Introduced as an extension of the wildly popular Oberon Ale, Bell’s invites consumers to embrace the season, no matter the season–extending the brand beyond the summer months and into the ‘Ober-off’ season.
“There’s nothing Bell’s fans anticipate more than Oberon season, which is traditionally from March to September. But as Midwesterners, we know the fun doesn’t have to end just because it isn’t 70 and sunny.Oberon Eclipse is our way of embracing those longer nights and colder temperatures”said Scott Powell,Director of Marketing for Bell’s Brewery.“Whether it’s using a snowbank as a beer cooler or enjoying a campfire under the stars, Eclipse invites drinkers to welcome the change in seasons with open arms—and an Oberon Eclipse in hand.”
“Fans have been demanding year-round Oberon for years now, so we love when we get a chance to give our fans–and our business partners–something they’ve been asking for” said Carrie Yunker, Executive Vice President of Bell’s Brewery.“Oberon continues to be a top-performer here in the Midwest, and our retailer and distributor partners rely on that seasonal release.As we close in on national distribution this year, it’s vital that we continue to provide retailers and distributors with demand-driving products year-round.”
In spirit of the new launch, Bell’s Eccentric Café is hosting an Oberon Eclipse release event in the Beer Garden and Back Room on Saturday, November 4th, in celebration of Daylight Savings Time and the opportunity to enjoy an extra hour at your favorite bar.
“A lot of people think the time change signals an end to their days of summer fun,” Yunker said. “And,while it’s true Summer is behind us,we instead want to encourage fans that it’s all about perspective.With Oberon Eclipse, we’re excited to be able to offer fans an Oberon that now fits perfectly with the season.”
