Coppertail has partnered with Florida beverage distributor Cone Distributing, Inc., to provide Coppertail's 'Core Four' signature beers to restaurants, bars, tap rooms and stores in their distribution area. The counties include Alachua (Gainesville), Leon (Tallahassee), and Marion (Ocala). Coppertail's four core beers are Unholy, (American Trippel), Night Swim, (Robust Porter), Free Dive (American IPA) and Independent Pilsner (Traditional German Pilsner). Seasonal beers will also be available.
Coppertail beer is currently available in Jacksonville, Orlando, Sarasota, Ft. Myers, Miami, and Tampa, where it is brewed in a newly expanded facility at the edge of Ybor City. Reaching the new market is a dream of Coppertail's President, Kent Bailey.
"We chose to partner up with Team Cone because we love their values, their company culture and their ability to get things done," said Kent. "The feeling I get walking through the warehouse at Cone is the same feeling I get walking around our brewery: it's like a big family. We feel confident putting the future of our brand in Team Cone's hands. We love the unspoiled, old-Florida feeling in much of the country up there, and it's exciting to be able to sell beer in our state Capital. We're also looking forward to having a good excuse to drive up for some football games."
Launch events to introduce Coppertail beer to consumers are planned the week of August 21st at restaurants and tap rooms. Check out the Coppertail Brewing Co. Facebook page for more details.
As a bonus I’ve added in the new packaging for Coppertail Whoops! Florida Weisse Series with cranberry and hibiscus (3.5%-AbV).
Thanks for posting our news! If you are in the Tampa Bay area, come to our 3rd birthday party celebration on Saturday, August 26 from 1pm to 5pm at Coppertail. It's a celebration of Florida Weisse with over 30 taps, food, three bands and a lot of fun. See you there!
