Celebrating Kelly Pannek With A Special New Beer Release
Okay… I have to ask. When you already have a beer named after you, is it a standard practice to have another one?
If you’re Kelly Pannek from The Minnesota Frost, I guess the answer is YES!
KELLY PANNEK HONORED AGAIN THIS MARCH
Fulton Brewing is helping Minnesotans to celebrate her the best way they know how. The Brewing Company is creating a brand-new beer in honor of Kelly. It’s called: “Been There, Won That AGAIN – 2x Gold Medal Championship Shandy.”
Perfect name, right?

KELLY'S FIRST HONORING BEER
Back in 2024, Fulton dropped “Been There, Won That,” a pink beer that not only celebrated Pannek but also gave back to the 'Mosaic Hockey Collective, helping support players of color in Minnesota.

COME TO THE PARTY MARCH 9TH
Fulton Brewing is throwing a release party at their North Loop taproom on Monday, March 9, at 6:30 p.m., and Pannek will actually be there signing autographs. So yes! You can literally raise a glass with a gold medalist!
A ROUGH START BACK HOME FOR THE MINNESOTA FROST
Meanwhile, the Minnesota Frost are back in action after taking a break for the Olympics. They unfortunately lost their game 0-4 to Montreal, but fans have their back. Better now than later. It's been an exciting but exhausting few weeks with the Olympics underway, and we can't wait to see what our Minnesota Frost will bring to the table over the next few games.
HOW MANY BEERS COULD KELLY CHALK UP?
And if you’re anything like me, you’re thinking the same thing. Is there a possibility that we might need to make room for a third beer for Pannek? We'll have to wait and see. But for now, make plans to attend the party on March 9th, and celebrate the moment.
