Second release in Athletic's limited-edition series with Netflix celebrates new 'Our Oceans' documentary

MILFORD, Conn. and SAN DIEGO, Nov. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Athletic Brewing Company, America's largest non-alcoholic brewery, today announced the second installment in its series of limited-edition collaboration brews with Netflix, one of the world's leading entertainment services.

Inspired by Netflix's new five-part documentary series Our Oceans¹, Marine Odyssey IPA celebrates the beauty and complexity of our shared seas. This limited-edition hazy IPA features a majestic mix of hops, and a delicate grain blend for a bright and refreshing drinking experience.

"We're thrilled to unveil the second release of our three-part collaboration series with Netflix," said Andrew Katz, Chief Marketing Officer of Athletic. "Just as Our Oceans uses groundbreaking technology to capture the hidden beauty of marine life, Marine Odyssey embodies the spirit of innovation and dedication to quality. We hope this release invites viewers to dive deeper into the wonder of our oceans and inspires a renewed appreciation for the natural world around us."

Marine Odyssey is now available, just in time for the debut of Our Oceans, which premiered on Netflix on Nov. 20. Marine Odyssey will be sold nationally at select retail locations across the U.S. and on athleticbrewing.com. Customers in Canada will also be able to purchase Marine Odyssey on athleticbrewing.ca.

Narrated by former President Barack Obama, Our Oceans takes viewers on a 75,000-mile cruise across and beneath the oceans, giving us unprecedented access to some of the most unexplored realms of our planet. Using cutting-edge scientific research and newly-developed underwater filmmaking technology, the series overflows with stunning action sequences, eye-popping drone footage, intimate seabed closeups, and countless never-before-seen animal behaviors. Discover the stories beneath the surface of the water in this stunning nature documentary series, which explores each of the Earth's five oceans. Watch the official trailer for Our Oceans on YouTube.

Marine Odyssey utilizes premium ingredients, including carefully selected hops and grains. The result is an aromatic wave of grapefruit, orange, and lemongrass. Each 12 oz. can of Marine Odyssey is less than 0.5% ABV and contains 60 calories, 14g of carbs, <1g of protein, and 0g of fat. It is made with Motueka, Riwaka, and Southern Passion hops, features neat notes of citrus, and is lightly sweet.

The collaboration series between Athletic Brewing and Netflix features three unique co-branded non-alcoholic beers. The first brew, released in 2023 and called Geralt's Gold, was a non-alcoholic hoppy helles inspired by the hit fantasy drama The Witcher² and the show's legendary anti-hero – Geralt of Rivia. Athletic and Netflix plan to release a third and final brew and more details will be shared at a later date.
