The most frequent request we receive is when breweries want to know what is working for other breweries so we decided to connect everyone directly! The result was a must-watch cornucopia of brilliant ideas and helpful contributions by breweries for breweries. 



Shout out to the 80 breweries who signed up to join us for our first TapWyse Digital Happy Hour! It was great to see so many of you sharing ideas, asking thoughtful questions, and learning from one another. 

A special thank you to Rodney from Orange Hat Brewing, Stephanie from Ska Brewing, and Jake from Scuffle Hill for taking the time to share their experiences and the strategies that have been working for them. We really appreciate your willingness to help the rest of the TapWyse community.


Until we meet again...

Today's tap tale comes to us from the Culture Brewing in Southern California. Sometimes it's the simple programs that work the best and Culture does a great job of this… With a twist!



Culture Brewing in Southern California runs a classic "Buy 9, Get 1 Free" punch card in their app. Nothing groundbreaking, right? Except theirs has been punched an absurd 57,000 times.

Here’s the twist. Culture doesn't just let the card sit there passively. Every now and then, they send a push message announcing a Double Punch Day. The crowds swarm the taproom, the drinks flow, and sales spike, all because of a tiny nudge. 

Cheers to Culture Brewing for proving, once again, that the simplest ideas are usually the best ones. Want to run your own Double Punch Days? Let TapWyse handle the heavy lifting while you take all the credit.

Captain Lawrence, Westchester’s largest craft brewery, just pulled off one of the best brewery app launch campaigns we've seen so naturally, we had to share the booty.



The setup was simple. Guests got a shiny new perk every single Monday for eight weeks. Because the rewards were time-sensitive, folks had a reason to download the app today. Even better, signing up earlier meant more perks, which turned customers into hype-men encouraging their friends to download too.

The payoff? Over 1,000 users and 564 repeat visits in just two months. Cheers to Captain Lawrence for their Kraken launch campaign!

'Tis the season to be making money, and Cocoon Brewing out of Ledgeview, Wisconsin, is absolutely crushing it. I've already missed two chances to brag about how awesome this team is, but I have a feeling they will be frequent guests of the Tap Tales series. So check it out…



On top of their core memberships, Cocoon has launched a Series of Seasonal Sales. I'm a Snake. First, their March Madness bracket pass, then their cornhole league, and now their Summer Run Club.

Runners join for free in the app, get weekly updates via push notifications, and track their progress on a digital punch card. Hit three runs in June, and boom! Free appetizer. Because if you’re going to run in the summer heat, you need to refuel with beer and carbs!

Cheers Cocoon! And if you want an easy way to run seasonal clubs and events at your brewery then you've come to the right place? Book a demo and let's get it done!
