SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 11, 2013 /mbb/ -- Scott Fore, President of 2X4 Brewing & Imports LLC, is pleased to announce the recent signing of the distribution agreement with Young's Market Company of California as the exclusive distributor of the craft beers and ciders imported by 2X4 Brewing & Imports LLC from Canada.
The products from Howe Sound Brewing Company will be the first of 2X4 Brewing & Imports portfolio to be distributed by Young's Market Company in California. Products from Parallel 49 Brewing Company of Vancouver, BC and others as a part of the Canada's Select Brews™ established by 2X4 will soon follow.
The Canada's Select Brews™ family of craft beers, ales and ciders will be offered to retailers and restaurateurs as a package of high quality and unique products from Canada that will add depth and quality to the craft beer category. These beers are not only award winning they are also brewed in Canadian locales that are natural and pristine. Their underlying stories and high quality provide excellent market appeal in the USA import craft beer market.
Howe Sound Brewing Company is located in Squamish, BC, at the head of Howe Sound, a 40- mile mountain lined fiord north of Vancouver. The internationally renowned ski resort, Whistler is a further 35 miles up the Sea to Sky highway. The entire area is known as The Outdoor Recreational Capital of Canada, featuring rock climbing, mountain biking, hiking, boating, skiing and much more. In addition, Howe Sound bottles its products in a unique and re-sealable "Pot Stopper" bottle in 1-liter size. This unique bottle offers an attractive trend setting package and value in providing the consumer 25-35% more beer in comparison to the 750ml and 650ml format that most USA Craft Specialty beers are sold in for single unit take away.
According to Fore, "The Howe Sound products covered by the agreement include the "King Heffy" a rich full bodied 3 Time Gold Medal winning Imperial Hefeweizen and a powerhouse experimental ale, "Megadestroyer" an Imperial Licorice Stout that is a beer geeks dream". Howe Sound products will be available in limited release on California retail shelves in November 2013.
