How to Support Final Gravity
Order the zine!
The first way you can support us—and yeah, this is kind of obvious—is by ordering one or more issues of the zine!
2. Subscribe!
Whether you’re an individual, library, taproom, or bar, you can subscribe to receive every issue of Final Gravity as it comes out. We currently offer one-year subscriptions, and you can choose to begin your subscription with our most recent or upcoming issue. You can even choose to have the covers laminated—we know how easy it is to spill beer!
3. Patreon!
Possibly the best way you can support us is through our Patreon. Our Patreon has multiple tiers to fit different budgets, and they all come with… *drumroll* ...PERKS! You can get beer-related cards and prints, stickers, exclusive Patreon content (that we actually post, we promise), and more. And they all come with a subscription to Final Gravity!
BIG shout-out to our Sponsor level Patreon supporters—Shan Escobar and Jackie Holsten, and our Pro Sponsors Fifth Street Brewpub, Gravel Road Brewing, The Beer Scholar, Cocoa Supply, The Beer Blog Villain, Cincinnati State Brewing Program, and Brewing Is Ag! You can get mentioned here, in the zine, and on the Bean to Barstool podcast when you sign on as a Sponsor, our highest level of support.
4. Advertise!
We have a range of simple, flexible, and affordable options for advertising in Final Gravity (and our publisher, Bean to Barstool). While our audience is very small for now, it is a passionate and engaged group of beer lovers, brewers, and beer writers who are invested in the success of craft beer.
5. Spread the Word!
We know this sounds perfunctory, but we mean it: you can support us by letting people know about Final Gravity! The idea of a staple-bound beer periodical is pretty niche, and we need to get the word out. Share it on social media, ask your local zine shop, bookstore, or brewery taproom to carry it, tell a friend…It all helps.
6. Become a Stockist!
If you own one of those establishments we just mentioned, we’d love to talk with you about stocking Final Gravity! We can work on either consignment or wholesale, and we have very low minimums, so get in touch. You’ll be supporting independent publishing, freelance writers and artists. Woohoo!
