From Southern Tier:
Southern Tier Brewing announces the expansion of their distribution network with the addition of Texas, beginning with Austin, Houston and San Antonio. Distribution to Texas has been a long-awaited goal for the growing New York Brewery.
Craft beer drinkers in Texas will have access to a vast catalog of beers, including new releases in Southern Tier’s smash-hit 2X Series, along with new seasonal recipes and everyday offerings. Additions to the 2X Series will include 2XRye, a flavorful double Rye IPA, 2XSteam, a 2X Series interpretation of a California Common, and 2XNitro, a nitrogen-based double milk stout.
Also added to the brewery’s roster of beers such as Phin & Matt’s, 2XIPA, and UnEarthly Imperial IPA are two new bottle-conditioned offerings. Available seasonally in 22oz bottles, look for Compass. Bottle-conditioned with Champagne yeast and brewed with rosehips, this sparkling beer is a refreshing and unique addition to the brewery’s well-rounded catalog. Live, a bottle-conditioned Pale Ale, is enthusiastically released in 12oz bottles and will be available year-round. With packaging based on concert ticket stubs, Live is a beer that is ready to rock.
“We have looked forward to distributing in Texas for years,” said brewery president Phin Demink. “We have made a lot of upgrades and improvements to the brewery, and we’re proud to finally be able to reach out to beer drinkers in the Lone Star state.”
Upgrades include completion of a 110 barrel Steinecker brew house, as well as doubling cellar capacity to over 7000 barrels. Quality control and product consistency have remained paramount to every decision made since the brewery opened the doors of their modest facility in 2003. With 60,000 barrels of beer out the door in 2012, and the addition of exciting new markets, Southern Tier Brewing looks to 2013 with optimism.
