Elaine Gillespie proposes a campaign for Samuel Adams to capitalize on the 2016 Olympics in the UK. She identifies three types of craft beer drinkers - enthusiasts, explorers, and loyalists - who seek variety but also a reliable option.

It launches a "Craft Beer Olympics" encouraging home brewing and celebrates lesser-known sports. Activation includes sponsorship of the Olympics launch party, a branded 6-pack with sample beers, a bus tour competition, and content through partners Buzzfeed and influencers. The goal is to position Samuel Adams as

enter their consideration.
Then review the opportunity to see how
we can optimise the sponsorship of the
Olympics.

https://www.brewersassociation.org/communicating-craft/6-characteristics-of-millennial-beer-drinkers-you-need-to-know/
6. What connects them?
‣ They actively seek alternatives to the
big brewers like AB or Diageo.
‣ Craft beer affords them easy
opportunities to experiment and
express their individuality.
‣ Choosing craft beer helps them feel
good about supporting their
community and small businesses.
‣ However, all of this comes at a
price….

7. …experimentation with smaller craft
beers brings inherent risk that has the
potential to affect a big night adversely.
My favourite
craft beer
isn't sold in
this pub/shop
- what can I
have?
If I choose the
wrong beer I
could be left dry
at my friends
house/I will have
wasted money in
the pub.
If I make the
wrong choice I
will become
unnerved and
will decide to
default to a big
brand beer that
doesn't
represent who I
am.
8. Insight
Craft beer drinking can feel like playing Russian
roulette with your night out. Craft beer drinkers
need a lower risk go-to beer that they can rely on
without sacrificing their beliefs.
9. Let’s not pretend that Samuel Adams
can hide its scale and convince craft
drinkers that it is small to be credible.
Instead let’s leverage our large scale and
availability and show how it, and our
absolute dedication to holding on to our
craft beer heritage, means we could and
should be that go-to craft beer.
Opportunity
10. Craft beer drinkers love
supporting the small
independents but get
nervous at the lack of
scale and availability that
comes with always
choosing a smaller brand.
The Idea
Sam Adams is unashamedly
a big beer that remains
actively committed to
retaining and nurturing its
craft beer credentials.
The Olympics gathers the worlds
best amateurs to compete at an
epic scale.
“Power to the little guy”
Lets celebrate the brilliant
things that anyone can do
when they do something they
really love.
11. Samuel Adams is a success story with humble roots, he was the
little guy at one stage and to this day actively supports other little
guys.
Reasons to believe
Craft beer drinkers are ambitious and successful people, they
see themselves as the little guy done good.
Craft beer drinkers want to connect with businesses who give
back to their community, so this is an opportunity to highlight
what Samuel Adams is doing.
Olympic athletes are the worlds best amateurs and are the
sporting equivalent of what Samuel Adams has achieved in a
craft beer.
12. What does this mean?
To show their support of the little guy in the craft beer community and create
fame for Samuel Adams we will create a rousing campaign which will sees
Samuel Adams as the big beer which supports small craft breweries.
Using the theme of the Olympics, we are going to create the “Craft Beer
Olympics* that encourages people to become craft brewers in their own right
and helps us to champion smaller craft brewers at the same time – using our
altruism to create affinity and adoption for Samuel Adams.
We will partner with Buzzfeed as our main media channel. With them we will
create a series of videos that launch the campaign and create new-news
throughout with additional content.
To create opportunities for content capture there will be experiential activity,
as well as off-trade and on-trade shopper marketing support (although that
might be ex-budget!)
“Power to the little guy”
*Working title only as we won’t really be able to call it this.
13. Activation
The Beer Olympics
We will hold a launch night in
UBrew, London to announce
Samuel Adams sponsorship of the
“little guys” this summer with the
inaugural Craft Beer Olympics, at
the end of August .
To get maximum reach, from then
we will encourage people to take
part via content distributed by out
media partner – Buzzfeed – and
involvement with other influencers.
Throughout the Olympics we will
create new news around our
campaign.
The 4-pack 6pack
Distributed in off-licences branded 6-
packs of Samuel Adams will actually
only house 4 bottle of our product with
2 left for customers to use to trial two
other craft beers of their choice.
Tapping into their need to experiment
and support the small guys with the
safety of the big guy.
A partnership with Shazam will also
be activated by placing scan images
on packaging and posters in off
licences and pubs. This will act as a
recruitment tool for the Craft Beer
Olympics.
Lesser known sports will be the
theme of additional content
promoted via Buzzfeed articles and
content on social.
This shows Samuel Adams
supporting sporting “little guys” too.
We will run a bus tour across the
UK, giving people a chance to try
the sports and take part in heats
for the for the Craft Beer Olympics,
where we will select the best brews
to be judged by Jim Koch at the
Beer Olympics final in London at
the end of the real Olympics.
Throughout we will collect content
for online consumption.
