America’s smallest, biggest and most award-winning Jewish (and now Sideshow Freak) Beer Company, Shmaltz Brewing Company is proud to announce achieving over two and a half times the national average with nearly 25% growth over the past year.
In 2010, Shmaltz sold more than 100,000 cases of HE’BREW Beer® and Coney Island Craft Lagers®, and projects its annual sales for 2011 at $2.75 million. With a staff of 10 employees, Shmaltz strides forward with a tradition of releasing exceptional specialty beers while producing jobs, marketing innovative label designs in a seemingly saturated beer market, and successfully maintaining a grassroots wholesale network of largely family-owned businesses.
Shmaltz plans to release an unprecedented product line-up in 2011. From ambitious barreling aging projects and collaborations with other top breweries to releasing a limited edition beer for charity, Shmaltz is brewing some of today’s most outrageous craft beers in the industry.
