Ashland, VA — September 2, 2026 — Wine and Beer Supply, LLC (wineandbeersupply.com) today announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire the assets of Havoc Brew Supply / Hop Havoc (hophavoc.com), effective September 1, 2026. The acquisition expands Wine & Beer Supply’s brewing portfolio with hops, fruit purees, and cleaning chemicals, furthering the company’s goal of becoming the one-stop supply partner for breweries and beverage producers.

Hop Havoc will continue to operate under its existing name and website as part of the growing CraftBevCo family, providing continuity for its customers while gaining access to Wine & Beer Supply’s broader inventory, distribution network, and resources.

With four strategically located warehouses in Ashland, VA; Penn Yan, NY; Hammonton, NJ; and Pittsburgh, PA, Wine & Beer Supply provides customers across the East Coast and beyond with ready access to inventory and reliable delivery.

The Hop Havoc acquisition is the latest step in Wine & Beer Supply’s continued expansion. The company recently opened its Pittsburgh location to better serve breweries and wineries throughout Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, and surrounding markets, while also adding new lines of premium malts and yeasts. Together with its longstanding offerings in packaging, equipment, cans, trays, PakTech carriers, decorated glassware and other beverage supplies, the additions create one of the most comprehensive product portfolios in the industry.

“We’re excited to welcome Hop Havoc to the Wine & Beer Supply and CraftBevCo family,” said Dave Robertson, CEO. “With malts, yeast, hops, purees, equipment and parts, packaging, decorated glassware, and four warehouses ready to support our customers, we can provide breweries with an incredibly broad range of products from a single partner. Our goal is simple, make sourcing easier so brewers can have the freedom to do what they love, make great craft beer.”

“We couldn’t be happier to combine with Wine & Beer Supply,” said Dylan Kryzwonski, founder of Hop Havoc. “Our brewery customers have trusted us for years, and joining the CraftBevCo family allows us to offer customers a much broader range of products and resources, backed by greater inventory, more locations, and additional expertise, while maintaining the quality and service they have always counted on.”

Hop Havoc has built a strong reputation among breweries for quality hops, responsive service, and dependable supply. Customers will benefit from a substantially broader product offering and Wine & Beer Supply’s four-warehouse distribution network. From startup breweries to established regional producers, Wine & Beer Supply provides malts, yeast, hops, fruit purees, cleaning chemicals, equipment, packaging, decorated glassware, and other essential beverage-production supplies.

Wine & Beer Supply is part of the CraftBevCo family of companies, alongside Hop Havoc, Gino Pinto, and East Coast Beverage Services.
