    Didn’t really see a thread like this, but thought it might be helpful. Not looking for new breweries starting up, but more for existing breweries that will be distributing to a state they hadn’t previously distributed to. I’ll start.

    Wisconsin

    Looks like Jack’s Abby will be here in August. Their Oktoberfest for sure.

    Do you know if it will be state-wide or just certain cities/markets?

    Another reason for this FIB to drive up to WI for beer.

    Yeah -- most obvious, probably try an email to the brewery today.

    Checked FB and Twitter, but didn't see anything recent.

    Wisconsin started getting 450 North recently; for those people that like dropping $10 on a can of fruit juice.

    I've also started seeing Barn Town and Timber Ales, though I'm not sure if those are new distro or I just never noticed. What ever happened to Yuengling coming here?

    You can just hop in the boat that @FBarber will be towing in order to properly go across state lines!

    We have a small amount of beer going to WI, but we are not fully distributed there. Wisconsin has one of the highest German American populations in the country which makes it an epic Lager drinking state. The Oktoberfest in Lacrosse is enviable as well. Beyond this small shipment we are looking at expanding our offerings in the future.

    I think the latter statement means you need to rethink the former statement. :wink:

    (Said the German-American from just south of the curtain. :grin:)

    St. Croix Falls but guessing it would be in Hudson, Eau Claire and surrounding areas as well.

    I’ve only seen a couple Jack’s Abby beers in the St. Louis area. Would love to get more of the lineup in stores here. I miss my regular drives from Boston to Framingham for Smoke & Dagger and the different Framinghammers.

    You're like the scorpion crossing the river on the frog's back...you just can't help yourself. I love you for it, frankly.

    But @JacksAbbyBrewing -- don't take the bait!
