...Good afternoon, everyone. Thanks so much for joining us today. It's a pleasure to introduce the last speaker of our conference this year, Jim Koch, who is the Co-Founder and Chairman of The Boston Beer Company. Jim, it's been both an exciting and challenging year for your company, which has driven growth and innovation in Beyond Beer, the blue ocean of alcoholic beverages while navigating the challenges of maturing hard seltzer category. Now not forgetting their roots, Boston Beer also continues to invest behind its core Sam Adams brand, which is holding its own in a difficult craft beer environment, while Dogfish Head is strengthening its foothold in the increasingly popular canned cocktail segment. With that, I'm very pleased to welcome Jim back to our event. Thank you, Jim. Thank you. You've already poured me... C. James Koch ...
