Richmond Kickers News Release


RICHMOND, VA - (Tuesday, January 28, 2014) - The Richmond Kickers, in conjunction with Loveland Distributing, are pleased to announce that a partnership with Wild Wolf Brewing Company will craft a limited edition Kickers-specific beer for the 2014 season.

The specialty craft beer will be a distinctive, one-of-a-kind blend, crafted specifically for Richmond Kickers fans. The limited edition beer will be exclusively available during Kickers 2014 home games and will also be featured at participating Kickers official bar partners.

"We are very excited to be partnering with the Richmond Kickers on this beer," said Mary Wolf, Wild Wolf Brewing Company. "It is a great opportunity to create a special beer for the players and the fans - something everyone will enjoy and appreciate. Collaboration beers are a lot of fun; they provide an opportunity for everyone to come together and participate on the end product, creating a memorable experience for all!"

The Kickers-specific beer will be created through the collaborative creativity of brewers, members of the media and Kickers fans, who will visit Wild Wolf Brewing Company in Nelson County, Virginia on January 30. Attendees will enjoy lunch and an exclusive, private day at the brewery where they will get a behind the scenes tour of Wild Wolf Brewery, meet the brewers, participate in brewing and take part in naming the specialty beer.

"As we build on our successes from last season, we are thrilled to partner with Loveland and Wild Wolf Brewing Company to create a product that is truly unique to RVA and the Richmond Kickers," commented Hunter Leemon, Richmond Kickers Director of Sales. "Thursday's VIP visit to the brewery will no doubt be an enjoyable experience for everyone involved and we look forward to making a beer that all soccer lovers throughout the city can enjoy."
