IBG is a 100-barrel contract brewing facility that also runs three successful retail locations under The Guild Brewing Company brand. Jeremy gives us a behind-the-scenes look into large-scale production with a strong retail presence focused on food, events, and sales (without sacrificing margin!)
Highlights:
