Cincy Light and Truth named an Official Hometown Beer and IPA Partner of Cincinnati’s NFL team, and Rhinegeist offerings to be available at Paycor Stadium.

CINCINNATI, [July 30, 2026] — Rhinegeist is teaming up with the Cincinnati Bengals to become an Official Hometown Beer Partner. Cincy Light, an Official Hometown Beer Partner of the Cincinnati Bengals, and Rhinegeist Truth, an Official IPA Partner of the Cincinnati Bengals, will be available in special limited-edition 24- and 12-packs, respectively, to celebrate the partnership. By highlighting the two Cincinnati icons’ long-term commitments to the Queen City, this partnership adds additional local flavor (literally and figuratively) to Bengals games in the years to come.

"The journey of our brewery is about Cincinnati, because it's this community that has supported us every step of the way. Having the chance to be an Official Hometown Beer Partner of the Bengals is a privilege that couldn't have been possible without the hustle of our employees and the loyalty of our fans. Showcasing some of our favorite products to Who Dey Nation through this partnership is something we could never have dreamed of 13 years ago when we opened our doors."

— Dana Cummin, Self Distribution Sales & Sponsorship Director, Rhinegeist Brewery

To further celebrate this Cincy-brewed partnership, Bengals and Rhinegeist fans will have plenty of reasons to attend Bengals watch parties in the Rhinegeist taproom located at 1910 Elm Street. While home and away games are aired on Rhinegeist's 14-foot big-screen TV, fans will enjoy food and drink specials, ticket giveaways, and Bengals-themed activations. Pre-game festivities will take place at various locations at The Banks throughout the Bengals season featuring Bengals co-branded Rhinegeist offerings.

"Rhinegeist has always believed in the power of beer to bring people together. We’re fiercely proud of our Cincinnati roots and thrilled to partner with the equally passionate Cincinnati Bengals. We’re grateful for every opportunity to be part of fans’ Game Dey routines—whether you’re tailgating at The Banks, watching at our historic OTR taproom, or enjoying your favorite hometown beer with friends and family. Cheers to Cincy and the fans who make this city special."

— Adam Bankovich, CEO, Rhinegeist Brewery
