Before she was cofounder and chief brand officer of Denizens Brewing in D.C.'s Maryland suburbs, attorney Julie Verratti worked for the US Small Business Administration. Her working knowledge of government can be a valuable for brewery owners and operators across the country as they chart a course through a difficult and heartbreaking winter wave of COVID.
In this special episode, Verratti offers a crash course in connecting with elected officials to lobby for the support that breweries need—from the federal down to the local level. She also takes a deep dive into the operational measures that Denizens has put into place to continue serving customers while keeping staff safe.
