    Is mega-expansion the right description? How big is their system currently?

    Either way, very happy for them! Great people making great beer. They are one of the breweries who actually deserves their success.

    That's a weird comment. Who doesn't deserve to be successful in your mind?

    Haha - true!

    I'm not going to name names but there have been a few breweries that are seeing success while being less than pleasant and pumping out very mediocre beers. But the Enron comment above makes me realize that it's more of a commentary on business in general rather than breweries. There are people out there who really don't deserve to be successful based on how they conduct themselves so I'm always happy when good things happen to good people.

    This is great news. Love these guys. I could drink an endless amount of Derivative Galaxy. Can't wait to see where they go in 2017.

    I look forward to trying their beers - while within easy shot of Boston, I've yet to make it down there or trade for any of their beers. I wonder if this expansion includes any retail distro in the Boston market?

    Maybe they've scaled back since, but I've occasionally seen Proclamation on the shelves at Pemberton Farms in Cambridge and elsewhere.

    Yep derivative and tendril have been around. Not in huge amounts but pretty frequently over they last little while.

    Cool thanks - that gives me a reason to head out there as I really like that place and have only been a few times.

    Not Boston, but frequently on tap at Armsby as well. Derivative Galaxy is the real deal, some batches I've enjoyed more than Galaxy Fort Point, which is one of my favorites in the style.

    Good for Proclamation.

    Haven't had the opportunity to try anything from them yet. Hear good things and reviews are promising. Beers look great from pics I've seen. Would love to see some CT. distro.
