Local matches first, then toll-free.
What people call a brewery about
Most brewery calls are not about buying beer. People want to know the taproom hours, whether they can bring the dog or the kids, whether a food truck is coming, or whether they can book the space for a birthday or a work event. Private bookings and distribution accounts are where a phone call turns into real money.
A number that spells BREW or BEER is easy to recall and says what you are.
Where to put it
- Coasters, cans and labels. These travel to homes and other bars.
- Taproom chalkboards and event flyers.
- Sales sheets for bars and shops that carry your beer, so buyers can reorder easily.
Events and private bookings
Trivia nights, release parties and private rentals all bring calls. A memorable number makes it easy for someone who enjoyed one event to book the next one.
Calls and texts
Calls ring the phone you choose, and missed calls go to its voicemail. Texts arrive as email, which works for party-booking requests with a date and headcount. Three- and four-letter words such as ALE, BREW and BEER are among the easiest to find as local numbers.
Which of these words you can get
The shorter the word, the more numbers can spell it. Toll-free is one national pool, so a word that is taken in your area code can still be free there.
