Beer-Themed Board Games

'Craft Beer the Board Game' Involves Collecting Resources for Recipes

— November 30, 2016 — Life-Stages
Craft Beer the Board Game was created by lovers of this beverage who wanted to capitalize on the current expansion of the craft beer market.

The board game starts with players drawing a 'Craft Brewer Recipe Card,' which allows them to unearth the various flavors and essences that go into beer. After players have completed their ingredient list to make an IPA, they then level up to create their 'Master Brewer Recipe,' and the first person to do this wins the game. The game throws curveballs when players pick up 'Event Cards.' These cards change the player's game with events such as "droughts" that require them to find an "alternate means of production."

Craft Beer the Board Game is ideal for alcohol aficionados, or for those who would like to learn more about this particular subject.
Trend Themes
1. Craft Beer - Craft beer-themed board games provide an opportunity to tap into the growing popularity of the craft beer market and engage consumers in a fun and interactive way.
2. Recipe Collection - Board games centered around collecting ingredients and creating recipes offer a chance to explore the concept of flavor combinations and encourage creativity.
3. Event Cards - Incorporating event cards into board games introduces an element of unpredictability and adaptability, providing opportunities for strategic decision-making and problem-solving.
Industry Implications
1. Board Game - The board game industry can leverage the popularity of craft beer to create unique and engaging gaming experiences that cater to beer enthusiasts and novices alike.
2. Craft Beer - Craft breweries can collaborate with board game designers to create branded board games that serve as marketing tools and engage consumers in a different dimension of their craft beer experience.
3. Alcohol Education - The alcohol education industry can use beer-themed board games as interactive learning tools to educate consumers about the brewing process, flavor profiles, and the craft beer industry as a whole.
