Happy to mention that we recently exited our craft beer investment. We acquired Anderson Valley Brewing Co. in December 2019 as a closely held business and operated it until last week. AVBC was a turn around project that required a lot of direct operational and marketing work that was made more difficult by the pandemic. Happy to say that after 5 years that saw a renovation of its distribution relationships and footprint, a restart of its export programs, a complete revision of its packaging and branding and the building of a consumer-facing marketing function from scratch we have now exited and are on to the next thing.

Cheers all.
