- Fourteen Lansing-area
Rite Aid
locations now offer local flagship beers from brewery in the heart of the
Stadium District
Rite Aid Corporation
(OTC: RADCQ) today announced an exciting new collaboration with
Lansing Brewing Company
, bringing a taste of local craft brews to its Lansing-area stores. Effective immediately,
Rite Aid
customers can now conveniently pick up two distinct and flavorful beer offerings from
Lansing Brewing Company
at select Lansing-area
Rite Aid
stores.
Lansing Brewing Company
is renowned for its great beer, delicious food and incredible experience in the heart of Lansing’s
Stadium District
. By partnering with
Rite Aid
, the brewery is expanding its reach and making its exceptional beers more accessible to the community.
Rite Aid
continues to prioritize its investment in the Lansing community by engaging in local partnerships, supporting regional businesses, and offering customers unique and diverse options.
The two
Lansing Brewing Company
beer varieties now available at select Lansing-area
Rite Aid
stores include:
Amber Cream Ale
– A modern remake of the original LBC flagship beer from 1898,
Amber Cream
is a beautiful blend of two classic beer styles. Subtle notes of malty caramel sweetness coupled with a creamy body make this beer light, refreshing, and truly easy to drink and appealing to beer drinkers across the spectrum.
Northern Escape IPA – Waves of citrus and pine dominate the nose with a hint of malt character. A subtle sweet biscuit/bready quality harmonizes with the bright hop flavors and a slightly dry finish.
A third variety, Sitting Lakeside, will be offered starting in February. Sitting Lakeside is Lansing Brewing Company’s new flagship lager and is the perfect accompaniment to any occasion. Light, crisp, and refreshing enough for the warm summer days, but with enough malt character and a subtle sweetness that is welcome on the coldest winter days, Sitting Lakeside is the perfect “go-to” lager.
"We are excited to bring Lansing Brewing Company’s local favorites to our shelves," said
Alessandra Mian
, Division Vice President at
Rite Aid
. "This partnership aligns with our commitment to offering a diverse and high-quality selection to our customers at the convenience they expect. We believe these unique and flavorful brews will resonate with our community and enhance the overall shopping experience."

Lansing
area in a setting that’s convenient to them.”
