Prairie Artisan Ales, an award-winning Oklahoma brewery out of Tulsa, is the latest craft brewery to enter the Arizona market.
Valley-based Quail Distributing will begin delivering Prairie beers throughout the state in mid-November.
‘‘In the past, Prairie Artisan Ales were only found in Arizona by those who traded for the beer out of state, or hauled it back into Arizona from surrounding states,’’ Quail craft beer manager Shawn Hillman says.
‘‘We are thrilled that Prairie chose to partner with Quail and that we are able to bring the famous Prairie Bomb! to Arizona along with many other unique and exciting brews from the Prairie Artisan collection.’’
Prairie has been named one of the top 100 breweries in the world by RateBeer.com each of the past two years.
Its flagship Prairie Bomb! imperial stout has been named as one of the top 100 beers in the world for three straight years.
