Athletic Brewing Company Named An Official Partner of the San Francisco Giants Multi-year partnership brings award-winning non-alcoholic beer to Oracle Park

MILFORD, Conn. and SAN DIEGO, March 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Athletic Brewing Company, America's largest dedicated non-alcoholic brewer, today announced it has been named An Official Partner of the San Francisco Giants, forming a new multi-year agreement with one of professional baseball's most storied franchises.

Beginning March 25, the sponsorship brings together two organizations committed to elevating the modern fan experience. As fans increasingly look for great-tasting non-alcoholic beer at live events and the category continues its rapid growth in the U.S., this sponsorship reflects the rising demand for Athletic at major sports venues like Oracle Park.

"We're thrilled to team up with an iconic organization like the San Francisco Giants and proud to help lead the continued shift toward mindful drinking," said Andrew Katz, Chief Marketing Officer of Athletic Brewing Company. "This partnership marks an exciting milestone in our journey to revolutionize the way the world drinks. Fans today are redefining what it means to enjoy a day at the ballpark, and together with the Giants, we're making modern moderation more accessible for beer lovers everywhere."

As part of the agreement, fans will be able to enjoy 19.2 oz. cans of Run Wild IPA and Upside Dawn Golden throughout Oracle Park. Athletic Brewing will also be prominently featured around the ballpark, including home dugout branding and LED displays along each baseline, as well as broadcast features, digital and social integrations, and in-stadium activations throughout the season.

"The Giants remain committed to providing fans with 'nothing like it' experiences at Oracle Park," said Steve Tseng, Senior Vice President, Partnerships of the Giants. "Partnering with Athletic allows us to continue expanding our ballpark offerings, reflecting the ever-evolving guest preferences and meeting the needs of our diverse fanbase."

Throughout the 2026 season and beyond, Oracle Park go-ers will see Athletic featured throughout the ballpark and during game broadcasts, with opportunities to sample and experience the brand's award-winning flavor firsthand.

With its latest sponsorship, Athletic further reinforces its leadership in bringing award-winning NA beer to more spectators and more moments across the sports and entertainment landscape. Athletic is already served at more than 200 venues nationwide, and the company maintains major partnerships across professional soccer, lacrosse, hockey, college athletics, endurance events, outdoor sports, and live music.

Founded by Bill Shufelt and John Walker, Athletic produces upwards of 50 NA brews annually and is the most highly awarded non-alcoholic brewer of the past decade, with 190 prestigious taste awards. Athletic is the best-selling NA craft beer brand in the U.S., with over 50% market share — outselling the next 100 NA craft brands combined and leading its next closest competitor by 44 share points 1.
