About this project
I am starting a beer-mustard company called My Friend's Mustard. I love food, I love beer and I love condiments. Mustard is my absolute favorite. This mustard was born in Brooklyn and I want to raise it here. In keeping with all things Brooklyn, I have partnered with the local Sixpoint Craft Ales and will be making my mustards with their delicious ales.
Starting my mustard company will involve acquiring licenses, forming an LLC, purchasing commercial kitchen equipment, ordering larger amounts of mustard ingredients for production (including labels and jars), renting kitchen space, hiring a logo designer and web developer/designer, etc. All of these things, of course, require cash. I need your help! You will be supporting a one-woman, Brooklyn-based, beer-mustard operation which will spread whole-grain, Sixpoint beer-mustardy deliciousness to all of Brooklyn (and, hopefully, beyond).
Lovers of my mustard are waiting to see it in local stores and flea markets. Interested vendors are waiting to sell my product to hungry Brooklynites. Help me make the final push from kitchen to market.
Thank you in advance from your Brooklyn Mustard Maven,
Anna Wolf

My name is Anna Wolf and I am a Brooklyn beer and food nerd. I am starting a Brooklyn-based beer-mustard company. I have paired up with Sixpoint Craft Ales (fellow Brooklynites) and will be using their fine ales to create my signature whole grain spicy beer-mustard.
The idea for my company blossomed out of a period of frustrating unemployment. I had way more time than I was used to and I spent it playing in the kitchen. One day after deciding to grill some bratwurst I decided to try making my own mustard. I developed two great mustard recipes: Spicy Brown Ale Mustard and Jalapeno IPA Mustard. I had friends taste it and joked about starting a mustard company in all my unemployed glory. It stuck. People loved it. My friends insisted that all of their buddies had to try "my friend's mustard!"...and the name was born.
This is my first attempt at taking one of my kitchen creations to a commercial level and I'm looking forward to dressing sandwiches and sausages everywhere!
