Discover Land-Grant Brewing’s Innovative Beer Vending Machine

Columbus has witnessed some inventive vending machines over the years, from charcuterie and cake to pizza. But now, Land-Grant Brewing Co. has brought a new twist to the trend with Columbus’s very first beer vending machine.

Partnering with VenGuard for Fresh Brews

The local startup VenGuard has teamed up with Land-Grant brewing Co. to introduce this groundbreaking concept. Located at the brewery’s Franklinton Taproom, patrons can now experience a unique way to enjoy their favorite beers.

Experience the Convenience

After a successful trial run last weekend, the beer vending machine is now fully operational. Nestled in The Taproom at 424 W. Town St., it offers a selection of nine different Land-Grant beers. Choices include Lemon Glow, Oh, Sure, House Beer, and a variety of rotating seasonal releases.

Advanced Identification Technology

This isn’t just any ordinary vending machine. It incorporates advanced identification technology to ensure customer safety. The process is simple:

  • Insert your ID.
  • A camera scans your face.
  • Facial recognition software confirms your identity.

Additionally, the machine’s system is trained with a database containing fake IDs taken from campus-area bars, enhancing its reliability.

Land-Grant Brewing: Committed to Innovation

Adam Benner, Co-Founder of Land-Grant Brewing Co., shared his enthusiasm in a press release: “We’re always looking for ways to improve our customer experience. Partnering with VenGuard allows us to serve our customers faster without compromising on safety.”
