Oregon’s legendary Rogue Ales & Spirits, one of the oldest craft breweries in Oregon and also a full- fledged distillery, is expanding its pre- packaged offerings to include a sparkling canned cocktail line and variety 12 pack. Gluten free and ready to drink, this line of beverages is made with Rogue Spirits and 100% natural ingredients.
Steven Garret, VP of Business Development, says the decision to offer pre- made cocktails in a can makes sense for a combination brewery/distillery such as Rogue.
“Canned cocktails are a natural extension for our brand because we were already making award-winning spirits and have a lot of experience canning beer,” says Garrett. “For us, it was all about making high-quality cocktails using Rogue Spirits as the base. Our four canned cocktail flavors are inspired by the most popular cocktails at our Rogue pubs.”
Hagen Moore, Rogue VP of Marketing and
Creative, says the new canned cocktails are great for the current lockdown
situation faced by so many.
“These drinks were crafted for life on-the go, but they are also the perfect
beverage for sheltering in place,” adds Moore. “Want a bar-quality cocktail
without going to the bar? Crack open one of our canned cocktails for a
delicious drink in a matter of seconds.”
