The Western Collegiate Hockey Association announced on Wednesday the addition of Bent Paddle Brewing Co. as the Official Craft Brewery of the 2025 Kwik Trip WCHA Final Faceoff. Bent Paddle Brewing Co. is a 30-barrel production craft brewery and taproom located in Duluth’s Lincoln Park Craft District.
Bent Paddle will help with promotional efforts for the upcoming 2025 Kwik Trip WCHA Final Faceoff, held from March 7-8 at AMOSIL Arena hosted by the University of Minnesota, Duluth. The brewery will offer a taproom exclusive Black IPA named the “Breakaway Black IPA” in honor of the tournament the week leading up to the event and over the event weekend itself.
“Personally, I am ecstatic to partner with Bent Paddle because it encapsulates all my favorite things: women’s hockey, craft beers, and women-owned businesses,” said WCHA Commissioner Michelle McAteer. “Fans attending the 2025 Kwik Trip Final Faceoff in Duluth should make a point to visit our official craft brewery partner and cheers their team!”
“We are thrilled to be partnering with the WCHA on the 2025 Kwik Trip WCHA Final Faceoff taking place at AMSOIL Arena. As a VERY amateur womens’ hockey player myself, I can’t wait to celebrate all things women’s ice hockey in Duluth the first weekend in March with a “Breakaway Black IPA” in our taproom or another Bent Paddle beer offering at the games themselves at the DECC’s Amsoil Arena!” says Bent Paddle Brewing Co. co-founder Laura Mullen.
