NEWS RELEASE

UNION JACK BREWING COMPANY

*************************
Local Craft brewer Union Jack Brewing Company is excited to announce the launch of two products at The Beer Store locations in Sault Ste. Marie. 

Both the Rapid River Cream Ale and Lock City Common are now available for sale in single 473 mL cans at all 4 locations.

“This is a very big day for us,” said Jordan Jack president of Union Jack. “We are also continuing to work with the LCBO to get our products listed both at the LCBO and grocery stores by next month.”

With the May long weekend approaching it would appear that the timing couldn’t have been better, as the weekend is seen as the unofficial start to summer. 

Saultites may be doubly pleased as it appears the long weekend is going to be a hot one with temperatures above 20 degrees most of the weekend. 

The brewery is hoping that the hot temperatures mean an increase in demand for cold drinks.

Asked what’s next for the brewery, Jordan responded “We plan to begin selling our beer in Sudbury by July and other communities in North Eastern Ontario shortly there afterwards. New beers will be available at the brewery on occasion. We’re just hoping we can keep up”

The Brewery was founded by two brothers Jeff and Jordan Jack. It was opened less than 1 year ago. 

Today there are six employees and the business continues to grow every month. The beer is currently available at more than 20 bars and restaurants in Sault Ste. Marie. 

The brewery produces four regular products Rapid River Cream Ale, Lock City Common, Algoma Pale Ale, and 1870 Amber Ale. 

There is a new brew, a lager, which the company expects to launch as a seasonal product within the next month.
