Barrelhouse Brewing adds Reyes Beverage Group distribution

Barrelhouse Brewing Co. announced that Reyes Beverage Group will be its distributor from Santa Barbara to San Diego along with Allied Beverages, Harbor Distributing, Gate City Beverage Distributors, Unique Craft Solutions and Crest Beverage.

“Our brewing team has just as much experience making wine as they do brewing beer. Our teams approach to brewing lends to unique, balanced portfolio beers and incredible barrel projects both non-sour and sour,” said Jason Carvalho, owner/president. “Reyes Beverage Group’s broad distribution experience and commitment to quality craft beer makes them an excellent partner to help us deliver our beer fresh throughout southern California.”

Tom Reyes, president Reyes Beverage Group West, said, “Barrelhouse is continuing the great tradition of brewing hand-crafted Californian beer. We are grateful they are helping us meet our retailers, and their consumers, demand for locally sourced top-quality beer.”

Barrelhouse Brewing Co. is located in Paso Robles, Calif. Founded in 2011 by cousins and Co-owners Jason Carvalho and Kevin Nickell and joined in 2013 by longtime friend Chris Vaughn who had been brewing with the team since their early recipe development stages in Carvalho’s garage. Since then the team of craftsman including Head Brewer George Numair, Lead Brewer Mathew Jacobs, and Brewer/Cellar Master Gavin Warnock have been pushing the boundaries of beer. Their focus is on unique, drinkable beers with a constant flow of small batch projects.

Barrelhouse portfolio beers includes Barrelhouse Blonde, Barrelhouse Rye IPA, Barrelhouse IPA, and Barrelhouse Stout on draft and in 22 ouncebottles. Additionally, Barrelhouse is releasing the first two beers from their Salvaje de Robles (Sour of the Oak) series this month. These unique, balanced sour projects are the perfect marriage of wine and beer making techniques that have been in use for thousands of years.
