Eastside Distilling, Inc. EAST today announced the appointment of Owen Lingley to its board of directors. Lingley replaces Patrick Crowley. Mr. Crowley tendered his resignation after being contracted to produce a Jurassic Park series film that requires him to be based full time in London for more than a year. The board vacancy will be filled by Mr. Lingley, Chairman of Craft Canning + Bottling, a leading provider of mobile canning and bottling services in Oregon, Washington and Colorado that Eastside acquired in January 2019.

Grover Wickersham, Chairman of Eastside Distilling, commented, "We thank Pat Crowley for his many contributions to the board during this past year and are sure he will have great success with his major new responsibilities. Pat will continue to be an asset to Eastside as an informal advisor. We also welcome Owen to the Board. Owen's insights and strong leadership of Craft Canning, which is now a major part of our business, will be invaluable to Eastside shareholders."
