Coors Light to Transform the Tampa Bay Lightning's Melted Championship Ice into Beer

Coors Light Creates Beer from Tampa Bay Lightning's Stanley Cup Final Ice

The Tampa Bay Lightning has made history yet again, not just by winning their second consecutive NHL championship in the Stanley Cup Final, but also by providing the key ingredient for a unique beer.

Coors Light, the official beer sponsor of the Tampa Bay Lightning, is creating a special brew called Coors Light Champions Ice. This beer is set to be the first of its kind, produced using ice from the Stanley Cup Final. The ice was transported all the way from the Amalie Arena in Tampa Bay to the brewery in Golden, Colo.

The ice collection process was carried out after the game, with the ice being scraped and collected from the arena. The agency DDB has been instrumental in helping Coors Light with this innovative project.

Anheuser-Busch, the manufacturer of Coors Light Champions Ice, will be using the ice from the Tampa Bay Lightning's Stanley Cup Final victory to create the beer. The beer is linked to the team's championship victory and is a testament to their unwavering spirit.

It's important to note that Coors Light Champions Ice is not made with any blood, sweat, or tears. The beer is a celebration of the Tampa Bay Lightning's success, not a commemoration of the hardships they may have faced during the series.

The Tampa Bay city, known for its warm climate, has a colder condition than the Rockies, specifically its ice rink, which made it possible to transport and use the ice for the beer production.

The Tampa Bay Lightning, associated with the National Hockey League (NHL), has once again proven their prowess on the ice, both on and off the field. The Coors Light Champions Ice is not just a beer; it's a symbol of their unyielding determination and the spirit of victory.
