Evans Brewing Company Expands Distribution to Colorado

The Centennial State Joins California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico Where the Company's Beers Are Distributed


IRVINE, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 27, 2016) -  Evans Brewing Company (OTC PINK: ALES), a producer of award-winning premium craft beers, today announced an agreement with New Age Beverage, LLC for distribution of its core year-round packaged beers to retailers in Colorado.

"Colorado is home to one of the best craft beer markets in the country," stated Hans Schmidt, Beer Manager of New Age Beverage. "We are excited to add the award-winning Evans Brewing Company products to our portfolio and offer these unique beers to the sophisticated consumers of Colorado."

Distribution to Colorado, a traditional craft beer mecca and host to the Great America Beer Festival, brings the number of states where the company's ales and lagers are available to seven, joining California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico.

Evans Brewing Company's year-round offerings are Pollen Nation Honey Blonde Ale, The KrHOPen India Pale Ale, Oaklore Brown Ale, and ChocōLatté Chocolate Porter. To see the full range of Evans branded beers, please visit http://www.evansbrewco.com/thebeer#beer.

Expanded product distribution is one element of Evans Brewing Company's ongoing growth strategy. The company launched a comprehensive beer rebranding initiative in mid-2015, including new bottle labels that feature vivid designed, hand drawn artwork and custom die cut labels highlighting the outline shape of California where the beers are produced in Orange County's oldest brewery. Distribution agreements for Evans Brewing's packaged core year-round products covering additional states and regions are expected to be finalized in the near term.

"There has been so much excitement and positive feedback surrounding the launch of our new branding, and we are thrilled to introduce our branded packaged products to the Colorado market," said Jeromy Roush, Vice President of Sales for Evans Brewing Company. "Colorado is a very craft-centric region, and we feel our beers will give Colorado's craft enthusiasts a taste of a unique and historical Southern California brewery."
