The Challenge

Create authentic beer moments and increase brand awareness with The Brewski Tour – a tour focused on visiting different ski resorts and craft brewer friends to have a pint.

The Solution

Traditional PR: localized PR in the towns visited to showcase the beer and the establishments that sold it.

Organic Social Media and Community Management: created an engaged following of beer enthusiasts who followed the tour online.

Paid Digital Ads: managed awareness ads that showed the local love of beer and skiing – a combination of two favourite pastimes.

Influencer Engagement: key influencers were invited to go on the tour and take the trip of a lifetime. Sheer enjoyment of the experience led to influencers posting beyond their contracted amounts.
