What is an NFT?
A non-fungible token is a digital collectible (unit of data) stored on a digital ledger, called a blockchain, that certifies a digital asset to be unique and therefore not interchangeable. NFTs can be used to represent items such as photos, videos, audio, and other types of digital files.
Why do people buy NFTs?
When someone buys an NFT they gain the rights to the unique token, but only on the blockchain. … People are motivated to buy NFTs because it provides a unique connection to the creator that does not exist with any other art form.
Why is Sudwerk Creating NFTs?
Building on over 30 years years of family legacy and brewing tradition in Davis, California, we (Sudwerk Brewing Co.) specialize in producing artisanal craft lagers and innovative new styles. Sudwerk is a slang German word for “community brewery” which drives our core ethos; to continuously strengthen and give back to our community.
Driven by our passion to build authentic and lasting connections with our community (in-person and the metaverse), Sudwerk is believed to be the first brewing company to create and auction Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs). Given our ethos, Sudwerk views NFTs as a unique way to connect with our community via offering original artwork and authentic experiences that build a stronger bond between us; while also reinforcing our passion for brewing. Prost!
What is Sudwerk’s First NFT Ever?
We tried not to take our first NFT release too seriously, poking fun at the rapid pace of change across the economy from craft brewing to the greater metaverse. We’ve all had “analysis paralysis” in the beer aisle with the countless, never-ending new styles to choose from. The beer style brewed is an amalgamation of the top “beer” trends of recent years – fruited, hazy, seltzer and low cal. For the beer’s name, we took liberty creating our own acronym of an NFT (“Next F’ing Trend”) to represent the infinite “fear of missing out;” with the label artwork featuring several of our most popular “one-off” limited labels that have been released recently.
Fun aside, we do understand there’s potential to be unlocked through NFTs and the future building stronger community connections via the metaverse. But for now, you still can’t drink beer through the internet (yet)!
