Yuengling Brewery and University of Kentucky Partner Up

D.G. Yuengling & Son, Inc., America’s Oldest Brewery®, is partnering up with the University of Kentucky Athletics They will be serving as the official craft beer at all of the University of Kentucky Wildcats’ home games and sporting events.

The partnership is a multi year partnership that will run through numerous sports seasons. Starting with the 2023 NCAA football season for the University of Kentucky Wildcats.

The deal is quite a boon for the Pennsylvania brewery. The partnership includes Kentucky Wildcat Athletics logo rights for advertising and promotional purposes, multiple game day radio spots, printed yearbook and digital playbook inclusion, tickets and hospitality for Kentucky Wildcats games, and marketing rights throughout Wildcats full catalogue of sporting events and seasons.

Yuengling is excited to become a proud sponsor of the University of Kentucky Athletics. We began distributing in Kentucky in 2018 and have established a loyal consumer following. We are eager to connect with fans of a storied university and athletic program like Kentucky Athletics, both in-game and at home, and introduce even more consumers to the Oldest Brewery in America.

Consumers will also be able to find retail promotions featuring: The University of Kentucky Athletics signage in their favorite stores, bars, and restaurants.

Responsible Drinking

Responsible drinking and college students can be a fraught endeavor, but Yuengling Brewing as well as the Athletics Department, the Educational Board, and the University of Kentucky as a whole are standing behind this partnership, and also working with maintaining responsible drinking with their students – as well as legal drinking for the students; with watchful eyes on those under 21.

The flagship Yuengling Lager as well as their FLIGHT beer will be on hand at all of these sporting events. FLIGHT makes for a great light, low ABV, and easy to drink alternative for the students who might be drinking too much or are not experienced drinkers.

Yuengling Partnerships with College Athletics

This isn’t the first partnership with colleges and collegiate athletic endeavors for Yuengling Brewery. They also have partnerships with the University of South Florida, the University of Central Florida, Western Kentucky University, Rice, Georgia State, and Coastal Carolina.

We are working on a massive project here at The Beer Thrillers. We are creating a map of all of the breweries across the United States. State by state we are adding maps of all of the different states with every brewery in each state. (We will eventually get to the US Territories, as well as the Canadian Provinces, and possibly more countries; as well as doing some fun maps like a map of all the breweries we’ve been to, and other fun maps.) You can find the brewery maps here:

We are also working on a project of creating printable and downloadable PDFs and resources to be able to check and keep track of all of the breweries you’ve been to. So stay tuned for that project once we are finished with the Brewery Maps of the US States.
