Hi and a favour

[maebhin]

Hi all

I'm Maebh. I have a short questionnaire on craft beer consumers to do as part of a course I'm doing on entrepreneurship, I was wondering if I could post the questions here and get a few responses.Is this the best place to post it ?

[irish_goat]

Fire away. 

[maebhin]

Thanks .

1. Where do you go to buy craft beer?
2. Are you brand loyal ?
3. Does a strong brand help to sell the beer to you or is it all about taste ?
4. How many brands have you tried ?
5. Is buying locally produced beer important to you ?
6. Are you more likely to go for a bottle conditioned beer ?
7. How much is fair value for a 500ml bottle of 'decent' craft beer ?
8. Do you look for unusual flavours in craft beers ?
9. Would you think less of a brand if you saw it in a discount supermarket ?
10. Would you be suspicious to see a premium brand suddenly at a low price ?
10. Have you experienced 'brand fatigue' with all the new beers coming to market ?

Hi Maebh
Nobody will answer your questionnaire in that format on a public forum.

Here's what happened to the last on that came in like that
http://www.nationalhomebrewclub.ie/forum/index.php/topic,9139.msg113644.html#msg113644

Create and external Survey using something like https://www.surveymonkey.com/ and post us back the link.
You will get a lot more respondents as its anonymous and have a good read of their tips in its construction https://www.surveymonkey.com/mp/survey-guidelines/?ut_source=header.

Here is an example of the last well constructed survey that was requested recently
http://www.nationalhomebrewclub.ie/forum/index.php/topic,15078.msg142283.html#msg142283


Next you are going to tell us "I can't do all that its to be in for Friday"

[maebhin]

ok, thanks for the advice.

Given up Coke & Hookers for lent, LE? Sorry, don't know why I capitalised the C and H. Makes it look more like a brand name.

Thanks for finding that first link, CH. Well worth a re-read from time to time!

Most of us will take the time to fill out a survey monkey survey, if you draw one up.

1. Where do you go to buy craft beer? McHugh's Kilbarrack Rd
2. Are you brand loyal ? No.
3. Does a strong brand help to sell the beer to you or is it all about taste ? Branding is important. If an amazing beer came in Tesco Value stripes I wouldn't touch it
4. How many brands have you tried ? Heaps
5. Is buying locally produced beer important to you ? Yes
6. Are you more likely to go for a bottle conditioned beer ? Yes because the types of beer I'm interested in buying are more likely to be bottle conditioned. But I don't think there's anything specifically better about bottle conditioning
7. How much is fair value for a 500ml bottle of 'decent' craft beer ? €2.50
8. Do you look for unusual flavours in craft beers ? Definitely. I like sours

Check out Tesco's revisionist range. Very basic branding but awesome beers.

[beerfly]

well the lager does not have a stripe 

[Simon_]

That branding looks fine
If they looked like this would you bring them to bbq?

[LordEoin]

the "440ml" and "2% volume" put me off more than the stripe
