Seven new Directors have officially joined the Beer Store Board of Directors, as ownership in the Beer Store continues to grow among Ontario-based brewers. Four new independent Directors were formally appointed to the Beer Store Board of Directors at a shareholders Annual General Meeting (AGM) meeting held this week, after being selected through an independent search process in Q4 2015.

"We are delighted to welcome these new Directors as we implement our new open ownership model. This change to our governance builds on our support for small brewers with increased free listings near their breweries and reduced fees at other locations,"
said Charlie Angelakos, Chair of the Board of Directors of the Beer Store.

The four new Independent Directors are:
