American Rebel Beer is currently offered in six states (Connecticut, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Ohio, and Tennessee), with additional states being announced soon.

Testing was probably the best that I could have asked for. We have four guys doing different positions this year with one new guy added to the team. Rolling into it, you’re not quite sure what to expect with a new crew chief. It was nothing short of amazing how well it went. We qualified number two and weren’t able to move past round one, but we did have a really great test session this week. We didn’t hurt a lot of parts and pieces and made it down the racetrack, so we’re really excited about the Gainesville race coming up.”
