Remarkable Liquids Brings Jolly Pumpkin Brewery Back to New York and New Jersey
Michigan-based, world renowned, brewery returns to NY and NJ with distribution through Remarkable Liquids
GUILDERLAND CENTER, N.Y. (May 31, 2022) — Remarkable Liquids, New York and New Jersey’s premier craft beverage distributor, has begun distribution of Jolly Pumpkin Brewery in New York and New Jersey.
Founded in the Summer of 2004 by Head Brewer Ron Jeffries, Jolly Pumpkin Brewery has firmly established itself as a world-class brewery with an exceptional talent for wildly fermented and barrel-aged beers. Earning 1st Place in the sour category at World Beer Expo in 2010 and rated in the top 50 beers in the world you must try by GQ for their La Roja Flemish-style sour amber ale, Jolly Pumpkin has gained international and critical acclaim for their unique offerings.
Finally returning to New York and New Jersey through Remarkable Liquids, many of Jolly Pumpkin’s highly sought-after and awarded beers will be available once again in both the Garden and Empire states, including:
La Roja Du Kriek Sour Amber Ale — Aged for 13 months in an oak foeder then matured 3 additional months on tart Michigan Montmorency cherries for a pronounced fruit & cherry character. Deep, dark crimson in color with complex fruit & chocolate aromas. Tart, fruity, & earthy with a medium body & subtle acidity that showcases the tart Michigan cherries.
Oro Wild Artisan Golden Ale — Brewed in the Franco-Belgian tradition of strong golden ales. Spicy and peppery with a gentle hop bouquet and the beguiling influence of wild yeast. Named one of the top 25 beers in America by Men’s Journal. Great American Beer Festival Gold medal winner for the Belgian & French Ale category, 2004. Great American Beer Festival Bronze medal winner for the Belgian & French Ale category, 2005.
Bam Biēre Farmhouse Ale — A delicious, low-calorie, farmhouse ale is named for Jolly Pumpkin’s Jack Russell, who struck by a car, bounced back in fine tenacious Jack Russell fashion. This farmhouse ale is brewed for those who when knocked down, have picked up, dusted off, and carried on undaunted. Golden, naturally cloudy, can conditioned, and dry-hopped for a perfectly refreshing balance of spicy malts, hops, & yeast.
Aquamarine Dream Saison — Sail into summer with this tart, blueberry saison. Aquamarine Dream is a saison brewed with blueberry, blackberry, lime peel, and salt. The addition of the berries gives this fruit saison a beautiful hazy reddish-purple appearance. Smells of berries, blueberries, and cream fill the nose. It is tart with flavors of blueberries and blackberries that come together to create an almost boysenberry flavor with a touch of salt.
“When we founded Remarkable Liquids on the principle of carrying exclusively, world-class beverages; Jolly Pumpkin was one of the first breweries that came to mind” said Spencer Noakes, general manager of Remarkable Liquids. “For nearly twenty years Ron and his team have consistently been at the forefront of the craft beer movement and continue to deliver incredible beers that should be searched out by anyone that appreciates the complexity that comes with impeccable barrel aging, anyone who craves funky or loves sour. We hope our friends throughout New York and New Jersey are as excited as we are to have Jolly Pumpkin be more accessible than ever.”
“Our passion has always been to create beers of outstanding art and grace,” said Ron Jeffries owner, brewmaster, and chief squeegee operator at Jolly Pumpkin. “We started very small with a gravity filler and single bottle labeler. We’ve grown a bit and can now offer our beer to more people, but the passion and dedication to quality has not changed. I have always said, ‘we will make as much Jolly Pumpkin Beer as people want to drink’.”
“We could not be happier to partner with Remarkable Liquids to bring Jolly Pumpkin back to New York and New Jersey,” said Tony Grant owner and CEO of Jolly Pumpkin. “To be able to offer Jolly Pumpkin in 16oz cans really increases our ability to fill the demand from our friends who have been asking for more Jolly Pumpkin! We have heard many requests from passionate barrel-aged beer drinkers in New York and New Jersey and we are really happy to finally be able to say, ‘Here we come!’ Thank you for your patience, it will be great to drink with friends when we are there soon!”
Remarkable, now in its ninth year of business, has been ranked as one of the 5000 fastest growing companies in the United States according to Inc. Magazine and has made their list five times in a row (including a 2016 ranking as the 36th fastest growing company in the country) — a feat only one out of four companies making this list have been able to accomplish.
