Lucid Brewing Acquires American Sky Brewing

imageFrom American Sky:

Lucid Brewing of Minnetonka, MN announced today that it has acquired American Sky Brewing of Hudson, WI. The friendly agreement was reached over many rounds of beer and offers growth opportunities for both companies. The combined companies will operate under Lucid Brewing, LLC. but will maintain separate brand identities.

Under Lucid’s management, American Sky will continue to operate its popular Hudson tap room, The Hangar and distribute throughout Western WI. Draft and bottle production is expected to move to Lucid’s Minnetonka facility before the end of summer.

“Having Lucid on board represents a positive growth for the American Sky brand,” says Kati Schenz, General Manager of American Sky. “The Lucid team brings a different set of skills to the table. They have experience with larger scale production and a wider distribution network which is exciting for growing American Sky”.

“We are really excited about the American Sky team and taproom,” says Lucid co-owner Jon Messier. “Since we began in 2011, our focus has been on production and distribution. We are one of a handful of breweries without a taproom, and running one is not in our wheelhouse. The American Sky team is talented and we are excited to work together to improve the customer experience at The Hangar.”
