Two Roads Brewing Co. Teams Up with Mohegan Sun As The Official Craft Beer Partner; Plans Center Around Collaboration Brew Jackpot Juice Hazy IPA

Now available on draft at Mohegan Sun, and soon at retail, the “Juice”  kicks off a summer-long partnership among two Connecticut icons

Two Connecticut icons – Two Roads Brewing Co. and Mohegan Sun announced today a new partnership driven by fun and flavor. To celebrate Two Roads’ status as Mohegan Sun’s official craft beer partner, the brewer developed a new beer in collaboration with the famed casino: Jackpot Juice Hazy IPA.

Jackpot Juice Hazy IPA represents everything fans love about both brands: fun, flavor, and  enjoyment. At 5.8% ABV and offering bright citrus notes balanced by tropical hop character, Jackpot Juice Hazy IPA is the perfect complement to good times to be had at Mohegan Sun – and beyond.

“We’ve always been about taking the road less traveled, so combining our sense of adventure with Mohegan Sun’s playful energy was just a natural fit,” said Brad Hittle, co-founder and CEO of Two Roads Brewing Co. “For the first time ever, a collaboration beer was developed by our brewers and the team at Mohegan Sun, and they hit the jackpot with a beer that delivers full-on flavor.”

“We’re very excited to about this partnership with Two Roads Brewing Co., which is one of the most popular and successful brewing companies in the country,” said Jeff Hamilton, President & General Manager at Mohegan Sun. “Jackpot Juice is the perfect addition to Mohegan Sun’s beverage portfolio, and this delicious, refreshing Hazy IPA is arriving just in time for guests to enjoy all summer long.”

In addition to retailers throughout Two Roads’ footprint, Jackpot Juice Hazy IPA is now available on draft throughout the property, from the gaming floor to Mohegan Sun FanDuel Sportsbook and Mohegan Sun Arena.  Guests can also purchase 16 oz. cans of Jackpot Juice at the newly renovated Sun Patio Bar for $10 during the Summer Kick-Off on Saturday, May 27th. Jackpot Juice will appear in Two Roads’ surging IPA Variety Pack, which will be available throughout summer at retailers within the brewery’s distribution footprint, for a suggested retail price of $18.99.

Jackpot Juice is just the beginning of what will be a months-long effort to provide the ultimate summer-in-New England experience, including a sweepstakes for one winner to enjoy a VIP experience at Mohegan Sun, supported through signage at those retailers carrying the new variety pack.
