Next Round: Maker Wine Co-Founders Sarah Hoffman and Kendra Kawala Are Betting Big on Canned Wine8/28/2020 Airing between regular episodes of the VinePair Podcast, “Next Round” explores the ideas and innovations that are helping drinks businesses adapt in a time of unprecedented change.

If you have a story or perspective to share, email us at [email protected]. In this “Next Round,” Maker Wine co-founders Sarah Hoffman and Kendra Kawala join VinePair Podcast host Zach Geballe to talk about their craft canned wine company — and how they are dispelling rumors that canned wine is “bad” by putting the focus on good wine from small and independent producers. Hoffman and Kawala started the company with no previous experience in the wine industry. As consumers, they were making purchasing decisions simply based on a wine’s label. They both also noticed that small winemakers behind bigger brands are often “one of the best-kept secrets” of the industry. With that in mind, the company set out to bring those winemakers to the forefront by packaging wines with the producers’ own names on the labels. The co-founders were drawn to cans from the start. Having worked in the craft beer industry, Hoffman was already familiar with the mobile canning process and knew that cans are a lighter option when shipping direct to consumers. With current trends, cans were also a great way of connecting with a younger demographic. Currently, the Northern California-based company partners with local California wineries, but moving forward they hope to partner with producers outside their home state. According to both Hoffman and Kawala, Maker Wine can be served in a glass when enjoying at home, but convenience is key — it’s just as good from the can.

But, much like wine, distinct styles of beer are typically developed by region, and the raw materials most readily available in that region. For wine, that tends to mean what grape varietal is grown in a specific area. Beer is different. For starters, almost all beer recipes are based on two-row or six-row barley, two types of grain that display similar, though not identical, flavor wherever they are grown. For this reason, beer styles developed regionally for reasons other than the distinction of the base ingredient. These reasons were many: Weather affected a brewer’s ability to lager beer; natural water chemistry and qualities like “hardness” dictated if pale or dark malt could be successfully brewed with; hops grew abundantly and were used in equal measure, or else they were imported and, therefore, used sparingly. Finally, the wild yeast of the region determined if the finished beer would display expressive fermentation character. or the flavors of its base ingredients. Though technology has rendered many of the reasons for regional styles obsolete, new beer styles continue to be created based on the ingenuity of brewers. The same four ingredients — hops, malt, water, and yeast — are being combined in new ways to create beers with novel characteristics that demand a style category of their own. These styles are categorized by their country or region of origin. Today, Czech pilsners are brewed in the U.S., American IPAs are brewed in Brazil, and Belgian witbiers are brewed in Spain. Like beer drinkers in search of new flavors, beer styles will only continue to disseminate. Cheers to the more than 100 ways we make and enjoy beer!
