Southern Distilling Co. of Statesville, North Carolina, recently announced a multi-year partnership agreement with the Carolina Panthers. The makers of Southern Star bourbons and Hunting Creek rye, Southern Distilling Co. is now an official partner of the Charlotte-based NFL team.
“I grew up here in North Carolina and I’m proud to call it home,” said co-founder and CEO Pete Barger in a prepared statement. “Supporting the Panthers is something I’ve been doing for a long time and I’m looking forward to raising a glass of Southern Star while singing along to ‘Sweet Caroline’ after what I hope will be many wins this season!”
Fans will be able to enjoy Southern Star products while attending games at Bank of America Stadium. The partnership will extend beyond the field, too, with signature Panthers-themed cocktails served at bars and restaurants across the Carolinas.
Southern Distilling Company will also serve signature cocktails at their on-site cocktail bar and plans to host watch parties for select games throughout the season.
