Mims Distributing Company Adds Coronado Brewing Company to Its Portfolio
North Carolina Distributor Taps San Diego Brewery and Current World Beer Cup Mid-Sized Brewery Champions to Expand Selection for Beer Lovers Statewide.
Raleigh, NC, April 23, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Mims Distributing Company, a wholesale beverage distributor in North Carolina, has announced the addition of Coronado Brewing Company to its lineup of brewing partners. The San Diego-based brewer offers beer lovers 14 award-winning ales including Islander IPA, Orange Avenue Wit and Mermaid’s Red.

As demand grew throughout the San Diego community, Coronado Brewing Company expanded beyond the brewpub and partnered with a local craft distribution company to bring their hand-crafted brews throughout the state. By 2014, Coronado Brewing Company had expanded outside of California into over 20 states and ten countries and has opened a 22,000-square-foot building to keep up with growing demand.
Coronado Brewing Company focuses on bringing abundantly hoppy West Coast style ales to beer lovers throughout the country. The brewery and its brewmasters are currently the World Beer Cup Mid-Sized Brewery Champions, one of the most prestigious awards in the industry, with its Islander IPA winning a gold medal in the IPA category. Additionally, this past year Coronado Brewing Company opened a tasting room and restaurant in Imperial Beach, California.
