We Are Creating Great Handcrafted Beers And Good Jobs in The USA!

What would you do for a Fat Cat Handcrafted Beer? If you’ve watched our video, you saw Birthday Pete was willing to jump out of a perfectly good airplane. If you haven’t seen it, get busy like the previous 156,000+ viewers and spend the next 3 minutes and 45 seconds of your life LYAO so be sure you pay attention and turn it up! 

 The Skinny On Who We Are 

Ok, so now that you’ve seen our pal, Birthday Pete, do something he never imagined (because "nobody dies on their birthday") for a Fat Cat Lager, here's the skinny on who we are. WE ARE THE FAT CAT BEER COMPANY! 

Fat Cat Lager first strutted its way into some very lucky households way back in 1995. Actually, since then Ray, our brew master, upgraded the quality of our recipe or  "Statement Of Process," for you beer geeks, to create an award worthy Vienna styled lager. We are an environmentally conscientious group which leans heavily toward cans because they generate a much smaller carbon footprint than glass, the great taste lasts longer in a can and cans are welcome where glass is not. We are so passionate about the making of “award worthy” handcrafted beers, that it is making us thirsty just writing about it! With your pledge, we can expedite our efforts! Rex Halfpenny, a perennial beer judge at the Great American Beer Festival held in Colorado each year, after tasting our Fat Cat Lager, said “...you should enter the beer in the GABF,” so maybe we will or not because we are about great beer, not awards!

So as not to be a one trick pony, we decided we needed several new handcrafted versions of Fat Cat so our original Fat Cat wouldn’t be lonely. In fact, Fat Cat “Sultans of Wheat,” a kick ass, Belgian-styled wheat beer, is on its way to our distributors in Atlanta as we speak. The others shown in the graphics above will arrive later this year. With our great looking cans piquing the curiosity of those who have never tried our craft beer, people are buying Fat Cat Lager because they just love the can (btw, did we mention that some genius spent $59 on eBay for an empty can of our beer; one stinking can! Hello!) and they keep buying it because they love the beer. At least that is what they are telling us in Atlanta where we just launched the brand and in Naples, FL, where a certain cigar bar says Fat Cat Lager was its NUMBER 1 seller before our predecessors couldn’t fill orders. Hell, we even have a fan club on Facebook! The list goes on about the number of people who love our beer with no opportunity to buy it but with your pledge that will change and so will the unemployment rate in several American households. You will be rewarded; just look to the right (or if you are using Explorer look below if rewards do not appear on the side) and please make a pledge!*⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒⇒

Here's where you come in!!

Starting this month, August 2012, we will begin bringing great new handcrafted beers to your tailgate, softball game, hockey game, poker game, rugby match, swimming pool, golf course, beach, boat... Ok, you get the point! We have quite a bit of pent up demand, but NO bank is willing to fork it over to the small business operator. Aren't we all tired of hearing that crap! We need to grow and create full time jobs but as we paraphrase the great Aloe Blacc "We need a dollar, a dollar, a dollar is what we need."

This is your chance to weigh in as a Fat Cat Beer Company VIP. Please make a pledge today and receive some great Fat Cat Beer Company schwag you cannot get anywhere else!* We would be happy to give you beer, but we like to follow the rules. ;) Right now, as you sit reading this, our brew master, Ray is working on our "Shawshank Injunction Pale Ale™" and our "Beale St. Brown Ale™" to accompany our "Sultans of Wheat™" and original "Fat Cat Lager™." A winter seasonal brew is also in the offing. We have distributors in some very key markets that can't wait to get the beer and we have local Fat Cats (our name for local sales consultants) and back office staff ready to come on board but without capital we are moving like a snail.

WE NEED YOUR HELP! Please become a part of the success story and make your pledge today, spread the word about this campaign and help someone in the USA get back to work. Thank you for your support!
