As part of the partnership, SweetWater is also the presenting sponsor and official beer partner of the ATLive concert series and the Summer Movie Experience at the Home Depot Backyard adjacent to Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

“This is another exciting new partnership as we continue our coast-to-coast expansion and serve our great beer to sports fans across the country,” said Ty Gilmore, President, U.S. Beer, at Tilray Brands, SweetWater’s parent company. “SweetWater has deep roots in Atlanta, and serving our beer at the city’s premiere entertainment destination is one of the exciting new ways we’re engaging with the community. We’re thrilled for more of Atlanta’s football and soccer fans, as well as the community at large, to sip their favorite SweetWater beers while taking in the fun at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.”
