Episode description

If you stab Michael Amann, he’ll bleed craft beer. He started in this industry as a fan, landed an entry level distribution job, worked his way to sales and then decided to open a brewery. 


Maybe lucky for him that didn’t work out but instead, he went where most brewery owners think all the money in the craft beer industry is hiding. The middle tier. He opened Adena Distributing and set about being the grease that lubed the route from a brewery’s fermenter to the customer’s face. 


Adena distributing was the rare distributor that loved the beer, the brewers and the events that promote it. Of course, Michael is telling his story on this show because profitability seems to pass the middle tier by as much as the supplier tier. 


And that is the story he’s here to tell.
