Tempe, Arizona’s Huss Brewing has been pumping out the iconic Papago Orange Blossom citrus wheat beer for two decades now. Sounds like a good time to throw a party.
“We’re beyond excited to toast 20 years of Papago Orange Blossom,” said Shawn Weller, Director of Sales and Marketing at Huss Brewing Co. “This anniversary isn’t just about the beer; it’s about the community behind it. We’re celebrating the local businesses, loyal fans, and unforgettable memories that made Orange Blossom a staple of Arizona beer culture.”
So this won’t be any old party. No. This celebration will have some class and style, befitting a distinguished legacy beer. Huss Brewing Co. is teaming up with Capri Car to launch a VIP Giveaway + Bar Hop Experience that brings the celebration to craft beer fans across the Valley.
Be an Orange Blossom VIP
Running from May 26 to June 23, 2025, the “Scan. Sip. Ride.” campaign invites fans to enter to win an exclusive spot on the Papago Orange Blossom Capri Car VIP Ride, which culminates on Friday, June 27, also known as National Orange Blossom Day.
To enter, guests simply scan the QR codes found on promotional materials at participating locations. Winners will be announced on June 23 and must claim within 24 hours, or alternate winners will be selected.
VIP Bat Hop winners get …
Three lucky winners (plus a guest each) will be treated to a VIP experience complete with complimentary Huss Brewing beers and food at every stop, swag bags featuring limited-edition Orange Blossom and Capri Car merchandise, and exclusive transportation aboard the branded Capri Car.
R.T. O’Sullivans will serve as the official kickoff location, with Huss Brewing covering the first round of drinks for 8 guests (including winners and VIPs) at each stop.
What we like about it
The elevated bar hop is just a real fun idea. Exclusivity. Then you add in the contest that runs over a long period of time. Engagement. Reminds me of when I sold enough magazines in grade school to earn a limo lunch trip to McDonald’s. But like, way cooler and with beer, obvs. Lastly, I like the tie in with National Orange Blossom Day. We’re keeping the focus / promotion on this legacy brand, without going overboard on the connection to citrus and oranges, so that the prize itself has broad appeal.
