Atwater Records 25% Increase in 2015

imageFrom Atwater:

Atwater Brewery hit another record sales year in 2015 posting a 25% increase nationwide lead by a 40% increase in Michigan and expansion into Canada.

"The beer business is extremely competitive but our brands have remained strong, especially our Dirty Blonde and Vanilla Java Porter that continue to be market leaders," Rieth said. "With 26 distinct flavors to offer, two award winning brewpubs and a third one in the works, Atwater is able to appeal to the whole spectrum of beer drinkers at our own locations as well as through our extensive Michigan and national distribution network."

“The good times are continuing for microbreweries in Michigan,” says Rieth, “and as the state’s third biggest brewer we’ve got a lot at stake.  We’re particularly excited about the new growth in our home market and we’re continuing to compete aggressively for wider distribution, new flavors, and new locations elsewhere. We’ve always said we want to ‘bring Detroit everywhere’ and in 2016 we’ll be going after new customers wherever we can find them to enjoy our beers and help us spread the word.”

Look for distribution expansion into  Georgia, New Jersey and New York City in 2016 and the potential for a tap roon in downtown Detroit. 
Atwater is also planning to open another tap room in Grand Rapids in 2016.
