SweetWater Brewing Teams Up With ENO To Co-Brand DoubleNest Hammock

The palatial nest features both SweetWater’s and ENO’s logo, and comes with an attached compression stuff sack for easy packing and transport. The bright color combination of Emerald, Sunshine Yellow and Light Navy was picked to remind hammockers of their favorite Sweetwater brews; 420, IPA, and BLUE.

Although hammocks and breweries aren’t a traditional pairing, Doug Wright, SweetWater’s Director of Retail Merchandise, believes it to be a natural fit and hopes the hammock’s creation spurs on some customer overlap.

“Prior to joining the SweetWater Brewing Co. team, I spent eight years in the outdoor industry where I was fortunate enough to engage with some of the world’s best outdoor gear brands such as ENO,” said SweetWater’s Director of Retail Merchandise Doug Wright. “Given SweetWater’s love for the outdoors and my experience in that industry, it was an organic fit for us to feature ENO’s products in our line and move forward in developing a collaborative relationship with them. Here at SweetWater, our mantra ‘Don’t float the mainstream’ flows well with ENO’s ‘relax’ creed, and ultimately it’s our hope that consumers take a moment to unwind in their ENO hammock while enjoying one of our fresh and tasty SweetWater brews!”

Founded in 1997, Sweetwater Brewing has garnered national attention for their hoppy, aggressive ales that reflect the Atlanta-based company’s mantra: “Don’t Float the Mainstream.” A collection of brews including 420, BLUE, and IPA, are available year-round, while beers from the “Dank Tank” and “Catch n’ Release” series are available on a limited time basis.

“Beer and hammocks go hand in hand – the combination evokes a sense of relaxation, simplicity, and good times that can’t be beat,” says Natalie DeRatt, Media and Marketing Manager for ENO. “We were thrilled to have the chance to be a part of this fun and original collaboration with Sweetwater Brewing and hope to have many more collaborative opportunities in the future.”

The Sweetwater DoubleNest Hammock is now available for purchase on the Sweetwater Brewing Company’s website, http://www.SweetWaterbrew.com.
