Westbrook in nc

Mike, so what you are saying is, that we will get Mexican Cake and Variants in NC?

 

Well from what people are saying it is just the core so white thai, ipa, gose and one claw for now.

 

Correct. Maybe NC will see some MC in 2016, but even that is doubtful.

 

Juice is now Advintage in NC....they have now merged/been bought out/whatever, that is the reason that suddenly "the distributor known as Juice" is starting to get beer brands....it is yet to be seen if they can get their NC staff up to par in the beer scene....they got some trainin' to do! This is why Westbrook is being distributed by them as they carry them down in SC. Core brands coming now, supposedly others coming later...we shall see...

 

They poured some Westbrook things at their Warehouse open house industry party yesterday. I wanted to go just to see what they had, but I didnt get enough notice sadly.

 

Just out of idle curiosity, what would have been enough notice? Trade shows, large or small, always are dog and pony affairs.

 

Seeing as variants are brewery only and the brewery is in SC I would give that a 0% chance of happening.

 

I was given 3 days, i need 2-3 weeks to make sure i have it off. Generally trade shows by other distributors give me over a month notice, mainly because they understand the people that would be coming need advance planning. Didnt help that I was in W-S for 2 weeks and didnt have access to the work email that they sent it to.

 

Gotcha. Oh, well.
