SWINGING BRIDGE MUG CLUB
Community Supported Brewery (CSB)
We are founded as a Community Supported Brewery (CSB). The CSB program is loosely based on the community supported agriculture model (CSA). Traditionally, Farm CSAs sell produce shares, and in exchange, the customer receives a box of fresh produce each week at prices lower than the market rate. Our model will be similar except we will be offering beer shares to our customers. Members will also receive early access to new products, discount on merchandise, invites to attend member-only events, and discounts on additional purchases.
MEMBERSHIP DETAILS
In addition to the monthly subscription, we reserve special benefits just for our members. Our CSB memberships run for a one year season starting in January and can be for one or two cans a month. The options and additional info is outlined in the above graphic. Along with monthly cans of beer, a CSB membership will include discounts on merchandise and food purchases in the taproom. We will also have early access to beer releases and members will be invited to the annual member appreciation event.
Limited Memberships
CSB memberships will be limited to 100 every year. Current members have the opportunity to renew in December before shares are released to everyone in January. Memberships sell quickly, and it will be first come first serve basis when the season opens.
