Aberdeen Football Club has inked a new partnership with Britain’s biggest craft brewer’s spirits brand, BrewDog Distilling Co., making it the club’s official gin and vodka partner for the next three years. BrewDog Distilling Co. is launching a limited-edition LoneWolf Gin and Abstrakt Vodka to celebrate the partnership - labelled as the Red Army’s Gin and Vodka for the Reds! Both made in Aberdeen, LoneWolf Gin and Abstrakt Vodka are born of place and pride - the perfect spirit for match days. The limited edition numbered bottles are part of a three-part trilogy, with one bottle of each product to be released each year for the next three years. Made for Aberdeen FC fans, gift buyers and even spirit enthusiasts, the premium bottles are a perfect collectable for many. The Scottish Cup Trophy also visited BrewDog’s DogTap Ellon bar recently, giving both fans and the local community a unique chance to celebrate Aberdeen FC and the heart of the brewery. On the new partnership, Daniel Jones, Head of Brand and Product Marketing at BrewDog Distilling Co, commented: “We’re very excited about this partnership with Aberdeen FC - our goal is to unite football pride with craft spirit innovation, and we definitely feel we have achieved this. “We wanted to bring together the local community and both football and BrewDog fans with these premium collectables, so we hope all of these audiences enjoy the bottles and the partnership as a whole.” Gary Herbert, Business Development Manager at Aberdeen FC, commented: "We are delighted to bring this exciting new collaboration with Brewdog Distilling Co. to our fans. They have a fantastic reputation for innovation and as a local company headquartered in Ellon, this partnership fits with the club's ethos to build meaningful relationships with successful local businesses. "We believe these limited-edition bottles of gin and vodka will prove hugely popular with our supporters and we look forward to working together in partnership with Brewdog Distilling Co. in the season ahead on more innovative and exciting projects."
