WHATMSBINVESTORS ARESAYINGABOUTTHEOPPORUNITY

“After drilling into the concept and plan with Tim and his team and helping in drafting the deal structure I decided to invest and even got my family to invest too. This is an outstanding team with substantial relevant operating experience and a differentiated plan for entering the craft beer/cider space. The craft beer/cider market continues to grow rapidly with plenty of opportunity remaining for new brands like MSB.”

Alan, Investment Professional, NYC Private Equity Firm

From a management team with deep, relevant experience to a comprehensive marketing and business plan, and a product that is already in high demand, this is as close to can't miss as you can get. I can't wait to see this come on-line and let the numbers support what I'm confident will be the successful byproduct of a well-vetted strategy.”

Dan, CFO of Global Bulk Raw Materials Trading and Logistics

MSBTEAM’SLONGHISTORYINCRAFTMine Shaft Brewing's passionate team has worked in the beer category, specifically the craft space, since the 70's.Leveraging our experience in the super premium, premium, premium light, sub-premium, malt liquor and flavored maltbeverage categories, our brew crew has been involved in the development and introduction of both specialty andseasonal brews, including brewing, packaging, marketing and sales. To this day our team continues to brew worldclass, award- winning beers. Below are some of the craft brands and beer brands with which our group has beeninvolved.

THEHUGEMARKETOPPORTUNITY

“The whole (U.S.) cider category is only 0.2% of the beer market and in England and Ireland, it’s 15 to 20%. There is so much upward traction

for the category, it’s almost mind numbing.”

$1B+ Rapid craft facility expansion is needed By 2020

Craft beer jumps 22% from $14.4B in 2013 to $19.6B+ in 2014

CRAFTBEERGROWINGFASTOVERVIEW

Craft volume sales in key U.S. retail channels grew 18.8 percent in 2015 while dollar sales grew 23.4 percent, to more than $2.9 billion.

Craft also had impressive gains in convenience stores, where year-to-date volume sales grew 26 percent and dollar sales grew 30 percent.

“It’s the most exciting beverage category in the market,”Jeffrey House, founder of the California Cider Co.

More Consumers Turning To Hard Cider

The hard cider market continues to grow at a greater rate than all other alcoholic beverages. According to Nielsen, which tracks off-premise (retail, not restaurant) sales of alcoholic beverages.

Cider sells for an average of $35 percase, marking an impressive jump from the $29 per case paid for imported beers and $33 per case for craft beer.

Boston Beer's Angry Orchard Cider, introduced in 2011, has achieved an impressive +51% share of the Cider market.

“Cider drinkers are a lot like craft beer fans; but we’ve found that cider appeals to both men and women equally—whereas beer typically skews 80% male—and most drinkers are under 40.” David Sipes, Angry Orchard’s Cider Maker

MSBWILLBEANATTRACTIVEACQUISITIONFORDuvelMoortgat/Constellation/ABI

You Know ABI Is Serious About Buying Craft Brewers Globally When . . .

The world's largest brewer devoted a full paragraph to its effects in US and internationally in its end of year earnings

release this morn. "The development of the craft category in the US, and increasingly around the world, is a prime example of how new vigor and energy can be brought to the consumer's

experience with beer." While ABI "building a position in the craft space with acquisitions" in US for yr, in 2015, "we also expanded our global craft portfolio with acquisitions in other countries such as the UK, Mexico, Canada, Colombia and

Brazil."

Constellation Looks to "Become the High-End Leader" thru Acquisitions & Innovations; More Craft

Constellation looks "to become more than just an import company" and has "raised our internal bar of success…to become the high-end leader," said Constellation Brands

chief commercial officer Bruce Jacobson at its annual mtgearlier this week. "Idea is not to sit around and wait" but

rather to ensure "even while we've got some of the fastest growing major brands in the industry, that we have those

brands backed up by many ideas that will also be the growth drivers of the future," ceo Rob Sands added. Co's already

off to a billion $$ start with its acquisition of Ballast, of course. And Bruce hinted several times that there could be

"further acquisitions in the craft space.”

Duvel Moortgat ceo Michel Moortgat "has a vision for creating a global craft brewing empire," wrote Kansas City Business Journal, which interviewed him recently.

"The whole craft brewing industry is moving fast," Michel said. "This company is evolving well. We're ambitious. A bit

like the Kansas City Royals, we want to be world champions." The co has 6 brands in Europe and 3 in US,

sez Biz Jnl (Boulevard, Ommegang and Firestone Walker). About 40% of its total global biz in US, CBN understands,

clearly growing at faster pace than its largely European biz.

"The innovation of craft beer is higher in America," added Michel. So that even if "inspiration" comes from Europe, like

with farmhouse brew Tank 7, "packaging and identity is clearly American which inspires people in Europe. The

Midwest inspires the boundless possibilities of America, and that makes people drink the beer. I think people need a little bit of dreaming in their life." Interesting quotes from Michel.

He also spoke about US craft beer trends spreading to Europe. "IPA is really big here, but it's only starting to get big in Europe. So it still has development to go there. But when we see a new trend here in the U.S., like sour beers, wild

yeast beers or barrel-aged beers, then we can likely predict that will be the next trend in Europe. The world has become

a village."

Excerpts From Beer Marketer's Insights

CHALLENGETHESTATUSQUO

“If you’re not a Top 50 craft brand, you’re less than a $10MM business. The real fight in this industry is on-shelf. You need to get as big as possible now, but you need to do it prudently.”

Craig Farlie, Farlie, Turner & Co.

DISTRIBUTORSWANTMSBNOW

Scott Stiltz, Craft Brand Manger of M & M Distribution, UT/ Coors Brands:

“If MSB was producing now M & M would want you in UT, WY, NM. We do not see anything like MSB from other new craft players let alone existing craft players.”

Dane Carlson, President of Carlson Distribution, UT/Miller, Sam Adams:

“MSB can take 35 to 45% of the local market in year one with Carlson. MSB Ales alone could do 14,000 BBLS the first year.”

-Remember the 14K BBLS is just Ales and does not even count Beer & Cider sales-

John Sadowsky, CEO of Atlas Distribution, MA/Miller, Sam Adams

“Love everything about MSB: team, branding, packaging, lines.”

A majority if not all initial capacity should be accounted for by the time MSB opens

The restaurant offers an ideal R&D and Marketing asset: influential craft drinkers interested in new varieties are already engaged in a memorable travel experience.

Social Media Social media knowhow- Our site is responsive and sizes for mobile users- Hardly any competitors have this capability

Our OperationPermits higher yields using cider from day one, while a pasteurizer delivers better beer and cider in longer shelf-life scenarios. Equipment automation allows us to hedge and adapt production to craft and cider demand for better ROI.

Athlete Ambassadors Athlete ambassadors in the NHL, MLB, PGA, NFL, MLS, NWSL, IRONMAN and Olympic Sports that are attractive to distributors and retailers- Competing craft brewers do not have any such arrangements.

Branding, Packaging & MessagingBranding, packaging and messaging, many of the items that differentiate MSB and are also reasons distributors want MSB.

MSBBRANDING

While CRAFT sells product, the BRAND creates an acquisition target.

We are building a brand, not just a craft.

“An eye-catching label that makes a brand instantly  recognizable from 10 to 20 feet away is a plus, while one  with too many tiny details might appear as nothing more than a colorful blob.”

Curtis Mann, Craft BuyerRaley’s Bel Air Nob Hill Foods NorCal

“Beyond the quality of the liquid inside the bottle, strong packaging and labeling, the eye-catching face of a brand, is becoming paramount as a means of standing out on shelves tasked with propping up more and more craft SKUs than ever before. If you’re not seen, you don’t exist.”

Ian McLean, Founder and Creative Director McLean Design BevNET FBU (Food and Beverage University)

“I have never seen a startup in the craft space that has such an understanding of branding and brand

architecture. Most small and even many of the large brewers don’t understand brand architecture.

The approach is not craft, it is to be a brand to get the price positioning right.”

-Chairman of a Top 25 Craft Brewery

RISKS&CHALLENGESDistributor Relationships can be complex: Experienced team eliminates learning curve for pricing, sales, marketing and manufacturing.

Lead times on equipment: Brewmaster has personally installed similar systems.

Shelf Capacity: Team must capture not just sales but own substantial shelf space: Equipment is built to a 60K bbl. capacity and enables large production.

Risks Related to Investments in Early Stage Companies. Investments in growth stage companies such as the Company involve a high degree of business and financial risk and can result in substantial losses. Such companies may face intense competition, including competition from companies with greater financial resources, more extensive development, manufacturing and marketing capabilities and a larger number of qualified managerial and technical personnel.

Risks Related to Laws Our business is regulated by a number of federal, state and local laws and regulations. The interpretation of such laws by courts and regulatory bodies is not always predictable. In addition, these laws and regulations are subject to amendment or change over time. The Company will have limited ability impacting the interpretation, enforcement or creation of such laws and regulations. Changes in such laws or in the way such laws are enforced or interpreted could materially impact our business.

“Valuation, and actually transacting, in this business is much more complex than just multiplying EBITDA by 12 or 13 or whatever. Simply put, something is worth what someone is willing to pay based on how much current and future value they see in it”.
