“Einstök is brewed with naturally pure Icelandic glacier water that helps create beers that are special and unique.” said David Altshuler, an Einstök Founder, and CEO. “This merger allows the residents of Austin and Houston to experience Iceland in every Einstok beer they drink.”

Tristan Maldonado, CEO of Hops and Vines Distributing added, “We are very excited to continue our commitment to craft breweries and expand their market presence. Einstok has demonstrated quality, consistency and remarkable support to put great Icelandic beer into Texans’ hands.”

The expansion of Einstök’s U.S. and global distribution continues to grow at a steady pace. Based on data from Statistics Iceland, Einstök is the largest exporter of alcoholic beverages from Iceland.

At present, Einstök brews Icelandic White Ale, Icelandic Arctic Pale Ale, Icelandic Toasted Porter, Icelandic Wee Heavy and three seasonal brews: Icelandic Arctic Berry Ale, Icelandic Doppelbock and Icelandic Winter Ale. Along with the US and its home country Iceland, Einstök is now available in 24 countries, inclusive of the British Isles, most of Europe, China and South Korea.

While the valiant #Leafs have been held back from drinking from Lord Stanley’s Cup since the 1966-67 season, hopes are high as the team ices one of its most promising rosters in decades, the result of embracing change and doing things differently than they had during the drought.  With this in mind, why drink the way you used to while watching NHL playoff hockey?

Einstök, Iceland’s #1 Craft Beer, is proud to announce the arrival of its celebrated ales and lagers in the Greater Toronto Area, starting with double gold medal winner White Ale, now available through the LCBO online (click here to order). Starting today, Torontonians will be able to quench their Viking thirst with Einstök’s award-winning brews and enjoy a fresh new way to savor playoff hockey, as the Leafs march to victory.

Einstök, which means unique in Icelandic, is located just 60 miles south of the Arctic circle in the quaint fishing port of Akureyri. There, Einstök’s award-winning ales are brewed with the purest water on earth, originating from prehistoric glaciers and rain flows down Hlíðarfjall Mountain, the perfect foundation for brewing deliciously refreshing craft beer.

Drink. Conquer. Repeat.

Go Leafs Go!
