Talk surfaced over the weekend that Bear Republic (Healdsburg, CA) will be pulling out some of their markets. This was posted to BeerAdvocate:
As of Jan 1 BR is pulling out of midwest markets. They plan to focus on 15-16 “key” markets until they can up their capacity. So if you live in KS, MO and yes even Texas, start stocking up now while you still can.
Here on Monday morning, it doesn’t seem to be 100% accurate.
Missouri – Yes, confirmed by Evan Benn, STL Today
Texas: Noble Union/Duff Rep that doesn’t want to be named said “not that he has been told.”
Kansas: TBD
Nothing has been officially mentioned by the brewery. Sit tight and let them clear the air…
