Laker Beer Now More Prominent at The Beer Store


KITCHENER, ON--(Marketwired - February 04, 2016) - Brick Brewing Co. Limited ("Brick" or the "Company") (TSX: BRB), Ontario's largest Canadian-owned brewery, announced today that Laker Lager 24 bottle packs would be on display in The Beer Store during February and March. Laker Lager, with a free bonus tall can in every case priced at $31.95, will be a featured product in The Beer Store, on display in over 310 stores.

George Croft, President and Chief Executive Officer at Brick Brewing commented, "This opportunity to feature Laker Lager on lobby display is a tangible outcome of the recent work by the Premier's Advisory Council to improve beer retail practices in Ontario. Here at Brick Brewing, our ability to access The Beer Store display programs will more than double in 2016 versus a year ago! This gives us the ability to increase the exposure of Laker Lager to more beer drinkers, and invites them to experience the award-winning taste and quality of our products. We're taking advantage of this improved access to beer drinkers by offering our 24 bottle packs of Laker Lager at $31.95, with a free bonus tall can in every case. So now even more people will see Laker Lager is clearly the best beer deal in Ontario. Period," said Croft.

"We expect to see more positive changes in the weeks and months to come. Expanding The Beer Store shelf space for small brewers like Brick Brewing is underway now, and should take a few more weeks to complete. The rollout of beer into grocery is continuing and will see Laker more accessible for consumers across the province. This is a big win for beer drinkers in Ontario, and for small brewers like Brick Brewing," added Croft.

Look for Laker Lager 24 bottle packs with free bonus tall can in every case at your local TBS outlet.
