Saucy Brew Works Launches a Second Crowdfund Raise!

Link: https://www.startengine.com/saucy

You probably already know that Saucy Brew Works is in the middle of a major expansion phase. Throughout the past year we’ve opened three locations including a taproom in Orange, Ohio and two Brewpubs in Columbus, Ohio, and Detroit, Michigan. We are planning to continue expanding and have recently signed on to launch a brewery and brewpub in Charlotte, North Carolina. We will also break ground on our largest endeavor to date – a colossal production facility and beer garden in Independence, Ohio next door to Top Golf! 

We reaching out to let you know that once again, we’ve decided to bring our friends, family, and fans into the fold and have reopened our crowdfunding efforts with Start Engine. Through this raise, we’re able to offer equity shares in the business which results in a larger brand community, loyal brand ambassadors, more job opportunities as we expand into new markets, and ventures outside of our original scope (such as our coffee brand launched in 2020). 

Unlike many organizations throughout 2020-21, we’ve reached optimal growth in IRI reporting, and YOY sales including distribution and our restaurants. We’ve developed e-commerce platforms and apps, and we have received several awards for our community efforts, brewery, and kitchen. We don’t plan on slowing down, and we invite you to join in the excitement. 

Prior to our full launch, we’re offering “Early Bird” perks to our prior investors, which allows you to get bonus perks. If you invest in the first week, Saucy Brew, Works LLC will offer additional bonus units for all investments in the first days of our launch.

Update on Perks

Now that the campaign is closed, we have started to receive a lot of questions on when the perks will be shipped. We are working on all of that now. As many of you saw, our campaign exploded in the last week whereas we picked up 700+ investors in the last 10 days of the campaign! So we had to up all of our purchase orders and the remaining merchandise perks will take a few more weeks to get here. Our goal is to get these all out as quickly as possible. 

Secondly, we had a question come in regarding birthday beers. We will start to honor those immediately. To redeem, we ask you bring the following to the brewpubs with you: 1) Proof of investment, i.e. either the stock certificate or investor card once received AND 2) Valid I.D. (i.e. driver's license). We will allow for you to redeem your birthday beer at any point during the month of your birthday.

We cannot thank you enough for all of your investments and we cannot wait to meet all of you soon!

Ok Saucy Brew I still haven’t seen some of the items I was supposed to get after signing up to invest .. like my annual 6 pack of beer . I know that a company that is still growing rapidly usually won't pay dividends because it wants to invest as much as possible into further growth. With your fast growing expansion people are looking to see a return on the money that has been invested . With the growth you have you can buy back some shares Put it out there and let the investors decide

HOW INVESTING WORKS

Cancel anytime before 48 hours before a rolling close or the offering end date.

WHY STARTENGINE?

REWARDS

We want you to succeed and get the most out of your money by offering rewards and memberships!

SECURE

Your info is your info. We take pride in keeping it that way!

DIVERSE INVESTMENTS

Invest in over 200 start-ups and collectibles!

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.

With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.

At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.

Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.

StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.

For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.

For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.

Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.

Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.

Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.
