From City Paper:
Of the many beers the brewpub-turned-production brewery makes (about 26 total for 2013, more expected in 2014), Sweet Baby Jesus is the undisputed No. 1 seller at present. Sales increased for the dark, rich beer even over the summer, Benfield says.
He considers Maryland exceptional for brewing because “it’s a small state but a very densely populated state” that allows for quick feedback. As the company faces the uproar to expand to new markets, they’ve stayed the course for “slow, organic growth.” Sweet Baby Jesus “actually forced us to pull out of territories that we were in,” he says. “The Northern Virginia market and the Philadelphia market, we had to stop shipping beer there so that we could try to keep up with just some of Maryland.”
