Philadelphia Union today announced a new three-year partnership with Copper Bonnet Distillery, naming the veteran- and woman-owned Pennsylvania company the Official Gin Canned Cocktail and the Preferred Gin of the Philadelphia Union. As part of the agreement, Copper Bonnet’s premium gin-based canned cocktails and flagship gin will be available throughout Subaru Park. The partnership also includes in-stadium branding, gameday integrations, and designation as the presenting partner of the Union’s military-focused activations.

Copper Bonnet Distillery is committed to ocean conservation and sustainability, crafting its canned cocktails using its flagship gin, which uses sugar kelp and coastal botanicals to support marine preservation efforts. The company also actively supports the veteran community, partnering with Force Blue, which deploys retired special operations divers on conservation missions around the world. 

“We’re excited to announce our new partnership with Copper Bonnet Distillery,” said Charlie Slonaker, Chief Revenue Officer, Philadelphia Union. “Their commitment to sustainability and responsible production aligns with our efforts to reduce our environmental impact, while their support of veterans and community initiatives reflects the values we strive for as a club.”

"We’re proud to announce our partnership with The Philadelphia Union - a club that stands for far more than elite competition on the pitch,” said Tara Lawver, Copper Bonnet Distillery, Co-founder & CEO. “Through meaningful community engagement, a genuine commitment to sustainability, and the disciplined pursuit of a championship-caliber team, the Philadelphia Union embody values we respect and confidently stand behind. We’re honored to march alongside them into the 2026 season and look forward to the energy and atmosphere at Subaru Park all year long."

Stadium visibility will include signage at the Primepoint Club Bar, videoboard features, and branded beverage carts throughout the concourse. Copper Bonnet products will be available for purchase throughout Subaru Park. 

In addition, Copper Bonnet Distillery will serve as the presenting sponsor of Battle of the Branches and a sponsor of Army-Navy Cup XV.
