In today's podcast we hear from Jason Sleeman from United Community Bank. Jason has 20 years' experience in banking, and the last 6 years running the craft beverage vertical for United Community Bank.

The hot topic on everyone's mind is the second round of PPP funding. 

• What do breweries need to know right now to take advantage of this relief package?  
• How does the NAICS code factor in to the PPP?  In other words, will production breweries who also operate taprooms qualify for a larger loan?  3.5x vs 2.5x of monthly payroll, for example.  
• What about new breweries that just opened up as the pandemic was starting...will they qualify for relief?  

You've got questions, Jason has answers.

Key Topics:

• PPP Round 2...Q&A with the lender
• How to raise funds for a start-up brewery
• Expansion financing overview...how to fund the new canning line
