News from Richard Brashier,
Former President, The BeerGas Company:

As the former president of The BeerGas Company and now general manager of the Airgas Southwest beverage CO2 business, I’d like to welcome you to the Airgas family. I am writing to let you know about the expanded services and products now available to you through our acquisition by Airgas.

Airgas is the largest U.S. distributor of industrial, medical and specialty gases, and a leading producer of CO2. With more than 1,100 locations, Airgas has built the largest national distribution network in the country. What that means for you, our customer, is service you can count on — at competitive rates — no matter where you are located.

Our staff from The BeerGas Company are all now a part of Airgas Southwest. We’re adding more personnel, more vehicles, and more training to provide even better service than before. Our goal is to continue partnering with each of our customers in the food service, hospitality, sports and entertainment industries. We want to make sure that each pour from your taps and soda fountains yields the maximum profit. We will continue to prove that we offer unrivaled service and an extensive knowledge of beer, beer gases, and beer and beverage systems.

Airgas’ range of services is designed to help each and every customer realize increased profits from their bar, restaurant, or venue. If you currently purchase your beverage gases from more than one source, I invite you to consider combining all your gas purchases with one supplier — Airgas. We provide a comprehensive array of beverage-dispensing products and services, including:

• Beverage quality CO2 (bulk CO2 and cylinder packs)
• Draft beer systems installation and maintenance
• Nitrogen
• Helium
• Brew-specific gas blends
• Draft system upgrades

Thank you for your loyalty. We look forward to continuing as a valued partner in your success. Please call me or your local Airgas representative if you have questions or if we can assist you in any way.
