For the first time ever PHX B**r Co. will have its b**rs sold outside of Arizona as b**r enthusiasts in Southern Nevada can now find Scorpion Venom West Coast IPA and Imperial IPA at select Vons and Albertsons in the greater Las Vegas area.

The desert inspired craft b**rs have loyal followers outside of Arizona and the regional expansion is in response to customer demand.

"Expanding beyond Arizona is a huge accomplishment for our team, and with the proximity of Las Vegas, it was a natural next step," said Shawn Weller, VP of Sales and Chains for Zonafide Beverages. "We've had craft b**r fans asking for our b**r in Nevada for a long time and are thrilled to be able to finally bring our b**r to their backyard. Partnering with Vons and Albertsons allows us to not only bring Scorpion Venom right to their neighborhood shelves, but gives us the foundation to bring more great tasting b**r to them in the near future as well.”
