About this project

For the Love of Beer is looking to raise funds for post-production and distribution costs. We started filming this feature in December of 2009 and just ended in February of 2011, allowing us to document an intimate portrayal of our characters as they grow and develop within the industry and their personal lives. We love beer, but we love the people behind it even more. We're over halfway through the rough cut, and we've made it here through small investors, fund raising parties, and our personal checking accounts. This is a very low budget documentary, but in no way is that reflected in the production value. This additional funding will allow us to finish the editing process, allowing for soundtrack/scoring, graphics, color correction, and other finishing touches that our team isn't capable of doing in house. This funding will also get us started with submitting the documentary into film festivals, scheduling and promoting solo releases, and dvd printing and distribution process.

We'd also like to take a moment to thank the lovely people at NW Documentary and Rex!, along with all of our beautiful and wonderfully generous subjects, for helping us get to this point. We can't wait to finish this project and share the passion of the women in the NW beer industry, and we hope you agree.

Cheers, Alison info@fortheloveofbeer.net

Alison Grayson graduated with a BS in film and video production from Drexel University in Philadelphia PA before moving to Portland OR. Specializing in camera operation and utility, she's worked with companies such as NBC, Food Network, CBS Radio, LG Electronics, The Portland Trail Blazers, Race MD, and Purple Stride.

Shortly after moving to Portland OR, Alison fell in love with the microbrew community. She had never seen such a warm, welcoming group of people, but she began to notice a disconnect between the amount of women who enjoyed beer and the amount working within the industry. Alison's goal as a documentarian is to celebrate people who are doing whatever makes them happy, and these women fit perfectly. She decided to create create For the Love of Beer to celebrate the women in the Pacific NW's beer industry and to inspire more women (and men!) to become involved. Because it's not for feminism or equality...It's For The Love of Beer.
