Small Craft Breweries Across US Consolidate as Competition Stiffens
A number of small brewery transactions have emerged this month, as craft breweries across the country fight to remain competitive in an increasingly more crowded industry.
In Wisconsin, the nearly seven-year-old Wisconsin Brewing Company announced that it would acquire Lake Louie Brewery in Arena after conversations about a tie-up began in 2017.
“We were super excited to explore this idea and bring Tom and his team into our family,” Wisconsin Brewing CEO Carl Nolen said via a press release. “This new collaboration will allow us to utilize our scale to expand and enhance the Lake Louie portfolio.”
