M.S. Walker to Distribute Battle Road Beer

Beloved Brand to Be Available in MA & RI as Early as Spring 2015

For the first time since the 1980s, M.S. Walker will distribute beer—in addition to its enviable portfolio of wine and spirits—throughout Massachusetts and Rhode Island. The fifth-generation wholesale distributor based in Somerville, MA, will take on the distribution of Battle Road Brewing Company when the beloved beer brand re-launches as early as Spring 2015 with a new design, format, and eventual brewery and brewpub slated for later this year.

“After 30 years, we are excited to return to beer distribution with full confidence that M.S. Walker can assist Battle Road in becoming an industry leader,” says Michael Brody, Vice President of Sales for M.S. Walker. “As a family-owned business founded in Massachusetts not far from the Battle Road, we are intrinsically tied to and inspired by Battle Road Brewing Company’s mission and best-in-class products.”

The M.S. Walker distribution deal is the latest development in the re-launch of Battle Road Brewing Company, which is being spearheaded by Whole House Group and Managing Partner Greg Hill, in partnership with Battle Road Brewing Company founders Jeremy Cross and Scott Houghton. Whole House Group will lead the charge through 2015 to further establish Battle Road as a nationally-recognized beer with strong ties to its Massachusetts birthplace. When Battle Road re-launches in Spring 2015, a number of improvements will be made, including:

Look                                         Battle Road will unveil a new logo (see above right corner), branding, product design, and website.

Format                                    Instead of 22-oz bottles, Battle Road will now be available in 12-oz cans.

Distribution                         In a distribution partnership with respected wine and spirits distributor M.S. Walker, Battle Road will be available at hundreds of retail shops and bars and restaurants throughout Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

Brewing/Brewery             Jeremy Cross and Scott Houghton will continue to contract brew until their vision to establish a dedicated brewery and brewpub in the Battle Road area comes alive in 2015.
