Yuengling Unveils New Phillies Powder Blue Lager Cans, Celebrates Ongoing Partnership with Aaron Nola

America’s Oldest Brewery introduces a NEW limited-edition Lager can inspired by the Phillies’ iconic Powder Blues as its partnership with Aaron Nola continues.

POTTSVILLE, PA. (March 18, 2026) – D.G. Yuengling & Son, Inc., America’s Oldest Brewery, today announced the debut of its new Yuengling Lager × Philadelphia Phillies limited-edition cans and packaging. The release celebrates the brewery’s longstanding connection to Pennsylvania sports, its relationship with the Phillies organization, and the continuation of Yuengling’s brand ambassadorship with All-Star pitcher Aaron Nola.

Now entering another exciting season of collaboration, Yuengling and the Phillies once again join forces to honor hometown pride, team spirit, and the shared values of tradition, hard work, and unwavering loyalty. The 2026 cans feature a refreshed design that pairs Yuengling’s iconic Lager imagery with the Phillies’ throwback Liberty Bell logo, inspired by the club’s beloved Powder Blue uniforms.

For this year’s limited-edition release, Yuengling’s design team worked closely with the Phillies to create packaging that captures the unmistakable energy of baseball season in Philadelphia. The result is a dynamic, collectible Lager can that blends the brewery’s nearly 200-year heritage with the grit, excitement, and passion that define Phillies baseball, a design fans will be proud to display all season long. The new Phillies Lager can will be available in 12‑ounce and 16‑ounce varieties and in 12‑pack cartons throughout the local market, with the cans also available in the ballpark.

Continuing the Partnership with Aaron Nola

As part of the 2026 season, Yuengling proudly continues its partnership with All-Star pitcher Aaron Nola as a Yuengling brand ambassador. A respected leader on and off the field, Nola embodies the dedication, work ethic, and loyalty that align naturally with Yuengling’s nearly 200-year family legacy. Throughout the season, fans can expect exclusive digital content, and special promotions featuring Nola as he represents both the Phillies and America’s Oldest Brewery.

Founded in 1829, Yuengling’s nearly two-century legacy is deeply rooted in Pennsylvania, a lineage that mirrors the rich history of the Phillies, established in 1883. Together, the brands continue to unite generations of fans who appreciate tradition, craftsmanship, and the thrill of America’s pastime.

Yuengling Traditional Lager is the brewery’s flagship brand and proudly serves as The Official Lager of the Phillies. This collaboration builds on that foundation, offering fans a collectible design that celebrates the team they love with the beer they trust.

The 2026 Yuengling Lager × Philadelphia Phillies limited-edition cans and packaging will be available at retailers beginning March 2026 and will remain on shelves while supplies last.
