Monster Beverage to acquire Longmont’s Canarchy (Oscar Blues) for $330M

Well shit.

Another local business sells out.

I guess I get it. Money IS money, it's just a bummer to see yet more predatory capitalism eat more great little companies in my home town.

https://www.timescall.com/2022/01/13/monster-beverage-to-acquire-longmonts-canarchy-for-330m/

Canarchy Craft Brewery Collective LLC, a nationwide collective of independent craft beer companies including Oskar Blues Brewery, is being sold to Monster Beverage Corp. (Nasdaq: MNST) for $330 million in cash.

The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2022. Monster’s organizational structure for its existing energy beverage business will remain unchanged. Canarchy will function independently, retaining its own organizational structure and team led by CEO Tony Short.

The Canarchy portfolio includes Oskar Blues and its hard seltzer brand Wild Basin, Florida-based Cigar City Brewing, Utah’s Wasatch Brewery, Michigan-based Perrin Brewing Co., Texas-based Deep Ellum Brewing Co. and Utah-based Squatters Craft Beer.

β€œThe team at Canarchy is thrilled to be joining Monster,” Short said in a statement. β€œWe look forward to capitalizing on the combined expertise of Monster and CANarchy to further strengthen our current alcoholic product offerings, expand our product portfolio to meet the ever-changing needs of our customers and to grow our business.”

Acquisition of Canarchy provides Monster with β€œa springboard from which to enter the alcoholic beverage sector,” said Monster’s vice chairman and co-CEO, Hilton Schlosberg. β€œThe acquisition will provide us with a fully in-place infrastructure, including people, distribution and licenses, along with alcoholic beverage development expertise and manufacturing capabilities in this industry.”

The Boulder-based Brewers Association said in a statement released Thursday that it is β€œaware” of the sale and that, β€œBased on our current information, CANarchy meets the Brewers Association’s craft brewer definition under the ownership of Monster Energy as presently constituted. In this instance, Monster is not a beverage alcohol industry member, so this new ownership structure does not affect CANarchy’s independence in regard to the beverage alcohol industry.”

This is a developing story and will be updated.

TIL: In the late 80s, Pepsi released a limited edition version of their famous "Pepsi Puffin" which featured a Pepsi-like beverage named after Pepsi. They didn't bother to sell it for another 10 years until the Pepsi-branded Pepsi Monster came out of the bottle.

Brewers Association statement surrounding CANarchy Craft Brewery Collective’s pending sale to Monster Beverage

The Brewers Association (BA) is aware of CANarchy Craft Brewery Collective’s pending sale to Monster Beverage. Based on our current information, CANarchy meets the Brewers Association’s craft brewer definition under the ownership of Monster Energy as presently constituted. In this instance, Monster is not a beverage alcohol industry member, so this new ownership structure does not affect CANarchy's independence in regard to the beverage alcohol industry. The Brewers Association defines small and independent craft brewers as:

  • Small: Annual production of 6 million barrels of beer or less (approximately 3 percent of U.S. annual sales). Beer production is attributed to a brewer according to rules of alternating proprietorships.
  • Independent: Less than 25 percent of the craft brewery is owned or controlled (or equivalent economic interest) by a beverage alcohol industry member that is not itself a craft brewer.
  • Brewer: Has a TTB Brewer’s Notice and makes beer.
