From BrewDog & Anchor Brewing:
San Francisco, CA (June 30, 2015) – Today, Anchor Brewing Company and
BrewDog PLC announce future plans for BrewDog in the U.S. As BrewDog
commences plans to build a brewery in Ohio, Anchor will continue to import and sell
BrewDog to its wholesaler partners with an eventual distribution management
transition to BrewDog’s forthcoming operations.
“Working with BrewDog since 2010 has been a tremendous experience,” stated Keith
Greggor, CEO and Co-Owner of Anchor Brewing and Director of BrewDog PLC.,
“Throughout it has always been envisaged that the optimal arrangement was for
BrewDog to be brewed in the U.S. Also, that in managing its own brewery, it would be
best to manage distribution, too.”
“Anchor has helped us appreciate the complexity of the U.S. beer market. We are
now set to transition from being an import to a domestically produced beer,” stated
James Watt, Co-Founder and Captain of BrewDog PLC. “Our U.S .TV show
‘BrewDogs’ has generated a great deal of interest in our beers. In inheriting a national
distribution footprint from Anchor, we will be in a unique position to serve those fans
easily and quickly with our new Ohio brewing facility.”
Until BrewDog completes its brewery, likely late 2016, Anchor will continue to serve
as their importer. As the brewery production schedule is formalized, transition
arrangements will be agreed on a wholesaler by wholesaler basis.
