LOS ANGELES, Feb. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Drinks Americas (OTC: DKAM; "Drinks Americas" or the "Company"), the exclusive United States broker for leading premium authentic Mexican beers currently present in over 32 states, today announced that three big chain retailers in South Carolina are now carrying the Company's exclusive premium authentic Mexican Day of the Dead Craft Beer: Retail-giant Total Wine, Greens Discount Beverage and Frugal MacDoogal.

Total Wine was founded by two brothers in 1991, and offers around 2,500 different types of beer ranging from America's most well-known beers to hard-to-find microbrews and imports.  Nationwide, the Company is operating 100 retail stores across 15 states and expanding rapidly.

Greens Discount Beverage history dates back to 1937 with the opening of 'Green's Package Store' in midtown Atlanta and has since expanded to four locations in South Carolina. Greens remain a small, family owned and operated business with employees that have been associates for 40 years and are treated like extended family.

Frugal McDoogal is known to be Carolina's first and largest wine and beverage warehouse celebrating 20 years in the business. They are dedicated to providing the best prices on liquor and liqueurs and the best selection and prices on wine.

"Known as the state's largest wine and spirits retailers, these are all ideal and major POS for any winery, brewery or brand. We are extremely pleased and honored to have our authentic premium Mexican Day of the Dead Craft Beer line included among each of their expansive arrays of beers offered throughout their locations in South Carolina and are eager to see how sales do in the time ahead," stated Joseph Belli, VP of Sales for Day of the Dead Craft Beer.

Timothy Owens, CEO of Drinks Americas, commented, "These large chain retailers offer their diverse customer base a vast and astounding selection of quality products, and we're thrilled be included among their offering. We couldn't be more thrilled to work with independent retailers of this caliber. Having our craft beer brands in these highly trafficked large South Carolina retail locations afford us with a valuable opportunity to grow sales and increase brand awareness in this market."
