17th Star Distributing Co., LLC is a craft beer distributorship in Ohio, the 17th star on the United States flag. We were founded in 2014 on the belief that the growth and popularity of small craft breweries has created a need for a small craft distributor, one that can adapt more quickly to the ever-changing beer marketplace and better serve the needs of the new breweries and modern retailers, bars and restaurants. At its core, the growth of the American craft beer industry shares the same values and beliefs that shaped this great country: a quest for something better, a passion to make it happen, a relentless work ethic, a commitment to excellence and good old fashioned American ingenuity. At 17th Star, those values are embraced by us just as firmly as they are embraced by the breweries we represent. We are a new breed of distributorship, born of the craft beer revolution.People are demanding more out of their beer. They are demanding quality, flavor and variety. They're looking for unique styles and beer that is compatible with different foods. And they want to drink fresh beer that's locally brewed. It all adds up to a rapidly changing beer landscape. New breweries, new beers, limited releases … it can be difficult to stand out in the crowd. The breweries we represent have gained acclaim not only for making great beer, but for their innovation, for pushing boundaries of flavor and style, for being craft beer artists. These are brands that aren't standing still. These are beers that Ohio craft beer drinkers are looking for. At 17th Star, we're about giving the Ohio craft beer drinker what they crave … quality brands,up-and-coming brands, brands that are leading the revolution, from right here in Ohio and beyond.
