MODESTO, Calif., Sept. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- As the Minnesota Vikings kick off their home opener, adult fans will once again have a smooth selection at Mall of America Field bars. Today, New Amsterdam Spirits announces the continuation of its sponsorship of the Minnesota Vikings.

"We are delighted to further our partnership with the Minnesota Vikings and bring their fans the best in-stadium experience," said Gerard Thoukis, Senior Director of Marketing for New Amsterdam Spirits. "The past year was successful for both New Amsterdam and the Vikings, and we look forward to being Vikings fans' winning choice this season."
