Deschutes chief executive officer Peter Skrbek announced the change in a notice to distributors sent on July 1, Craft Business Daily reports.

The collaboration includes Kirkland Signature Helles Lager and Kirkland Signature Vintage Ale, which are expected to be gone from most Costco warehouse’s shelves by September or October.

Recent Russian shelling destroys Ukrainian wine warehouse
On the night of July 2, a Russian strike on Kyiv destroyed the central warehouse of the OKWINE wine store chain and the distributor Wine Hunters.
