Together We’re Bitter Co-op launches Kickstarter campaign
Kitchener, ON – Together We’re Bitter Co-op Brewing (TWB), an upcoming co-operative brewpub in Kitchener, is looking to crowd-funding through Kickstarter to help secure $10,000 to finalize their launch efforts.
“We need to keep our experimental brews at just the right fermentation temperature and we don’t want to tie up our main fermenter for these beers. So we’ll need a shiny ten hectolitre fermenter with a glycol jacket and all the piping and fittings. This is going to run us about eight grand,” say TWB founders. “The other two thousand will be spent purchasing, shipping, and paying taxes on all the limited edition TWB gear on offer during this campaign.”
TWB’s co-operative concept sees workers and community supporters own the business and determines it’s course.
“What excites us most about doing this is that we get to put our values into practice,” says TBW. “The craft beer and local food movements – two of our passions – are centered on building a prosperous community. We want to channel our community’s creativity into an endeavor that creates good jobs, supports local food producers, and makes Kitchener a more vibrant place.”
The brewery aims to open in Summer 2015.
