SAN DIEGO \u2013 October 22, 2020<\/strong> \u2013 Coronado Brewing Company<\/u><\/a> has announced the signing of a multi-year deal with lifestyle brand Salty Crew. The partnership unites two iconic San Diego brands, whose roots both aim to connect with the water; Coronado Brewing\u2019s \u201cStay Coastal\u201d ethos aligns with Salty Crew\u2019s mission to bring people who love the water back to their core: the ocean. The two companies began with a small collaboration brew back in May of 2019 for the premier of Salty Crew\u2019s movie, \u201cSink or Swim.\u201d It was then, the two companies realized the potential for something much larger and thus, Salty Crew Blonde Ale was born. The beer, now in 12 oz can 6-packs, has since gained national attention after winning a silver medal at the Great American Beer Festival<\/u><\/a> in the Golden or Blonde Ale category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salty Crew Blonde Ale<\/u><\/a>\u00a0is an easy-drinking boat beer perfect for days spent on the water. It is brewed with a blend of two-row, wheat and pilsner malt balanced by German Hallertau and Czech Saaz hops for a touch of pleasant bitterness. Perfectly balanced and light-bodied, this dry and refreshing beer is a sessionable 4.5% ABV for maximum enjoyment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since its soft launch in 2019, Salty Crew Blond has quickly become one of Coronado\u2019s top-performing brands. \u201cWhen we first partnered with Salty Crew last year, we thought it would be cool to do something fun together as we were both big fans of each other\u2019s brands. We quickly realized that we had a hit on our hands. We developed a true friendship from working together and I think that will create a dynamic partnership for years to come,\u201d says Clinton Smith, CCO at Coronado Brewing Company. \u201cSalty Crew Blonde had a massive launch in early 2020 before the pandemic, and despite the challenges, the beer has resonated at retail and with our fans. We are very happy with this addition to our portfolio of beers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are stoked to be partnering up for the long-haul with our friends at Coronado,\u201d says Jared Lane, Co-Founder, Salty Crew. \u201cIt was important for us to work with a brewery that understands our vision and aligns with our brand. Coronado gets that we\u2019re more than just fishing or surfing\u2014we\u2019re about getting back to enjoying the water, in all its forms.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The partnership also welcomes local commercial fisherman, surfer, and all-around waterman, Lucas Dirkse, to the team as Coronado\u2019s first brand-ambassador. \u201cWhen you sit down at a restaurant in San Diego, chances are you\u2019ll find something on the menu that Coronado brewed locally and that a fisherman like myself caught locally,\u201d says Dirkse. \u201cWe\u2019re both San Diego natives providing our city with the fresh, sustainable products that make SD beer and seafood some of the best in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salty Crew Blonde will be available at Coronado\u2019s three locations as well as select markets in their distribution network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
