Bryn Mawr Brewing Co. to Offer Equity Shares to Investors Under New Crowdfunding Laws

Local brewery launches unique opportunity to invest in new Minneapolis craft brewery and tap room.

Minneapolis, MN, USA — Bryn Mawr Brewing Co. is offering accredited investors the opportunity to invest in the production, design, and creation of its full-production brewery and tap room. Taking advantage of new Federal equity crowdfunding laws, the Minneapolis craft brewery is seeking local residents and beer lovers anywhere in the country to invest and receive Series A Preferred Membership Units in its startup venture. This unique investment opportunity gives accredited investors a strong potential for a lucrative return on their investment while supporting a local business and its community.

Bryn Mawr Brewing Co. is seeking to raise $1,225,000 with a minimum investment of $20,000 per investor. The financing of preferred equity will be conducted through the brewery’s holding company, Utepils Investments LLC. Investors will receive accelerated cash distributions based on profitability of the brewery, which is projected to occur within three years of opening. Along with returns on their investments, Bryn Mawr Brewing Co.’s investors will also benefit from exclusive perks in the tap room and priority access to the annual Bryn Mawr Brewing Co. Beer Trip program.

According to the Brewers Association, craft beer sales in Minnesota in 2014 averaged less than 9% of all beer sales, while the national average was 17.6%. This disparity has led to high demand for quality, locally produced beer and created explosive growth potential for new breweries entering the Twin Cities market. This ongoing growth trend presents an auspicious opportunity for investors looking to grow and diversify their portfolio by investing with Bryn Mawr Brewing Co.

“This publicly announced private placement is truly a unique way to fund the start up of a brewery,” said Dan Justesen, Co-Owner of Bryn Mawr Brewing Co. “We plan to brew finely crafted beer for our neighbors while also putting money back in their pockets. Bryn Mawr Brewing Co. will be a welcoming place where friends, families, and neighbors can get together to share stories, laughs, and great beer.”
