The program launched in November with the collaboration of a wade systems operator, Reusable solutions, and Eco Friendly Beer, over a dozen breweries, cideries, and eco-conscious consumers! And to think - I haven't even dropped mine off yet! The program saves not only on the funds and cost to manufacture and transport the plastic - but provides a much-needed commodity for craft beverage makers, and created a recycling stream for ones that can be washed and reused. I hope this means the Vermont Can Carrier Reuse & Recycle Initiative can grow https://www.brewbound.com/news/vermont-reuse-recycle-initiative-rescues-10000-plastic-can-carriers-in-first-2-months Dry January, for some, doesn't mean taking the month off from anything - and there are several THC and CBD beverage “enhancers” that are answering the call for those looking for options. Dry January, by the way, not as new as some think - apparently dating back to the 1940s. So apparently it's from “the Good ole days” we always hear about, though it really started gaining steam in the states about 11 years back. The good thing is that alcohol-free beer, seltzers, coffee and drink starters with CBD or THC are all available (in some areas), and it won't cost much more than a liquor-store run.

The brand is widely available in the U.K. and has a significant foothold in Australia along with a small, but expanding, presence in the U.S. In our interview, co-founder Stuart Forsyth spoke about why he describes the package design as an “exercise in restraint,” and why Minor Figures takes a brand-first approach to marketing.

A former software engineer, John Coogan says that programmers are often pondering ways to “automate ourselves out of a job.” Coogan, who in 2013 co-founded fast-growing meal replacement products brand Soylent, has a similar perspective when it comes to entrepreneurship. In a recent interview featured in this week’s episode of Taste Radio, Coogan, who recently stepped down as Soylent’s CTO, said that “as entrepreneurs, we should be thinking about how we can manage ourselves out of a job.” Amid the brand’s ongoing expansion from direct-to-consumer sales and into retail stores, Coogan explained that it was important for Soylent, “to find people that are essentially the right tool for the job… and that have seen these challenges before.” In recent months the company has brought on several experienced CPG executives, including former KeVita chief strategy officer Bryan Crowley as president, to support its retail expansion. Coogan also discussed how Soylent’s e-commerce-only model enabled the company “to start collecting data on who our customer was, as well as get product in their hands much faster.” Perhaps most importantly, the business strategy presented Soylent with a streamlined path to retail. “You’ll have customers that can actually go and drive adoption at retail stores because they’ve heard about you online," he said. Also included in this episode: a conversation with influential food and lifestyle blogger Olivia Ku. Ku, who has a following of nearly 200,000 users on Instagram, spoke about how brands can best interact with influencers and why successful partnerships require a true sense of “added value” for both parties. And in this week’s Elevator Talk, we spoke with Shayne Malone, who is the founder and CEO of Zavu, a brand of cold-pressed, HPP juices made from indigenous Brazilian fruits. Show notes: 2:24: WEED Deal: The hosts discuss the Constellation Brands’ recent acquisition of a 9.9 percent stake in cannabis producer Canopy Growth Corporation for $191 million. Constellation, which makes and markets a variety of well-known beer, wine and spirits products,d that the deal is aimed at developing and marketing cannabis-infused beverages that do not contain alcohol. John Craven notes that Constellation is preparing for the gold rush into legal marijuana, assuming relaxed regulation is forthcoming. Jon Landis discusses how current cannabis-infused beverage brands are wading into the market and educating consumers about dosages. 11:15: Interview: John Coogan, Co-Founder, Soylent -- John Coogan is a co-founder of Soylent and served as Soylent’s CTO until stepping down a few months ago. He recently sat down with John and Mike for a conversation about his role with the company and how Soylent, which until recently has been as been sold exclusively online, is positioning itself for massive growth at retail. For new brand owners, listen to why Coogan views direct-to-consumer as “super important for early-stage food and beverage companies.” 39:18: Interview: Olivia Ku, Founder, LoveHealthOK: Mike Schneider recently met with highly influential food and lifestyle blogger Olivia Ku. In a conversation recorded at the offices of Califia Farms in downtown L.A., Ku explained her path to becoming a social media guru and offered advice on how brands can most effectively engage influencers. 59:45: Elevator Talk: Shayne Malone, Founder/CEO, Zavu: Shane Malone is the founder and CEO of Zavu, a brand of cold-pressed, HPP juices made from indigenous Brazilian fruits, including caju, acerola and cupuacu.
