If memory serves me well, originally Drinks was shipping to Michigan, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas, Nevada and California. They also stated they would focus on the Midwest first and then move to each coast.

We should know more between now and the next CC. Regardless, this is a good time for Drinks shareholders.

I'm no expert in the beer business, but it seems prudent to develop production and distribution well in advance of marketing and selling. I would hope those factors are squared away and beer is on the shelf prior to much capital going toward promotion. I would opine that 6+ months would be a good time frame. All IMO.

There are two things in this world that qualify as "slow" and they are the slowest thing in the world to occur. Anything to do with a distributor is slow. Getting them to return phone calls or do anything proactive unless it is putting money in their hands this very moment. Distributors do not file for label approvals until they are ready to sell product. They aren't going to put in a label for approval now on a product that is 6 months away. Mason did the same thing at MBC. They knew they were doing the beer almost a year ago, and the approvals came less than a week before the Born on the Fourth of July production.

Oh, the other thing that is the slowest? Waiting on some fidget to update a bar or restaurant website. Good luck on that one.
