Grayton Beer Company Adds Distribution in Tennessee

SANTA ROSA BEACH, Fla.,– Grayton Beer Company, the South Walton County Florida craft brewery, announces a partnership with middle Tennessee’s BountyBev.

Delivering brands to eight central Tennessee counties, BountyBev operates the only 100 percent American craft beer distributorship in The Greater Nashville area. The Grayton Beer-BountyBev alliance expands the availability of Grayton Beer Company’s classic, contemporary beers in BountyBev’s heavily-populated region. The December roll out includes Grayton Beer’s popular year-round styles, 30A Beach Blonde Ale and 30A Rosé Gose.

Located in Walton County, Florida, Grayton Beer Company hosts thousands of tourists annually at both its brewery taproom and its 30A brewpub location. Some 11 percent of these visitors hail from Tennessee.

“Our desire to have a strong partner in middle Tennessee was evident almost as soon as we opened distribution in the state,” said Grayton Beer Company founder, Jamey Price. “Having developed meaningful relationships over the years with visitors from The Volunteer State, our partnership with BountyBev further cultivates the North Florida-Tennessee bond long after they’ve left the beach.”

President and Better Beer Guy, Kurt Strickmaker, is thrilled to add Grayton Beer to the BountyBev portfolio.

“My family has been enjoying a week every summer in Grayton Beach for over a decade. Having met Jamey five years ago and learning of his Nashville roots, we’re both excited and honored to bring his fantastic lineup of beer to middle Tennessee. 30A is already a household name in our area for those who visit the white, sugary sand beaches of the Florida Panhandle. BountyBev is fortunate to call Grayton Beer Company a partner, so consumers can now keep Grayton Beer’s 30A beer stocked in their home fridge!”

Tennessee residents will find Grayton Beer Company beers on the shelves of favorite retailers as well as in restaurants and bars.
