InvestBev Commits $50 Million to Strengthen the Distillery and Bourbon Barrel Industry Amid Tightened Banking Conditions

InvestBev, a leading private equity firm in the adult beverage sector, has announced a strategic $50 million commitment through its credit arm to support the distillery and bourbon barrel industry. With traditional banks scaling back lending in this space, InvestBev is stepping in to provide crucial capital to distillery owners and barrel investors across the country.

"The bourbon industry holds immense potential, but conventional financial institutions have become hesitant to support it, often offering restrictive terms or pulling out entirely," said Brian Rosen, Founder and General Partner of InvestBev. "At InvestBev, we understand the unique value and challenges of this asset class. This investment reflects our deep passion for the bourbon business and our commitment to fostering its growth."

Driving Innovation and Resilience in the Bourbon Industry

With significant expertise in the adult beverage sector, InvestBev has earned a reputation as a reliable financial partner for the U.S. bourbon industry. As traditional lending options tighten, InvestBev is stepping forward with tailored financial solutions that allow distilleries and barrel owners to unlock the full potential of their inventory.

"InvestBev has long been a trusted ally in the U.S. bourbon industry," Rosen continued. "When banks pull back, we're here to provide the financing that empowers entrepreneurs and industry innovators to thrive."

Supporting Industry Partners Across the Country

InvestBev’s $50 million investment is already making a difference. Jake Ireland, founder and CEO of Off Hours Bourbon, a brand challenging traditional bourbon norms, shared his excitement about the partnership. "We're thrilled to collaborate with InvestBev Credit. This capital partnership will enable us to expand our barrel inventory and production capacity, bringing our unique bourbon to more consumers."

Through this strategic investment, InvestBev is reaffirming its commitment to fueling innovation and growth in the bourbon and distillery sectors, building strong partnerships that contribute to industry resilience and long-term success.
