INDIANAPOLIS — A self-distributing craft-beer brewer in Indiana is making its beers available to grocery and convenience stores for the first time with an expansion of its delivery services.

Sun King Brewery, the largest brewery in Indiana that distributes beer exclusively within the state, is initiating statewide distribution in grocery and c-stores. New 12-ounce cans of Sun King’s first and most-popular brews—Sunlight Cream Ale and Wee Mac Scottish Ale—were made available to grocery and convenience stores for the first time in late July. Sun King also has updated the packaging of its 16-ounce cans.

Sun King recently completed a $2 million expansion to its downtown Indianapolis brewing facility in response to the growing demand for its beers. Investments in new brewing equipment, technology and processes now allow Sun King to produce fresh beer that Indiana grocers and convenience stores can stock on shelves, increasing Sun King’s distribution and making their beers more widely available to Hoosiers.

All beers carry a “packaged-on” date, and Sun King recommends that all beer be refrigerated and consumed within 90 days of its packaging.

“Over the past few years we’ve decided to make dramatic infrastructure and technology improvements to our brewery in order to supply delicious beer that is ‘uniquely Indiana’ to Hoosier beer fans throughout the state,” said Clay Robinson, co-founder of Sun King. “These investments will allow us to be innovative and flexible with processes and packaging, as well as be creative with new products and releases while still maintaining our high standards of quality.”

In addition to offering new 12-ounce cans, Sun King will begin rolling out new boxed-packaging for all of its four-packs of 16-ounce cans. Refrigerated 16-ounce four-packs are available only at Sun King’s breweries and liquor stores throughout Indiana.
