The Illinois PGA Foundation and Geneva-based Penrose Brewing Co. are raising a glass to a new three-year partnership that brings together two Illinois favorites: golf and craft beer.
This exciting collaboration connects the state’s golf community with one of Illinois’ most innovative breweries—all while giving back. Penrose Brewing Co. will rebrand three of its popular beverages to feature the Illinois PGA Foundation logo, officially designating them as the Official Beer and Seltzer of the Illinois PGA Foundation and Illinois PGA Section. Even better, a portion of every sale will directly support the Foundation’s mission-driven programs.
Meet the Lineup
Looper IPA
A crisp and crushable modern IPA brewed with vibrant, fruit-forward Alora™ hops. With notes of peach, apricot, sweet melon, and yuzu, Looper is a playful nod to golf caddies, the twists of the Penrose Triangle, and a certain mischievous gopher. Crafted for the course or any occasion, Looper keeps the good times rolling—round after round.
Transfusion Seltz-Up
A refreshing, cocktail-inspired hard seltzer infused with grape, ginger, and lime. Made with real grape ingredients, this effervescent blend captures the essence of the classic Transfusion cocktail and brings a sophisticated, fruity twist perfect for on-course refreshment.
Lemon Tea-Up
A half-and-half–inspired hard seltzer offering a nostalgic take on the classic lemon shake-up. Crafted with house-made hard seltzer and pureed lemons, this award-winning beverage (2024 U.S. Open Hard Seltzer Championship Gold Medal) delivers a bright, invigorating flavor reminiscent of warm weather and county fair days.
From the first tee to the final putt, this partnership is all about community, camaraderie and giving back. Cheers to great golf, great craft beverages, and a great cause.
Available This March
Beer and hard seltzers will be available beginning in early March—just in time for the season ahead.
