SKA BREWING EXPANDS INTO NEVADA, BRINGING ITS BEERS TO A SIXTH STATE

Colorado brewery partners with Cellar Craft Distributors to expand its presence across the West.

DURANGO, COLORADO — Ska Brewing is continuing its expansion across the western United States, announcing a new distribution partnership that brings its beers to Nevada through a statewide distribution network.

The Durango-based brewery announced the expansion on October 16, 2026, partnering with Cellar Craft Distributors to introduce its products throughout Nevada, including the Las Vegas market.

With Nevada joining its distribution network, Ska Brewing now reaches six states, according to the brewery’s announcement.

The Nevada launch was planned around two Las Vegas events on October 17 and 18, including a Joker’s Republic performance at Red Dwarf and the Craft and Kitchen Punk Rock Brunch.

The introduction features several Ska Brewing offerings, including Modus Hoperandi IPA, its Mexican-style lager, Hazy IPA, and West Coast IPA.

For Ska Brewing co-founder Dave Thibodeau, the expansion brings the brewery into a market that has long been familiar territory, even if its beers were not previously distributed there.

“We’re stoked to add Nevada to our list of distribution states,” Thibodeau said in the announcement.

Founded in 1995, Ska Brewing has established its identity through a combination of punk-rock culture and a lineup of beers that includes its popular Mexican Logger and Modus Hoperandi IPA.

The Nevada expansion offers Ska Brewing another opportunity to introduce its brands to new customers while building on its existing presence in the western craft beer market.
