  2. Ivanhoe Park Brewing Co. is Launching an Equity Crowdfunding Campaign on StartEngine!

    Leave a Comment

    We’re thrilled to announce that Ivanhoe Park Brewing Co. is about to launch a capital-raising campaign on StartEngine, and we can’t wait to share this exciting moment with you. This campaign is a major milestone in our journey to grow and expand our vision, all while opening our doors to you—our community of supporters, beer enthusiasts, and investors.

    Reflecting on how far we’ve come, we’re truly humbled by the passion and support of everyone who has been part of our journey so far. Now, as we look forward to the future, we’re inviting you to join us in an entirely new way through equity crowdfunding on StartEngine!


    What Exactly is Equity Crowdfunding?

    Equity crowdfunding allows eligible companies to raise capital from the public, offering a rare opportunity for everyday investors to own a part of the business. Traditionally, raising capital was limited to accredited investors who met strict requirements, but with the passing of the JOBS Act, companies can now offer their securities directly to the public through platforms like StartEngine. This opens up the exciting opportunity for a broader audience—our community included—to invest in our brewery.

    Through Regulation Crowdfunding, we’re able to share our mission and growth plans with you, giving our supporters a chance to become part-owners of Ivanhoe Park Brewing Co. As an investor, you’ll hold a piece of our company and, if we continue to grow and succeed, you’ll have the chance to benefit from our success.


    Why Should I Invest in Ivanhoe Park Brewing Co.?

    Here are just a few reasons why investing in Ivanhoe Park Brewing Co. could be a great choice:

    • Reason #1: A Proven Track Record of Success
      Ivanhoe Park Brewing Co. has established a strong local presence and has won accolades for our unique brews. We’re consistently expanding our product line and growing our reach within the Orlando community and beyond.
    • Reason #2: Strong Community Ties
      We’ve built our brand around community values and deep local connections. By investing, you’re supporting a company that truly values its community and actively contributes to the local culture.
    • Reason #3: Exciting Growth Potential
      With increasing demand for our products, recent partnerships, and expanding distribution channels, we’re poised for significant growth. New developments in the surrounding area mean new opportunities for expanding our audience, both locally and regionally.

    What’s Next?

    If you’re excited to learn more about our campaign and potentially become an investor, here’s how to get involved:

    1. Follow our Social Media
      We will be updating when we are live on Start Engine on our Social Media, where you’ll find detailed information on our growth plans, financials, investor benefits, and much more.
    2. Sign Up for a Free StartEngine Account
      Creating an account on StartEngine is free and easy. Once you’re signed up, you’ll have full access to our campaign and the opportunity to make an investment if you choose to.

  5. 2023 Ivanhoe Park Brewing Co. Annual Letter

    Leave a Comment

    Dear Friends and Supporters of Ivanhoe Park Brewing Co.,

    As we celebrate the close of 2023, we’re grateful for the support that has helped us achieve our milestones. Our commitment to community remains at the core of our mission. Community Partnerships with Make-A-Wish, Orlando Sports Foundation, Coalition for the Homeless, Second Harvest Foodbank, Pet Alliance of Greater Orlando, the Down Syndrome Association, and many more reflect our dedication to giving back and supporting causes that matter.

    In the realm of sports and entertainment, we’ve forged strong alliances with leading teams such as the Orlando Solar Bears, Osceola Magic, and XFL Guardians. Our ongoing bets, like the one with Alamo Beer Co. and the XFL Brahmas, have brought an exciting element to our partnerships.

    Venturing into new territories has been a significant part of our journey. From being on cruise ships with Margaritaville at Sea to featuring at prominent venues like the Orange County Convention Center and the newly branded Kia Center, our presence has expanded remarkably. Collaborations with resorts and establishments such as Westgate Resorts, Ole Red, Sud’s Saloon, and Sapphire Falls Resort have been instrumental in broadening our footprint.

    Recognition and accolades have further fueled our commitment to brewing excellence. Awards such as the US Open Beer Championship Silver for Tupac and Bronze for Masquerade White Stout, Florida Best Beer Gold for Guavacation and Silver for Tupac ShaPorter, and local acknowledgments like Orlando Magazine’s Best of ORL and Orlando Weekly’s Best Local Beer continue to inspire us.

    Our taproom events have been a cornerstone of community engagement. Monthly events like the Florida Vintage Market, Family Day, IPBCo Run Club, Yoga at the Brewery, and the Orlando Parking Lot Party have fostered a sense of camaraderie among our patrons.

    Our global reach has expanded significantly this year, thanks to partnerships with Visit Orlando and recognized publications like Cosmopolitan UK, Style Canada, and Wanderlust UK Travel Magazine. Locally, we’re honored to be recognized by Orlando Business Journal as one of Florida’s fastest-growing second-stage companies, a testament to our commitment to quality and innovation.

    Lastly, our involvement in offsite events, from local festivals to commemorative milestones like the Orange County Library’s 100th Anniversary and Orlando Fringe Festival with private label beers, has allowed us to connect with diverse communities and share our passion for craft beer.

    Thank you for being part of our journey in 2023. Your support has been invaluable, and we look forward to continuing our shared journey in the years ahead.

    Sincerely,

    Glenn Closson

  6. Craft Beer Culture: How Craft Breweries Drive Local Economies

    Leave a Comment

    Craft breweries have become integral parts of local communities, providing more than just excellent beer; they also play a significant role in boosting the economy and fostering community development. Ivanhoe Park Brewing Company, nestled in the heart of Orlando, exemplifies this intersection between craft beer culture and economic impact.

    The Economic Ripples of Craft Breweries

    Craft breweries, like Ivanhoe Park Brewing, are catalysts for economic growth. They create jobs, not only within the brewery but also in ancillary industries such as agriculture (for sourcing ingredients), manufacturing (for equipment), and hospitality (for related services). By offering employment opportunities, these breweries contribute to the reduction of local unemployment rates and strengthen the workforce.

    Revitalizing Neighborhoods

    Beyond job creation, craft breweries help revitalize neighborhoods. Taprooms often become community hubs, attracting locals and tourists alike. Ivanhoe Park Brewing’s taproom serves as a meeting ground where people gather, fostering a sense of camaraderie and community pride. This influx of foot traffic revitalizes neighborhoods, stimulating other local businesses like restaurants, hotels, and retail shops.

    Brewery Tourism: An Economic Driver

    Craft breweries have also become a significant driver of tourism. Breweries, including Ivanhoe Park Brewing, draw visitors seeking unique experiences. Craft beer enthusiasts are known to embark on beer trails and tours, exploring different breweries within a region. This influx of tourists boosts the hospitality sector, generating revenue for hotels, restaurants, and other attractions.

    Supporting Local Businesses and Agriculture

    Ivanhoe Park Brewing’s commitment to using locally sourced ingredients supports nearby farms and businesses. By procuring local produce, they contribute to the sustainability of local agriculture while promoting a farm-to-table approach, thus fostering a cycle of economic support within the community.

    Conclusion

    In summary, craft breweries like Ivanhoe Park Brewing Company are more than beer producers; they’re vital components of the local economic ecosystem. Through job creation, community engagement, tourism promotion, and support for local businesses, these breweries positively impact and contribute to the vibrancy and growth of the areas they call home.

    By enjoying a pint of craft beer at Ivanhoe Park Brewing Company, patrons not only savor exceptional brews but also play a part in bolstering the local economy and community.
