Growing Beer to Bags: Say hello to 5 NEW Beer to Bags Items!
When Beer to Bags (“B2B”) launched in 2021, the goal had always been to find ways to turn a waste stream into a revenue stream by upcycling empty brewing malt bags into durable and fashionable tote bags. Since then, the goal remains the same as supply chains and production processes have improved, 10,000+ malt bags have been diverted from landfills, and the brand continues to grow.
To continue growing B2B, we have been working hard on product development to bring you 5 new additions to the B2B portfolio. Pictured below are the “Brew Buddy” Top Zipper Pouch, “Pint Pouch” Front Zipper Pouch, “Hop Holster” Small Hip Sling, “Barley Belt” Crossbody Bag, and “It’s a Cinch!” Drawstring Cinch Bag.
In true B2B spirit, these are all made from upcycled malt bags and they are fully customizable with your artwork, along with your choice of zipper, strap and hardware colors (where applicable). Now there is a B2B bag for every occasion! A special shout out to Narragansett Brewing, SeaThirst Creative, Wicked Weed Brewing, BrewFlowers and Hoptown Handles for letting us create some mock-ups with your branding!
