Shelton Bros in Texas



From the BA Forums:
Most of you probably don't know me, but I work for Shelton Brothers Importers, and just moved to Fort Worth from Madison, WI (and Chicago, before that). As most of you are probably aware, the exorbitant licensing fees and unique labeling requirements in TX limit what we're able to bring in to the state, but nonetheless, we are making a few strides. With that, the following are scheduled to hit our distributor's warehouse sometime in the next several days:

Mikkeller It's Alive (750ml)
Mikkeller Monk's Brew (750ml)
Mikkeller Big Worse Barley Wine (375ml)
Slaapmutske Tripel Nightcap (750ml)
Ridgeway Foreign Export Stout (500ml)
Ridgeway IPA (500ml)
Ridgeway Bad King John (500ml)
Kapuziner Weissbier (500ml)
Kulmbacher Eisbock (330ml 6-packs)
Kulmbacher Edelherb Pils (5L mini-kegs)
Kulmbacher Moenchshof Schwarzbier (5L mini-kegs)

These are all being distributed statewide by Mexcor, who seems pretty serious about jumping into the craft beer business.

For detailed information on any of the beers, please visit our site at www.sheltonbrothers.com.

On the next order, which we hope will follow quickly, we'll also be looking to add some kegs, and then we'll be introducing a few more beers, including the various holiday beers from these breweries, over the course of the next several months. Eventually, we hope to add a few more breweries from our portfolio, as well, but first we need to be reasonably sure that the combination of the interest level in the market and the availability of the beers in question is going to justify the annual cost.

Any questions, please feel free to email me directly at ron@sheltonbrothers.com.

Cheers,
