Sixpoint distributing to Portland

"didn't hold traction"

Sir, popping into PDX briefly then I must head to Belgium for a beer project there. By no means did this idea "not hold traction" but there is not enough bandwidth at this time and my availability is severely limited.

Yes, let's organize this. How about we put something on the books for late March/early April?

 

Sixpoint cans and beers that are canned are also legged and brewed in Memphis Tennessee. By blues city brewing co.
5151 E RAINES RD
MEMPHIS, TN 38118

 

And?

 

Wonder how the sixpoint stuff is selling here now that the dust has settled a bit? They've got the marketing down, packaging looks great.

 

The hoppy stuff is doing well. The Crisp and Sweet Action are a bit slower moving, but I suspect that will change when the weather warms and people start looking for lighter beers in cans to accompany their outdoor activities.

 

Saw they are going to be canning a gose called Jammer using Jacobsen salt. I'll be buying that. Any of the local brewers used Jacobsen in a gose yet? Seems like they would, since that seems to be the go-to salt in the culinary world.

 

Its pulling through nicely. We have a great wholesaler and the customers in the PDX area know good beer, so we get good play at many of the top accounts. We are honored to be in one of the best beer markets in the entire world - if not THE best.

Yup. Expect Crisp to really start ticking up in May, and last through August. The hoppy beers tend to do well year round.

Yeah man, its going to be great. Can't wait to release that one. cheers!

 

Thanks a lot. You do this forum a tremendous service with the first hand information.
