Coffee professionals and enthusiasts alike eagerly await the annual national Coffee Championships. Each year, the pioneering competitions bring together some of the world’s most talented and skilled industry professionals.
These events include the national Coffee Roasting Championships, which take place in many countries around the world. Alongside assessing final cup quality, the three-stage competition also evaluates roasters’ knowledge of green coffee grading and roast profile development.
As with any championship, prospective competitors need to thoroughly study the rules and understand the format. But rather more importantly, competitors must practise and hone their skills to stand a chance of claiming the title of their respective country’s best roaster.

Since 2017, Bill Shufelt (CEO, Athletic Brewing Co.) went from hedge fund trader to the CEO of the leading producer of non-alcoholic craft beer. Unlike my typical tech-focused chats this one centers around a product I personally love. In the conversation, Bill tells stories of the unscalable but crucial strategies he used to build a brand, push past rejection, and redefine the non-alcoholic beer industry.
→ The unscalable activities that made Athletic a household name
Athletic Brewing’s brand was built on unscalable activities, like handing out samples at races. Now, Bill often runs into high LTV customers at races he hasn’t attended in years when they say things like, “I met you in 2018 and my fridge has been full of your beer ever since.” While each sampling felt minor in the moment, Athletic has now activated thousands of events, and the long-term impacts accumulate.
→ How rejection helped Athletic build a competitive advantage
Facing initial rejections from every contract brewer in the US, Bill took a bold step in building their own brewery. In hindsight, it allowed them unparalleled control over every aspect of production, from ingredient quality to rigorous testing of each batch. By handling everything in-house, Athletic also gains the flexibility to innovate and respond to market demands quickly—benefits that would have been unattainable had they relied on external partners.
→ Bill’s genius sales tactic
Bill personally signed 300 deals with retail stores using clever tactics. Before pitching a buyer at a store, Bill would recruit a random grocery store shopper to pretend that they were super interested in the beer while Bill was pitching the deal. This approach helped break initial skepticism and build early buzz around their offerings, which helped Athletic secured shelf space and propel forward.

It’s Thursday, so throwing it back to honor what was once my favorite day of the week - Bowling night.
In college, we rolled every Thursday for three years. Take that for a liberal arts education!
I could’ve told you from experience that bowlers over-index in beer consumption, but here are some numbers on the bowling participant to back it up:
🎳 Bowlers are beer drinkers - 54% consume beer on a monthly basis, which is 40% more than the average U.S. adult (21+).
🎳 Bowlers prefer domestic beer; US beer brands rank first among bowlers alcoholic beverage of choice.
🎳 Bowlers like to party - they are 2x more likely to go to bars or clubs than the average US adult 21+.

Our first EBar Beerwall® made its debut at Millwall Football Club's The Den last October - and as the new football season gets underway we have a pipeline of Beerwall installations planned for football stadia, arenas and racecourses up and down the country.
The EBar Beerwall can be configured to include as many individual EBar units as are required, with the most common configurations using between 1 and 6 units. And Beerwall only requires 1.5 metres of back-of-house space to hold kegs and coolers, or less than that if combined with a Tankbeer® system.
This small footprint means that we have been able to convert clients' dead space (such as unused kiosks and even cleaning cupboards) into productive bars capable of serving up to 200 pints per hour per metre of frontage.
This additional capacity helps venues bust queues at peak times, relieving pressure on manned bars and delighting fans who don't want to miss the action. Speak to us about a commercial assessment for mobile EBars or Beerwall at your venue.
