From Brewery to Bar: How Our Fresh Sheet Keeps You Ahead of the Curve

In Seattle’s fast-moving craft-beer world, staying ahead of the latest releases, trends and inventory shifts is essential. As your partner in craft-beer distribution, River Barrel Distributing offers a strategic tool created just for this – the Fresh Sheet. Our real-time beer-and-beverage inventory list, updated each Monday, simplifies and supercharges the way bars and retailers manage their taps, helping you deliver the freshest selections and drive repeat business.

What Is the Fresh Sheet?

The Fresh Sheet is a curated, up-to-date digital inventory list across River Barrel’s craft portfolio, published weekly to keep you in the loop. Whether you’re looking for seasonal craft releases, limited-edition small batches, or trusted staples, the Fresh Sheet delivers:

• Brewery name and location

• Beer style, ABV and package format

• Pricing, availability and special promos

• Easy PDF view or direct-ordering via DSD Link

With everything organized in one place and updated every Monday, bar managers and retail buyers save valuable time—no more manual stock checks or waiting for sporadic updates. You get instant visibility into what’s new, available and moving fast.

Why the Fresh Sheet Matters

The craft-beer scene evolves overnight—and falling behind means missing opportunities and losing ground to competitors. With our Fresh Sheet you can:

• Stay on top of new releases before they sell out

• Plan seasonal menus and tap take-overs aligned with trending brews

• Access exclusive deals and limited-availability offerings

• Optimize inventory management with Monday-fresh updates and direct order links

When your beer list is advanced, curated and current, you attract new customers, retain loyal ones and elevate your beer program.
