The recent distilling innovators have their roots in craft brewing. In 1993, Anchor Brewing, considered one of the first micro-breweries in the US, became the first brewery in the world with its own distillery. Nine years later, Dogfish Head, arguably the most famous craft brewery of today became the second. Today there are roughly 235 craft distilleries in the US, around 20 are operated by craft breweries. In addition to the aforementioned Anchor and Dogfish Head are Rogue's House of Spirits in Oregon, Ranger Creek in Texas, New Holland Brewing and Artisan Spirits in Michigan, Square One Brewery and Distillery in Missouri. Panther Distillery in Osakis, MN is proud to be the first craft distillery in MN, I would be proud to be the first craft distillery in the Twin Cities and the first Brewstillery in Minnesota. a 0 f f z - _ ---- 3 - �= 3 k I Z �--_ 4 3 5 .e 14 kv, s-3 4 1 ' 3 z 12 t 3 -, _j __j u Previous two graphics are from the white paper: "The US Craft Distilling Market: 2011 and Beyond" by Michael Kinstlick, CEO Coppersea Distilling, LLC 2. The Company Blume Brauhaus, LLC is a privately-funded, family-owned business serving the craft community of the Twin Cities, MN. Blume Brauhaus will do business as Bent Brewstillery featuring Beer, Bourbon and Spirits. The name Bent is used because most of the beers are not made to style. They are "bent" a little bit away from the norm. This sometimes comes from combining the best parts of 2 different styles. Similar but different(skewed). The Goal - Bent Brewstillery will provide products that the public wants in a comfortable, inviting atmosphere. The main company goal is to create a complimentary and mutually supportive business in Arden Hills that will become a "must-see" destination listing with the MN Board of Tourism.
