LOS ANGELES, May 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Drinks Americas
(OTC: DKAM; "Drinks Americas" or the "Company"), the exclusive
United States broker for leading
premium authentic Mexican beers currently present in over 34
states, today is pleased to announce that Indiana wholesaler, Graybull Wines has proved
to be a strong ally for the Company's line of premium authentic
Mexican Day of the Dead Craft Beer, placing it in their accounts
across the state.
Graybull Wines is an independent, family owned Indiana licensed wholesaler that promotes and
distributes traditional and organically certified wines and craft
beers to hundreds of boutique wine stores, grocery stores, liquor
stores, and select restaurants throughout Indiana. They are one of only a small number
of beer and wine wholesalers in Indiana that support the entire state.
Product is delivered weekly to nearly all markets and in many cases
can be delivered within 48 hours notice if requested.
The Indiana wholesaler started
operations in 2006 and is based out of a temperature controlled
warehouse in Indianapolis. Graybull Wines is unique in
that they support their accounts with wine and beer dinners,
consumer tasting events, and fund-raising festivals on a weekly
basis to allow the consumer the opportunity to sample their
products.
According to Derek Gray,
President of Graybull Wines, the Company's premium authentic
Mexican Day of the Dead Craft Beer brand is their top selling beer
brand. They launched the brand in Cost Plus World Market,
Whole Foods, The Fresh Market, and many independent wine stores and
liquors stores throughout the state.
Commenting on Day of the Dead, Mr. Gray stated "The sell through
is consistent and the beers are popular at consumer events as beer
drinkers enjoy trying new brands, especially from regions which
traditionally don't have craft breweries – like Mexico. We
receive consistent positive feedback from store buyers and
consumers that the taste and quality of the beer backs up the
eye-catching graphics."
"Our authentic, brewed-in-Mexico and Mexican-owned Day of the Dead Craft
Beer is a stellar match for Graybull Wines' book of boutique wine,
grocery and liquor store clients across the state of Indiana. Not only do they distribute but they
also promote their wine and beer offering making them a valuable
partner for us in expanding awareness of our real Mexican craft
beer and helping us score placement in vital points-of-sale like
Whole Foods and Fresh Market among others," commented Joseph Belli, VP of Sales, Day of the Dead Craft
Beer.
Timothy Owens, Chief Executive
Officer of Drinks Americas, added, "We are thrilled at the positive
reception Graybull has been receiving from their customers on your
exclusive and unique Mexican beer – and look forward to their
continued efforts to promote the quality, taste and presentation of
our premium authentic Day of the Dead Craft Beer to their accounts
throughout Indiana."
