April 27, 2015
Minute Maid, a brand of Atlanta-based The Coca-Cola Co., is using its new marketing campaign to remind parents of all the wonderful things — big and small — that they do to make a positive difference in their children’s lives.
Operating under the motto “Off-centered beers for off-centered people,” it should come as no surprise that Dogfish Head Craft Brewery, Milton, Del., is not bashful about creativity. Dogfish Head’s lineup includes 34 beers with ingredients and brewing processes inspired by a range of ancient recipes, music, collaborations and Founder and President Sam Calagione’s own ideas.
When Dogfish Head Craft Brewery opened its brewpub in 1995 in Rehoboth Beach, Del., Founder and President Sam Calagione brewed on a homemade machine dubbed “Sir Hops Alot.” To keep up with the restaurant’s demand, Calagione used “Sir Hops Alot” to brew two to three times a day, five to six days a week.
The history of The Coca-Cola Co. is integrally tied in with the iconic marketing campaigns that made Coca-Cola the worldwide brand it is today. Although technological advances are changing the way it interacts with consumers, the company still sees a common goal for its outreach, explains Clyde Tuggle, senior vice president of global public affairs and communications for The Coca-Cola Co.
