Greetings from Maryland!

Maryland, here we come! To kick off the spring season, our team is excited to announce our distribution expansion into Maryland, bringing our beloved brews to even more beer lovers. Beginning this month, our team will start distributing our core products, including Cape May IPA, Always Ready Pale Ale, and Coastal Evacuation Double IPA, along with the IPA Variety Pack, to retailers in MD.

This expansion is made possible through an exciting partnership with Bond Distributing, Buck Distributing, and Northeast Beverage—all part of the HOBO network, which have successfully distributed Cape May brews in Philadelphia for over a decade. Additionally, Carey Distributing will represent us along the Eastern Shore, ensuring MD Cape May fans can find these core beers across your region. 

“We are beyond excited to bring our beers to Maryland,” said Cape May Brewing Company CEO and Co-founder Ryan Krill. “As a brewery deeply rooted in the coastal lifestyle, expanding into Maryland feels like a natural fit. Maryland’s rich maritime heritage, thriving waterfront communities, and passion for craft beer align perfectly with our brand’s identity. This market presents an exciting opportunity to share our shore-inspired brews with a new audience that values quality, tradition, and a connection to the water.”

Our team has worked hard to build a strong reputation for crafting exceptional beers that capture the spirit of the Jersey Shore and beyond. Now, our Maryland fans and craft beer lovers will get to experience firsthand why ‘It’s What Vacation Tastes Like.’ By working with these established distribution partners, we are able to ensure a strong position in Maryland’s diverse and growing beer landscape. 

“Our partnerships with Bond, Buck, Northeast, and Carey Distributing mark an exciting new chapter for Cape May Brewing Co.,” said Jason Griffin, director of sales at Cape May Brewing Company. “Their deep market knowledge and commitment to excellence will help us reach Maryland customers who are eager for quality craft beer. We look forward to a successful and collaborative journey.”

We previously distributed our products exclusively in New Jersey, Delaware, and Pennsylvania, so this expansion marks the latest growth milestone for our brewery. By entering the Maryland market, we continue working towards our mission to bring bold, refreshing flavors to craft beer lovers along the East Coast. 

Cape May beer fans across Maryland: you can look forward to finding Cape May’s iconic brews on shelves and on tap starting this month, with more distribution to come in the following months! 

“We couldn't be more excited to partner with these wholesalers as we expand our distribution footprint,” said Wholesale Market Manager Scott McIntyre. “Their expertise and commitment to craft beer make them ideal partners as we continue to grow our presence. We’re looking forward to a successful launch and a strong future in Maryland.”
