Mail your coaster to the brewery? | Cameron’s Coaster Campaign February 19th, 2008
Well, the new Cameron’s coaster campaign is under way. Most pubs that carry Cameron’s ales and lagers have been shipped a few sleeves of our new coasters.
The new Cameron’s coaster may seem like a typical coaster, but it is uniquely different. We decided to fashion our coasters like a postcard allowing people to connect with the brewery in a unique way.
The back of the new coaster looks like a traditional postcard with the ‘Send to’ already addressed to the brewery. The idea is to use the coaster at the pub, fill out your return address on the back and mail it to Cameron’s. In return, we will send you one of our flashy new bottle openers.
As coasters come in, we will add them to the ‘Great Wall of Coasters’ at the brewery. Those who have mailed back a coaster and then come to the brewery to find it, will earn themselves a discount on swag, a ticket for a Cameron’s event or something totally random, but cool.
We are striving to create a culture around a simple ol’ coaster. We will also send out brewery updates, first access to Cameron’s events and as a grand prize, we will email one person this summer to say, “We’re coming to your house with beer, food and music.”
Our coaster campaign officially kicked off February 1 st with coasters starting to arrive in pubs and restaurants the week of Feb 4th. As of this morning, the ‘Wall’ is already a considerable size.
For more information on what establishments carry Cameron’s, kindly email info@CameronsBrewing.com or call 905.849.8282 or visit our website.
Cheers and we’re keeping an eye out for your coaster…

What a great idea to promote interest in your brewery. I like to finally see local breweries doing something interesting that doesn’t cost them a lot of money. So often it seems the innovation runs out with many breweries around here. Well done.

Hey Bob,
Thanks for your comments.
Yeah, we’re pretty pumped about it…if 10,000 coasters come back we may be broke, but at least we will have a lot of new friends.
Thanks again and I will keep an eye out for a coaster with your name on it.
Cheers,
Mike

I need a new one of those openers…I lent mine for the OCB symposium only after being promised I’d get it back…but I didn’t and I really like your opener.

Hey Mike
Do any bars in the Byward Market, or anywhere in Ottawa have your postcard coasters? I’m looking at going out Monday evening.
