Suisse Imports, a California-based importer and distributor of premium European beer, has expanded its footprint across Southern California, bringing high-quality Swiss brews to chain stores and independent retailers. The company partners with Rugenbräu and Simmentaler breweries — two Swiss Alpine breweries with deep heritage and exceptional quality — to introduce Swiss beer to a growing U.S. audience.
Products now available include:
- Rugenbräu Zwickel – a smooth, unfiltered lager
-
Rugenbräu Harder – a bold, full-bodied alpine beer
-
Simmentaler Mountain Pale Ale – crisp, hoppy, and floral
-
Simmentaler Märzen – a classic amber beer brewed for year-round enjoyment
In addition to its Swiss lineup, Suisse Imports also offers premium international beers including:
- Oslo – modern, Nordic-style beers from Norway
-
Schnitt – clean, crushable lagers from Tel Aviv
To further support its retail efforts, Suisse Imports has partnered with BeerGang, a leading craft beer delivery platform to offer fast local delivery through their online marketplace.
“This is a major step forward in our mission to bring exceptional international beer to American consumers,” said Chris Timperio, Founder of Suisse Imports. “We’re proud to represent breweries that deliver quality, character, and story in every bottle.”
The announcement follows Suisse Imports' second round of SBA funding through Working Solutions CDFI, helping accelerate its logistics, brand partnerships, and retail presence across California.
