AleSmith Expands Texas Distribution

San Diego, California (April 26, 2016) — Building off last year’s successful launch of its critically acclaimed beers in Texas, Southern California-based AleSmith Brewing Company is building on its fruitful partnership with Andrews Distributing to expand its reach throughout The Lone Star State. Effective immediately, AleSmith’s beers will begin trickling into South Texas, starting with areas surrounding Corpus Christi. When added to AleSmith’s existing distribution footprint in and  around the Dallas/Fort Worth area, this represents a significant geographical increase in the country’s largest continental state.

“The craft-beer scene, & demand for the variety of West Coast and European-style beers presented by our portfolio, is quickly growing all throughout Texas,” says AleSmith Director of National Sales James Valles. “It has long been our dream to get our beers into the hands of fans of quality ales and lagers across the country, starting with areas where the excitement is highest. Since expanding our production capabilities in 2015 with construction of a large, state-of-the-art brewery that far surpasses the capabilities and capacity of our original facility, we are in a prime position to realize that aspiration, and Texas was at the top of our list when it came time to increase distribution beyond our home region.”

“Our partnership with AleSmith in the Dallas-Fort Worth area has been met with great excitement from DFW beer lovers,” says Andrews Distributing Corpus Christi Vice President & General Manager Sean Murphy. “It has been a pleasure to work with the entire AleSmith team, and we look forward to expanding our partnership and sharing their great beer here in Corpus Christi. Their award-winning portfolio of artisanal craft beers is what consumers are craving and we are excited to help fill that need in this market.”

Beer-fans can look forward to the arrival of core six-pack offerings such as AleSmith IPA, AleSmith Nut Brown English-style Ale and AleSmith Lil’ Devil Belgian-style Pale Ale. Numerous other year-round, specialty and seasonal beers will also make their way to Texas on a regular basis, beginning with spring-summer release AleSmith Double IPA, the quartet of high-gravity beers comprising the 2016 Vintage Series and variations of the world-renowned coffee-infused imperial stout, AleSmith Speedway Stout.
