Cheers to Change: Emree Woods and the Rise of Rightside Brewing

Starting a food or beverage business is even harder, but an NA beverage company that is just emerging and people are just starting to learn about it. One of the biggest challenges for any beverage producer is a sips to lips and providing an opportunity for people to taste in general, but I think particularly in the non-alcoholic beverage space, because it really catches people by surprise how delicious all of these new beverages are.
Ever thought your pregnancy cravings could lead to a groundbreaking business? For Emree Woods, it did just that. When she found herself missing the taste of beer during her first pregnancy in 2017, she realized there was a gaping hole in the market for authentic, great-tasting non-alcoholic beers. This spark of inspiration led to the birth of Rightside Brewing, the first female-led non-alcoholic brewery in the United States.
In this episode of 'For All Drinks', host Marcos Salazar sits down with Emree to explore her journey from homebrewing in her kitchen to partnering with Big Kettle Brewers to bring her vision to life. Emree shares the ups and downs of starting a non-alcoholic beverage company, the innovations driving the industry, and the importance of creating a community around wellness and inclusivity.
She dives into the inspiration behind her initial flavors and discusses her ambitious plans for expanding beyond Georgia. Emree also touches on the unique challenges posed by COVID-19 and how it impacted product trials in the non-alcoholic space. Her story is a testament to creativity, perseverance, and the power of turning personal needs into a business that benefits many. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that promises to change how you think about socializing without alcohol.
