Making Our Cider Available in These Locations: A Journey We're Proud Of
While it may seem obvious to many of you, getting our cider into these locations has been a long and arduous process. We're thrilled to have finally made it happen!
What started as a simple meeting with a group of eight private wine stores in Winnipeg turned into a promising opportunity, as they asked us not to sell our cider to the Manitoba Liquor stores and promised to make it worth our while. Unfortunately, the strike put things on hold. Months later, when things started moving again, we discovered that we needed self-distribution and specific programs to access the system through MBLL, the governing body.
Update on Our Progress
It's been a journey since we started the process in June 2023, but now we have exciting news to share. We've enlisted Oxus Brewing Company to manage our programs, and several wine stores have started carrying our products. For the month of January, you can even find our Good Bye Earl cider on tap at The Common. We're anticipating more wine stores to place orders, so keep an eye out for our cider at additional locations throughout the city. While it wasn't easy getting to this point, we're committed to making our progress even smoother from here on out. In the meantime, please support us by visiting the locations mentioned above and purchasing our cider. If your local wine store doesn't carry our cider, feel free to inquire about it. They can order it upon request, and it would mean the world to us to have more people asking for our cider by name.
