Upland to distribute product in Chicago

Last year, Upland sold about 3,000 to 4,000 barrels of its beer at its own retail establishments, which include two brewpubs in Indianapolis and one each in Carmel, Columbus and Bloomington, as well as tasting facilities at its two Bloomington breweries. Submitted photo

Upland Brewing Co. will partner with Heartland Beverage to distribute its portfolio of craft beer, blended hard seltzers, and wood-aged sours throughout Chicago this spring.

Founded in 1998, Upland Brewing is the third largest brewery in Indiana with eight locations, three unique breweries, and national distribution. The anticipated launch in Chicago completes Upland’s statewide footprint in Illinois and further establishes the brewery’s regional presence.
