Major Hemp Brown Ale is being distributed by Colorado Craft Distributors (CCD) and is currently being served in over forty-five establishments in the state of Colorado. Reorder interest is high and CCD will be actively fulfilling orders for the next few weeks. The momentum of the hemp beer has taken root in the greater Denver area and the Company expects to win numerous more new locations this year. It also had made contingency plans to more than triple production to fulfill expected near term demand.
Sipp Industries has made significant progress with a multi-state distributor that covers five additional states outside of Colorado. Ted Jorgensen, President of wholly-owned subsidiary Major Hemp, had visited the facility and is currently discussing marketing plans with management. Jorgensen commented, "There is a great story to tell with the successes of Major Hemp Brown Ale and it is taking notice. We are committed to expanding this brand nationally and excited about the partners we plan to take this journey with."
The Company has also been working with its partner, Wanderport Corporation (OTC: WDRP), to make Major Hemp Brown Ale available throughout the state of California. The companies have successfully completed a trial production with a Southern California craft brewery and an actual production is expected to commence this month pending fulfillment of the TTB requirements.
Through Wanderport's beverage affiliates, the companies have also identified distributors who stand ready to market and sell the beer once available. Additional details of the joint venture and expansion plans to California and other states will be provided once certain matters are finalized.
"We are pleased with the success of Major Hemp Brown Ale in Colorado and expect to have similar and greater successes as we expand to California and beyond," commented Syman Vong, Chief Executive Officer. "This is an exciting time for Sipp Industries and our partners. We are eager to start production in California and to share this unique beer with consumers nationwide," added Vong.
