From Upstate Brewing:

Upstate Brewing

has reached an agreement with its fourth distributor that will soon make the Elmira company’s beers available from Cortland to Syracuse and through Utica.

Upstate owners Mark Neumann and Ken Mortensen signed the deal with Spirit & Sanzone Distributors, the brewery’s fourth distributor. Spirit & Sanzone covers a 16-county region in central New York.

Spirit & Sanzone will distribute Upstate’s two flagship beers to bars and restaurants for draft sale, and to retail outlets for can sales. Distribution will begin in September.

The flagship beers, which are available on tap and in 16 ounce cans, are Common Sense, a Kentucky common ale, and IPW, an India pale wheat ale. Upstate also produces seasonal beers. The upcoming Fall seasonal is a Pale Ale brewed with fresh New York state hops.

Neumann and Mortensen opened the craft brewery in July 2012 at 3028 Lake Road in Elmira. Upstate’s beers are distributed to more than 40 locations throughout the Southern Tier and Central New York by John G. Ryan Inc. of Pine City and Rocco J. Testani Inc. of Binghamton. The beers are distributed throughout the Hudson Valley and the New York City metro area by Oak Beverages of Blauvelt in Rockland County.
