Hotel / Restaurant Cold

Subject Line 70% GP craft beer for your bar menu
Hi [Name], I'm Barry from Kildare Brewing Co. — independent craft brewery based at Lock 13 Brewpub in Sallins, Co. Kildare. I'm writing because I think our beers would work well on the drinks menu at [Hotel/Restaurant Name]. Here's why hotels and restaurants are picking us up: - 70% GP at €7.00 pour price (€2.08 cost per pint from a 30L keg) - 5 styles that pair with food: lager with fish, red ale with steak, IPA with burger - Unfiltered & unpasteurised — genuine craft quality your guests will notice - Cans available for room service, mini bar, and functions (330ml, from €2.00/unit) - We deliver ourselves — Kildare and Dublin, reliable and direct We already supply Cliff at Lyons and Killashee Hotel, and I'd love to add [Hotel/Restaurant Name] to that list. I'm offering new on-trade accounts a staff tasting session (15 minutes, no cost) and 10% off the first order so there's minimal risk to try us. Could I arrange a tasting for your bar team? I can work around your schedule. Best, Barry Flanagan Kildare Brewing Co. 086 369 1554 | barry@kildarebrewing.ie kildarebrewing.ie
