Fireman’s Brew, a Los Angeles-based craft beer company founded by two firefighters, announced that it has released a new private offering of stock, available through FlashFunders, an innovative no-fee, online equity funding platform that connects early-stage companies with accredited investors across the globe.
In accordance with the JOBS ACT and exempt from registration under Rule 506(C), the company is offering up to 4,803,843 shares ($1.249/share) of Flash Seed Preferred stock, with a minimum offering of $3,000,000 and a maximum offering of $6,000,000. The deadline for accredited investors to invest is January 14, 2015. The company plans to use capital raised to accelerate the national expansion of the brand through increased sales and marketing exposure in current and new markets.

In addition, the company is committed to giving back to the firefighter community upon which it was founded by donating a portion of company proceeds to the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation — the nation’s leading non-profit organization dedicated to honoring fallen firefighters and providing assistance to their surviving families.
