    Jackson, MS (PRWEB) July 27, 2011

    Beer Universe, Inc. (http://www.beer-universe.com), a leading online beer community / e-commerce website that revolutionizes the online experience for beer enthusiasts, today announced a partnership with Red Mountain Entertainment for the 2011 Top of the Hops Beer Festival in Jackson, MS. The partnership will utilize Beer Universe’s proprietary technology, database, and analytics to deliver an iPhone application to approximately 2,500 patrons on July 30, 2011.

    The craft beer industry has seen explosive growth over the past few years. According to the Brewers Association, small and independent craft brewers saw volume increase 11% and retail sales dollars increase 12% in 2010. This represents a growth of over 1 million barrels or 14 million craft cases. This year, the Beer Institute ranked Mississippi as the 13th highest beer consumption state per capita in the country.

    The 2nd annual Top of the Hops – Jackson Beer Festival will showcase the growing popularity of craft beers from around the country and the world in a relaxed and friendly environment. Patrons will receive a commemorative sampling mug and have access to unlimited, two-ounce sampling of over 150 craft beers in the Lazy Magnolia Beer and Blue Moon Beer Gardens. The festival will also feature the Sam Adams Brew University Education Area where patrons will enjoy beer seminars such as Cooking with Beer, Food Pairings, Brewing 101 and other beer education sessions.

    Commenting on the partnership, Jay Wilson part of the marketing team for Red Mountain Entertainment said, “Beer Universe presents a unique opportunity to enhance the experience of patrons at beer festivals. This is our first partnership with them, and we anticipate expanding the partnership in the future to the other beer festivals we manage.”

    Specifically, the Top of the Hops beer festival application powered by Beer Universe will allow users to view the list of breweries and beers at the festival, rate and take notes on beers, and see additional information about festival events. Patrons will be able to retrieve their ratings through the application as well as online through Beer Universe.

We believe that our application will bring additional value to the Top of the Hops beer festival and will enable patrons to engage with the beer they try long after the festival is done.”
