A Delightful Partnership: The Original Pickle Shot and Portland Pickles

Baseball games are known for their classic snacks and beverages. Nothing complements the thrilling atmosphere of a sporting event like the perfect drink. Enter The Original Pickle Shot (TOPS), a fun, innovative spirit that has recently teamed up with the Portland Pickles, the beloved collegiate wood-bat baseball team.

When your team is named the Pickles, it’s only natural to expect pickles to be involved! Starting this season, fans at Walker Stadium will be able to enjoy pickle-infused cocktails and the famous Pickle Shot at home games. Funded by this exciting sponsorship, fans aged 21 and over can indulge in a variety of pickle-flavored drinks while cheering for their local team.

A Match Made in Heaven

Laura Becraft, CEO of The Original Pickle Shot, expressed her enthusiasm for the partnership, emphasizing how well the two brands align. “It's such a perfect match,” she said. “The Original Pickle Shot and The Portland Pickles share a love for fun and celebration, making this collaboration very logical.” The Pickles are popular among their fans due to their festive reputation, and with TOPS on board, they are set to take that fun to new heights.

What to Expect at the Games

The sponsorship will be prominent throughout the ballpark. Fans can look forward to signage that celebrates the collaboration and the opportunity to sample pickle shots, thanks to designated servers roaming the stadium with pickle shot backpacks. The partnership also includes PA announcements and social media promotions, ensuring the excitement of TOPS will resonate through the vibrant atmosphere of the games.

The Portland Pickles, proud champions of the previous West Coast League season, are set to kick off their 10th anniversary season this year. Their first game against the Portland Rosebuds is scheduled for May 27, marking a significant moment for the team and its fans.

Courtney Schmidt, General Manager of the Portland Pickles, echoed the sentiments of excitement as well, stating, “We are thrilled to introduce The Original Pickle Shot to our fans. It's Dill-icious, it's fun, and now it's right at home at Walker Stadium! The original mascot, Dillon, has finally found his Pickle Shot.”

More Than Just Baseball

Fans looking to enjoy the pickle shot experience at home will also have that option. The Original Pickle Shot is available for special order purchase at licensed Oregon Liquor Cannabis Commission stores across the state. With its unique branding and delicious flavor profile, the vodka has grown to become the top-selling pickle brine-infused spirit in the United States since its launch in 2018.

TOPS utilizes a special pickle brine and premium five-times distilled corn vodka to craft its products, available in original and spicy variations. Each shot is under 40 calories, contains only 1.5 carbs, and has no sugar, gluten, or artificial colors, making it a guilt-free indulgence for pickle lovers everywhere.

The Future is Bright for Fans

As both The Original Pickle Shot and the Portland Pickles gear up for an exciting season, the partnership symbolizes a fun evolution in the way sports fans can enjoy their game-day experience. Whether you’re savoring a pickle shot at Walker Stadium or enjoying one at home, there’s no denying that the flavor of the season is bound to be dill-icious.

This collaboration is likely to inspire other teams and brands to explore playful partnerships that enhance the fan experience, but until then, Portland Pickles fans will revel in being the trendsetters of sports-related imbibing.
