Does anyone know where to purchase or even if it has been released in the states? Coors, purchased this brewery and released a statement that it will be distributing in the states. This was in 2015. Love several of their labels.. Thanks for any info...
I couldn't find any distro info on their website. I recommend contacting them directly. http://franciscanwellbrewery.com/en/contact-us
Point of distinction: Molson Coors bought them - I think the plan all along was for them to serve Canadian markets more than the US. Their beers have taken a nose dive since the buyout, anyway. Shandon got brewed at Sharp's for a while, and was awful. They've got an OK red. Chieftain is a very 2009-style IPA. Their latest effort was Archway, a macro-style lager intended to go toe to toe with the big boys. That should tell you something about where their heads are at. The brewpub is still OK, I hear, and they host a fest at Easter. Generally, though, craft drinkers in Ireland don't pay them any mind anymore.
