Denver Beer Co. Signs Distribution Partnership With Beverage Distributors Company

September 21, 2015

Beverage Distributors Company to Distribute Denver Beer Co. Cans and Bottles Throughout State of Colorado by Early 2016

 

Denver, Colo. (September 18, 2015) – Denver Beer Co. today announced that it has signed a partnership agreement with Beverage Distributors Company (BDC) to distribute cans, bottles and kegs to on and off premises retailers throughout the state of Colorado.  This partnership will enable Denver Beer Co. to reach retailers from Boulder to Monument for the remainder of 2015 and service liquor stores throughout the entire state of Colorado by early 2016.

 

BDC is one of the top players in the Colorado distribution market with a beer portfolio that includes notable Colorado craft breweries including O’Dell Brewing Company, Avery Brewing Company, Ska Brewing, and Great Divide Brewing Co. By partnering with this well established distribution company, Denver Beer Co. will expand sales from its current 250 retail accounts, to fully servicing accounts statewide in 2016.  Denver Beer Co. currently brews at a rate of 7000 barrels per year and is expecting to double production by the end of 2016 to meet increased demand.

 

“From a business standpoint, BDC was the best choice among the distributor options in Colorado for our brand,” stated Denver Beer Co. co-founder Charlie Berger.  “They service the entire state of Colorado which will allow us to reach our full potential of growth within Colorado and ensure beer is delivered fresh.  We are excited to be able to get our beer to the customers outside of the metro area that have been asking for us to deliver to their region. Soon beer lovers can buy a six pack of Graham Cracker Porter after a hike in Nederland and enjoy a cold draft Incredible Pedal IPA r poured in Crested Butte, or pop a Sun Drenched at a music festival in Telluride.”

 

“We are very excited that Denver Beer Co. has chosen BDC as its exclusive wholesaler in Colorado,” said Jeremy Tostrup, Vice President of BDC. “Denver Beer Co.’s portfolio of fun and flavorful beers is a great addition to our wholesale offerings and helps us in our goal to be the craft beer distributor of choice in Colorado.”

 

Denver Beer Co. co-founder Patrick Crawford continued, “We are impressed by BDC’s commitment to quality service toward to retail accounts, and focus on quality beer in their portfolio.  They are a craft-centric distributor, as evidenced by some of the other amazing Colorado craft beers in their portfolio. Culturally they are a great fit too; BDC really understands our brand, our culture, and our belief that ‘life is fun’.”

 

Denver Beer Co.’s Canworks production brewery, which opened in August, 2014 at 4455 Jason Street in Denver with an initial brewing capacity of 5,000 bbls per year, currently has a brewing capacity of 8,000 barrels per year.  The production brewery will expand by early November 2015 with four new 120 barrel fermenters and an additional 25,000 square feet of production and warehouse space to increase brewing capacity to over 18,000 barrels per year.  Denver Beer Co. plans to hire additional brewing staff and packaging staff in the coming months to keep up with increased demand.

 

Canworks utilizes existing Denver Beer Co. recipes and produces six-pack cans of Graham Cracker Porter, Incredible Pedal IPA, Sun Drenched Exploratory Ale, rotating seasonal six-packs, the Explorer Pack seasonal mixed pack, plus 22 oz. bombers of specialty batches.  Recipes originated at The Denver Beer Co. taproom, located at 1695 Platte Street, which was founded in 2011 and is open seven days per week.  For more information, visit www.denverbeerco.com.
