Walmart selected Armed Forces Brewing Co.‘s Cat Shot American Craft Lager for distribution in its stores, and other beers are being considered. Cat Shot is a 5.3% ABV American craft lager that pays homage to pre-Prohibition style lagers. A touch of corn sweetness balances super-clean American hops making Cat Shot lager quenching and repeatable.
“Sam Walton founded a values-driven company that today is grounded in four core values: respect, service, excellence, and integrity. Armed Forces Brewing Company believes in those same values and is excited to partner with Walmart and Sam’s Club,” said Alan Beal, CEO of the brewery.
Being selected by Walmart to be sold in its stores at this early stage will help the brewery to scale its distribution nationwide. “While our beer is available in most states by mail order, a handful of states in brick-and-mortar stores and we just signed deals to move into Texas and Florida, the credibility for our brand that Walmart brings will allow us to scale the company even faster,” said O’Neill. “Many people didn’t think we could do this so fast, but they should never underestimate what American Veterans and special operators can do.”
