WOMEN OF THE
BEVOLUTION
Women of the Bevolution is a social enterprise determined to provide resources and opportunities to women and non-binary beverage industry professionals. Our mission is to provide a platform that ignites and encourages the underrepresented voices in the beverage industry, fostering connection, empowerment, and shattering barriers once and for all.
Collectively we can create a better and more inclusive beverage and hospitality industry.
Since the launch of WOTB in 2019, the platform has grown and involved. Some of our milestones include:
The Brave Noise Global Beer Collaboration & Initiative - launched in 2021, Women of the Bevolution teamed up with Brienne Allan (former brewer at Notch Brewing and now co-owner and brewer at Sacred Profane Brewing) who ignited a #MeToo movement in craft beer after sharing her own story about sexism within the industry and called out to her Instagram followers if they had experienced discrimination in their work. Thousands replied and women around the globe shared their own personal stories in the beer industry. Ash and Brienne launched the Brave Noise global beer collaboration and initiative with a goal of a safe and discrimination-free beer industry. The collab was launched on July 7th, 2021 to honor those who have shared their stories and request action by asking breweries to be transparent with their policies/values, commit to the long-term work and brew the Brave Noise Pale Ale with a majority of proceeds supporting a charity or advocacy group dedicated to creating safe and inclusive spaces.
Over $50,000 in funding to nonprofits through the Antisexist Antiracist Proequality Beer Club
Over $41,000 in financial aid and resources including mental health support, job coaching and legal services through the Bevolution Brave Voices Fund, a collaboration with Another Round Another Rally
Over $23,000 in monetary support and 30+ hours of mentorship have been provided to 18 women & non-binary beverage industry professionals through the Bevolution Creators in Bev Grant (a collab with Beer is for Everyone) and Creator Launchpad Grant (a collab with Beer Kulture, Brave Noise and Brienne Allan)
Over half a million dollars raised for nonprofits around the world through the Brave Noise global beer/alcohol collaboration advocating for safe and inclusive spaces in beer/bev/alcohol.
