Quarantine beer sales idea of the day: Funky Buddha selling homebrew kits for its newest IPA

May 4, 2020Chris Crowell

Funky Buddha homebrew kit

If customers can’t come to your brewery, to-go sales can only do so much. The always innovative Funky Buddha Brewery is taking things one step further by selling a more complete Funky Buddha experience with a homebrewing kit for its newest core beer, the Chant IPA. A perfect (higher price point) idea for a craft beer quarantine customer.

Each Chant IPA homebrew kit includes detailed instructions, reusable equipment, Citra and Mosaic hops, specialty malts, yeast and other ingredients to brew and ferment 1 or 5 gallons of the tropical IPA at home. 

“As many tap rooms have closed their doors to the public in order to combat COVID-19, craft beer lovers find themselves missing the brewery experience,” said Kyle Westfall, Founder & President of Craft a Brew. “We’re thrilled to help folks turn their own kitchens into Funky Buddha satellite breweries and embark on a new hobby as we all adapt to spending much more time at home.” 

Funky Buddha Brewery x Craft a Brew Chant IPA 1 gallon beer making kits are available on CraftaBrew.com for $48. 1 and 5 gallon Recipe Kits, which only include ingredients, are available for homebrewers who already have their own equipment. 

12-oz can six packs of Chant IPA are available throughout Florida, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and Washington D.C., for homebrewers who want to perform a side by side taste test of their homebrewed creation and cans straight from Funky Buddha Brewery. 

Funky Buddha Brewery’s Chant IPA, whether store bought or homebrewed, clocks in at just 99 calories and a drinkable 4.2 percent ABV. Every crisp sip delivers major mango, peach and citrus hop character.
