14th Star and Crafted Exports

Crafted Exports, the leading international distributor for American craft beers and spirits, has partnered with Man in the Moon to bring the best Vermont has to offer to Sweden!

We at 14th Star Brewery are honored by the opportunity to represent Vermont craft beer in Sweden’s Stockholm Showcase! Fun fact: our brewery’s name ’14th Star’ is a reference to our pride as Vermonters and Vermont being admitted to the United States as the fourteenth state back in 1791. We are a small award-winning craft brewery out of St. Albans Vermont known for producing a wide variety of world-class brews with a mission to give back to local organizations and various charities. We believe a balance of history, innovation, and flavors can be found in every batch of 14th Star beer and hope the Sweden craft beer fans enjoy the diverse selection of brews we have provided. We look forward to continuing to work with Crafted Exports to provide 14th Star beer to our friends across the pond!

For all of January 2023, the following breweries will be showcased at Man in the Moon!

  • Long Trail Brewing Co
  • Otter Creek Brewing
  • The Shed Brewery
  • Burlington Beer Co
  • Foley Brothers Brewing
  • Zero Gravity Brewery
  • 14th Star Brewing Co
  • Whetstone Beer Co

Jake Collier, Sales Manager of Crafted Exports, comments: “We are once again starting off the year in celebration by partnering with Man in the Moon to showcase the best in beer from a new US state. This year we’ve chosen Vermont (the state where I grew up) and are beyond excited to share with the fans in Sweden some of the best beer the state has to offer!”

Commenting on the partnership, Daniel Rhawi, Owner of Man in the Moon, said: “We are thrilled to organize the eighth consecutive American Beer Fest at Man in the Moon. After doing California, Hawaii, Ohio, New York, Florida, Illinois and Massachusetts it’s time for the fantastic beer state of Vermont in January 2023. We would like to send huge thanks to Crafted Export for great partnership and also to all participant breweries. We really look forward to serving some of the best beers Vermont offers to the Swedish beer crowd.”

Wayfinding a New Path While Honoring Our Heritage

“In closing out our 10-Year Anniversary Celebration it is amazing to see how far we have come from renting a small garage on Lower Newton Street in St. Albans, building a brewhouse from old maple sugaring equipment, and throwing ourselves headlong into the business of craft brewing.

To say we are proud of what our team and community have accomplished in the last 10 years would be an understatement.”

– Steve Gagner and Matt Kehaya, 14th Star Founders
