Mohegan Sun places bet on Two Roads Brewing as official craft beer

The famed Connecticut casino & resort, the Mohegan Sun named Two Roads Brewing Co. its official craft beer partner this week.

“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.

To mark the occasion, Two Roads developed a new beer in collaboration with the casino, Jackpot Juice Hazy IPA, which represents everything fans love about both brands: fun, flavor, and enjoyment.

“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,” Hamilton said.

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.”

Jackpot Juice Hazy IPA is now available on draft at Mohegan Sun throughout the property, from the gaming floor to Mohegan Sun FanDuel Sportsbook, Mohegan Sun Arena and at the newly renovated Sun Patio Bar located at the Summer Entrance.

Jackpot Juice Hazy IPA will also be offered at bars and restaurants throughout CT. In May, the new beer will also 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.

The new beer 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.
