Rock Chalk, Stone Brewing Co.

The country’s tenth-largest craft brewery is expanding its distribution footprint.

The San Diego, Calif.-based company today announced that, for the first time, its beers will be available at on and off-premise locations in Kansas beginning July 22.

“Kansas has long been a state that has expressed interest in having our beers available in their local watering holes,” Stone Director of National Sales Jason Armstrong said in a press statement. “We distribute to two neighboring states, Colorado and Missouri, and have seen plenty of Kansans crossing the border to attend events and buy our beer. It’s an accomplishment to add Kansas to our Stone family and contribute to the growing craft beer scene there.”

Stone Brewing has signed with three distributors in the state: Central States Beverage Company, Crown Distributors LLC and LDF Sales & Distributing, Inc. Available beers will include:

  • Stone Pale Ale
  • Stone Smoked Porter
  • Stone IPA
  • Stone Levitation Ale
  • Stone Ruination IPA
  • Arrogant Bastard Ale
  • OAKED Arrogant Bastard Ale
  • Stone Cali-Belgique IPA
  • Stone Sublimely Self-Righteous Ale

A number of launch events are already scheduled for the week of July 22, 2013. Additional details about those events can be found in the company release.
