Ask Your Peers  Craft Brewery - New Venture - California (Closed)

Small, new, craft brewery opening in the next month. Master brewer has experience. Does not fit BrewPak parameters because of Tap Room sales percentage. May not fit Hanover because of potential Tap Room operating hours. What other markets/specialty programs can I access directly or what MGA/Wholesalers have access to such?

Hi Bill, we write a lot of our small craft breweries with Liberty and Allied, including new ventures. Travelers has a program as well, but it's through their middle market segment, so the account needs to be in the $30k premium range. Good luck!

Try Fairmont Specialty - Tom Gustafson 262.649.0784 if Lisa's recommendations don't work out.

Hi Bill,

Thank you for using CompleteMarkets!

Our FindIt Market search is a valuable tool that enables you to search by market and state to find companies that can help you write this risk. 

Unfortunately, I couldn't find 
any companies under the specific "Craft Brewery " coverage type in California. I was able to find a company that provides a National Craft Brewers Property and Casualty Insurance Program in California, here is a link to the search results. 

I'm unsure if this what you're looking for but I suggest that you submit a quote request to them to see if they can write your risk.

If you are ready to submit a quote request, click here.

Good luck!
