Wandering Bear and Scholle IPN Brew Success

Scholle IPN had the opportunity to walk with Wandering Bear Coffee from their kitchen in Queens, to full production, selling boxes of cold brew coffee across the United States. Want to learn what it was like to scale the craft from small startup to full, national production? Watch their story below:

Wandering Bear’s Story

Wandering Bear Coffee began in 2013, when Matt Bachmann and Ben Gordon showed up to a grad school classroom each carrying a mason jar of homemade cold brew coffee. Within months, they had rented a small kitchen in Queens, NY, working tirelessly (and over-caffeinated) to figure out how to scale their homebrew. More than five years later that passion remains, and Wandering Bear is on a mission to become a favorite part of your day, every day.
