When Short’s Brewing Company announced in January that they intended to start distributing outside the state, Ohio wasn’t on the initial Short list (rimshot) of states that would be receiving the Michigan-brewed beers.

But Short’s IS coming to Ohio, starting March 19, through Cavalier distributing. Short’s is also launching in Indiana on that date.

“For many years, six-packs of Short’s have migrated south with vacationing Hoosiers and Buckeyes. Cavalier Distributing is excited to bring Short’s into Ohio and Indiana and help people catch up with their fantastic beers from Michigan,” said Cavalier Founder/President George Fisher in a statement.

Short’s will launch locally with flagship brands Huma Lupa Licious India Pale Ale, Soft Parade Fruit Rye Ale, Bellaire Brown American Brown Ale, and Space Rock Gluten-Reduced Pale Ale; plus seasonal release ControversiALE American India Pale Ale. Ohio will also receive three Starcut Ciders brands: Pulsar semi-dry hard cider, Octorock semi-sweet hard cider, and Squishy semi-sweet cider, made with Michigan cherries. These beers and ciders will be available both in bottle and on draft throughout the state.
