The San Diego Padres are now offering a new adult beverage at Petco Park, the Sunset Slam Mango Lime hard kombucha.
Made locally by NOVA, it is 8% alcohol-by-volume (ABV) and has a flavor profile of mango and lime. It is gluten free and vegan and is sold in both draft and in 16-oz cans at multiple locations within the ballpark: on tap in Gallagher Square and within the Craft Beers of San Diego area on the main concourse behind home plate, in cans at Seaside Market on the first base side of the main concourse and at craft grab-and go coolers throughout the ballpark.
The cans feature the colors of the Padres’ City Connect uniforms.
Before games, the Padres House Band will perform at the “Saturday Pregame Live Music, presented by NOVA Kombucha” on the Sycuan Stage at each of the Padres’ 13 Saturday home games in the newly renovated Gallagher Square.
“The best nights in San Diego are at the ballpark cheering on our hometown Padres,” said NOVA Founder Tiago Carneiro. “There is no more electrifying atmosphere in town, and we are proud to have such a significant presence at such a significant community gathering point. We are passionate about supporting San Diego sports, and we look forward to many memorable nights with the Padres and great kombucha.”
Additionally, Sunset Slam Mango Lime is sold at NOVA’s Ocean Beach taproom as well as its sister NOVO sports pubs in Mission Valley, Otay Ranch and Imperial Beach. Official viewing parties for Padres road games will be held at NOVO sports pubs with dates for the 2024 season to be announced in the coming weeks.
Beginning April 1, the kombucha will be available in single 16-oz cans and in six packs of 12-oz cans at retail outlets throughout San Diego County (store locator).
NOVA is the Official Hard Kombucha of San Diego Wave Fútbol Club (with La Ola Dragon Fruit Kombucha collaboration) and the Official Hard Kombucha of Snapdragon Stadium.
