SANDPOINT — As part of an overall strategic plan, Sandpoint based Laughing Dog Brewing Company has announced it will not be moving forward with Craig Stein Beverage “CSB” as their Southern Idaho distributor and will be partnering with Hayden Beverage Company for the area. The transition is underway.

“As CSB’s first craft beer supplier in their Southern Idaho operation, we are thankful for what the team at CSB has done for our brand,” said president and owner Lewis Patrick. “We’ve had a great partnership and have experienced tremendous growth in the Boise area. 2019 brings new opportunities and goals, we are aligned and looking forward to accomplishing those goals with Hayden Beverage.”

“For almost 50 years, a key component of Hayden Beverage has been promoting Idaho products.

“We are thrilled to represent Laughing Dog and their products which speak so strongly of Idaho,” said Dodds Hayden of Hayden Beverage Company.

Laughing Dog continues to concentrate on their backyard and is considered a “local” brewery in the Boise area. 2019 holds plans to expand into Canada and continue to focus on their Award-Winning beers.

As one of only eight breweries nationwide to be chosen for the Brewery Direct Program with Total Wines and More, you can find their beer in over 100 stores across the country.

Founded in Ponderay in 2005, Laughing Dog Brewing Company expanded to a state-of-the-art facility specifically designed for the brewery in 2016. The brewery currently operates a 15-barrel brewing system and offers nine year-round beers, five seasonal releases, as well as a small batch series.

Laughing Dog Brewing has been voted “Sandpoint’s Finest Brewery” and their brews have won numerous medals.
