Craft Beer Revolution: Embracing Diversity and Inclusivity
In a world where Craft Beer has traditionally echoed a predominately male demographic, there is a fresh wave of change sweeping through, emphasizing the importance of women in beer and expanding into nonalcoholic craft beer options. This revolution isn’t just about Brewing quality beer; it’s about crafting spaces and flavors that cater to a more diverse audience.
The Inception of a New Era
At the Heart of this transformation in the craft beer industry is the inspiring journey of Talea Beer Co. Co-founders Tara Hankinson and LeAnn, have pivoted from traditional paths to establish a brewery with a distinct focus on inclusivity. Their combined expertise and entrepreneurial spirit have created a brand that not only produces craft beer but does so with an innovative approach that welcomes all.
A Brewery from a Different Mould
Unlike conventional breweries, Talea aims to break the mold with its vibrant, inviting ambiance and a lineup of unique beer flavors such as Carrot Ginger and Peach-Berry Punch.
