The sponsorship agreement was secured by IU Athletics multimedia rightsholder LEARFIELD.

“Bloomington is home for Upland, and IU students and staff were some of our first-ever customers,” said Eddie DeSalle, Upland Brewing Company president. “As a graduate of Indiana University myself, and knowing how many of our team members are as well, this is a meaningful partnership with a very special organization. Drinking beer is a natural part of the sports-watching experience. We want IU’s elite fan-base to be able to enjoy exemplary beer on game day, and we’re proud to be the ones to provide it.”

This is the first collegiate sponsorship deal Upland Brewing Company has had with Indiana University.

”Upland Brewing Company is not only a great local Bloomington-based company, but it has been a wonderful partner to our department since we introduced beer sales at IU Football games in 2019,” said IU Vice President and Director of Athletics Scott Dolson. “Upland has always offered an outstanding product and I am particularly excited about this partnership and what it means for our department and our fans.”
