After successfully launching in the greater St. Louis area in 2019, Surly is thrilled to be travelling across I-70 to western Missouri & Kansas as they open distribution to both markets.
“The response to Surly in St. Louis made expanding to the rest of the state and into Kansas a priority for us,” said Surly vice president of sales Bob Repp. “And given all the market disruptions of the last 18 months, identifying a reliable and experienced distribution partner made the decision to expand further in this region even easier,” said Repp.
In partnership with Speakeasy Distribution, Surly is targeting November for full distribution across Kansas and western Missouri. Craft beer drinkers will see the full portfolio of Surly’s flagship, core, seasonal and limited releases at various retailers, bars and restaurants from Kansas City to Wichita. Brands will include Furious IPA, Axe Man IPA, Darkness Russian Imperial Stout and all four of the Supreme Tart Ale varieties.
“Surly’s unwavering commitment to create high quality beer and push boundaries in the craft brewery industry for the past 15 years felt like a natural fit with our track record for bringing best-in-class brands to our markets,” said Speakeasy founders and owners Ron Elkouri and Riley Stephens.
Mark your calendars for November and watch Surly’s social channels for updates. Ideally, as the holiday season approaches, the citizens of western Missouri and Kansas can give the gift of Furious to the discerning craft beer enthusiasts in their lives.
