E-Malt.com News article: USA, NY: Blue Point Brewery releases White IPA in cans

Blue Point Brewing Company, Long Island’s oldest craft brewery announced on July, 27 the official release of White IPA, their latest craft brew and first package to be available year round in 15 states only in 12-oz. cans.

While beer enthusiasts have been able to enjoy White IPA on draft in select craft beer bars from Florida to Michigan since mid 2011, six-packs and cases will now be available for purchase to enjoy at home.

"We've never seen a new beer move like this. It’s been such a challenge keeping up with demand for White IPA on draft that we had to delay the release of the cans until after the peak summer season" said Blue Point president, Pete Cotter.

Earlier this year, Blue Point Brewing Company joined the ranks of some of the leading craft breweries in the country with the release of their flagship, award-winning Toasted Lager and Summer Ale in cans this spring.

Blue Point White IPA cans are available in the brewery’s tasting room and are on their way to beer store shelves in all 15 states of distribution: New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and Michigan.
