I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed this idea and now wish I was a viral beer hero just so I could help brew a blood orange saison. It's well executed too, I love meeting these heroes and laughed at David Achten de Molen, aka the amazing crowd surfer, saying you could still hear the music in his beer. By treating the subject, which is pretty silly, with the utmost reverence and straight face they made a very enjoyable campaign. I'll drink to that.
After two years of searching, UBREW actually found the beer heroes and made beer with them.
At Ubrew we believe that, deep down, there’s a Beer Hero in all of us. We’re not only selling beer, we’re selling the experience of crafting your own beer. Our name tells it all U-BREW. Our vision is simple: we want to create a beer for every Beer Hero out there. We have found 3 of them, but the search for more continues and we hope to find many more and brew more beer for them”, said Matt Denham, UBrew Founder.
Finding the internets most famous beer heroes wasn't easy, but once they were found UBREW made beers with them that capture their heroic moments.
