Join e2e Wyoming at the Best Western Sheridan Center at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, November 10th to hear Tim Barnes talk about launching The Black Tooth Brewing Company. Tim was raised in Sheridan and attended Sheridan High School before graduating from MSU with a degree in Political Science. After founding Big Horn Leasing and Sheridan Computer in the early 2000’s, Tim launched The Black Tooth Brewing Company in November of 2010. As it approaches its 5th anniversary, Black Tooth has continued to grow and is now the largest brewing facility in Wyoming.
Prior to the expansion this summer, Black Tooth was only capable of producing about 35,000 cases of beer each year. Now that the brewery has grown and has a larger brewing system, Black Tooth will be able to produce over 700,000 cases each year with plans to distribute statewide and to the seven surrounding states. In addition, Black Tooth’s sales have increased by 40% year-to-date through the first half of 2015. This has all been accomplished while continuing to produce a quality product. Black Tooth Brewing Company has won 44 Medals in National and International Competition, including two World Beer Cup Awards, and twice named among Top 5 U.S. Breweries at the U.S. Open Beer Championships.
Tim is active in the Sheridan community and the state as the Founder and President of the Wyoming Craft Brewers Guild, Board Member of the Wyoming Liquor Dealers Association, and Board Member of the Sheridan County Chamber of Commerce. Tim and his wife, Lynette, have one daughter and two dogs and enjoy calling Sheridan their home.
Here are some quotes from John Dick, the director of e2e for the Sheridan area:
“e2e Wyoming is all about getting people together who are interested in entrepreneurship so they can talk about issues around starting and growing a business. We strive to bring in a variety of speakers from different industries and businesses to share their stories. Ultimately, I hope everyone who attends an e2e event meets someone new and takes something away from the presentation that they can apply to their own business or future venture.”
“I’m really excited to have Tim speak because Black Tooth is a great entrepreneurial story that started right here in Sheridan. Even though a lot of people are familiar with their products, this is an opportunity to have a better understanding of how they launched and grew the business.”
