggest challenge has been finding room to add more cooler doors so we can stock all the products our customers want�

HT: How do you keep up with your customers’ expectations with everything going on in the industry?

AS: We have a texting system which currently reaches 900 people� It’s how we communicate what’s new� There are new products hitting the market daily, so this helps simplify things as much as possible� As for kegs, people tell me what they are looking for� Because they typically only need one, I contact them myself�

From left to right: Warehouse Manager Mike Skelton, Assistant Store Manager Jennifer McGinley and Store Manager Andrea Siegfried

BensalemBeerAndSoda.com • 1919 Street Road, Bensalem • 215-639-4790

HT: How do you enhance the in-store experience for your customers?

MS: We put a lot of effort into the store’s design and lighting� Expansions have given us tons of space to work with, so we have wide aisles and the flexibility to build eye-catching displays that stop the shopper� We’ve set the place up to be easy to navigate� This way, customers can quickly find a category or brand, and grab what they need� We’ve been lucky to have gained the shelf space to carry all the new products and properly show them off to our customers�

HT: Has Origlio helped your business over the years?

AS: Yes� Heady Times is a useful tool for us� Between that and all the email blasts, Origlio keeps us informed about inventory and upcoming releases� It makes things easier to keep track of� The new online ordering system has simplified my weekly orders and allows me to be more efficient� Being able to quickly search for what I need, and have the system automatically check for any discounts, makes the process smoother than before� On top of that, everyone has always been genuinely caring, from the sales team to the delivery drivers and helpers�

Beer Wall on PennA self-serve beer joint acing customer service.

WEST READING’S NEWEST BAR FEATURES SELF-SERVE BEER, but don’t let that fool you, customer service is their number one priority� “The concept brings people in and great food brings

them back, but customer service is what makes them regulars,” says co-owner Josh Stenchever� Heady Times sat down with the crew at Beer Wall on Penn to find out a little more about their business�

Heady Times (HT): How did you get into this industry?

Josh Stenchever (JS): I’ve always loved craft beer� I lived across the street from a craft beer bar in college that had a mix-a-6 option, and that was back in the day when not every bar had a lot of craft beer� When I graduated college, I had no idea what I wanted to do, so I ended up taking a job at that bar� I eventually transferred to their sister location in Reading and worked on becoming a Cicerone� While I was barbecuing for some friends one summer, my mother said, “You look happiest when you’re hosting and talking about beer�” So I ended up getting a job at a brewery�

HT: How did the idea for Beer Wall come about?

JS: The idea came from my business partner, Josue Matos� He was a business major at Albright College and had to create a business plan for a project� Someone in the class had just come back from California and had been to a self-serve bar, so Josue took the idea and ran with it� He ended up creating an LLC, turning his project into a business� I was at a crossroads with my job and I had the industry experience, so I joined him�

HT: What are the pros and cons of self-serve draught beer?

JS: This a bartenders’ draught beer system and if you’ve never poured on something like this, it can be difficult� If you don’t open the tap all the way, you’ll get a foamy beer� People can be intimidated at first�

I wanted the bar to be right by the door so everyone that walked in could be greeted by the bartender and given a little intro on how to use the system� The biggest issue is when it’s busy and we’re short on staff, it’s tough to show every single person how to pour a beer� That being said, the pros outweigh the cons�

Customers can pour a small amount of beer to sample before they commit to buying a whole beer� There are so many bars carrying a large variety of beers, and a lot of consumers are worried they won’t like what they get� The fact that people can control how much they pour means they don’t have to sit with a warm beer� They can pour 6 or 8 ounces, sit and enjoy it, then go back up and pour more when they are ready� Lastly, keg efficiency is a big plus� I’ve been working for bars for a long time� Most bars are at 85% keg efficiency at best� Our efficiency is 90-95% – everything that’s poured is accounted for� This allows us to maintain a fair price for what we’re selling�

HT: What is your beer selection like?

JS: We have 38 taps – 28 downstairs and 10 upstairs� We like to maintain a diverse selection� We have a series of domestics, because if you’ve been drinking a lager for 30 years, who am I to tell you to start drinking IPAs? Our goal was to make everyone who walked through

RethinkingRETAIL

Reports of a retail apocalypse have been greatly exaggerated� E-commerce has not swallowed

traditional, brick & mortar retail� But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pay attention to the changing demands of today’s customers, most of whom are short on time and overwhelmed by too many choices�

Engaging with customers is the key to sales� And taking that a step further, face-to-face engagement, also known as a conversation, can lay the foundation for an exceptional shopping experience that is tailored to the customer’s needs�

Does that sound difficult? It doesn’t have to be� Just try to estimate the age of the customer� You only need to be in the ballpark� And with a little bit of extra knowledge, you can initiate a conversation… one that leads to impulse purchases, up-selling and customer loyalty�

Here’s what you need to know…

Gen Z (ages 21 to 24)

For Gen Z, in-store shopping represents an opportunity for an authentic experience, an escape

from social media� These consumers primarily purchase 6-packs because they are interested in trying new products that put a focus on flavor� Gen Z shoppers seek trendier beverages that are low-ABV, low-calorie or even non-alcoholic� They spend 27% of their beer dollars on American light lagers� Connect with these shoppers by creating an in-store experience focused on unique products� Talk about the latest beverage trends and why they are worth exploring�

Millennials (ages 25 to 39)

Millennials came of legal drinking age during the craft beer boom, but they’re also founders of the moderation movement� Their focus is on social drinking, whenever the opportunity presents itself� Capture this consumer by promoting variety packs for group occasions and encourage them to create their own 6-pack� While they don’t mind spending money on a product they perceive as “worth it”, cost is a consideration� Be prepared to explain how the price reflects the quality of the liquid�

Gen X (ages 40 to 54)

Gen Xers purchase a large amount of alcohol� Products with interesting stories, unique ingredients or those that support good causes lead to sales� This group is loyal to their established tastes, but still seek out new brands� Gen X consumers are interested in eye-catching labels and the brand’s story� They can be convinced to try new products if they connect with the company� Ask this consumer what they usually drink and guide them towards new brands within those categories that stand apart from the rest�

Baby Boomers (ages 55 to 75)

Just because Boomers are the oldest generation doesn’t mean they don’t enjoy alcohol! Boomers are more economically powerful than millennials and they purchase 45% of all beer sold� This generation sticks to brand favorites, but they are open to buying line extensions� Boomers purchase full cases of their trusted go-to products� They are influenced by price though, which can be a more important factor than taste�

Online shopping is fine, but in-store shopping can be divine. It’s all about the experience you create – millennials are all about the experience, but shoppers of all ages can be socially engaged. And that’s something they can’t get online.

Each generation has their own unique preferences when shopping. Being able to identify and then tap into those preferences is all it takes to delight your customers and create an experience that can’t be duplicated online. So go ahead, do some age “profiling”.
