Belching Beaver returns as the “Official Craft Beer of The Parker 400”
Belching Beaver celebrates off-road racing culture with custom-branded Parker 400 beer
The Parker 400 is excited to announce its continued partnership with Southern California’s independent brewing powerhouse, Belching Beaver Brewery, known for its iconic Peanut Butter Milk Stout and Deftones Phantom Bride IPA. As the “Official Craft Beer of The Parker 400,” Belching Beaver will debut a custom-branded, limited-edition “Parker 400” beer at the 2025 event. The exclusive brew will be available on-site during the Parker 400 Off-Road Festival in downtown Parker, AZ, on January 15th, as well as at select stores in the Parker area. The collectible cans feature custom vintage cowboy-inspired artwork celebrating last year’s race winners—Conner McMullen, Adam Housholder, and Joe Terrana. Raise a can and toast to off-road racing history with this unique collaboration!
“Belching Beaver has cemented itself as part of off-road culture, having created custom beers for The Mint 400, The California 300, and now The Parker 400,” said Unlimited Off-Road Racing CEO Matt Martelli. “There’s nothing better than cracking open a cold beer after crossing the finish line, and now we have an official Parker 400 finish-line beer to continue that tradition.” Martelli added, “Together with Tom Vogel, one of Belching Beaver’s founders and a passionate off-road enthusiast, we selected Beav Light for its crisp, clean, and refreshing flavor. It’s the perfect all-day beer—whether you’re on the river or out in the dirt. We’ll be handing these to finishers as they cross the line, making their victory even sweeter.”
“We know there are a lot of craft beer enthusiasts in the off-road community who just want good, quality American beer,” said Belching Beaver founder and CEO Tom Vogel. “With a variety of styles—from lighter lagers and seltzers to our IPAs and stouts—there’s something for everyone.
I have a house on the river and absolutely love coming out here to off-road. Honestly, I’m just excited to get my UTV out and check out the course during the Poker Run. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone out here having a great time!”
Launched in 2012, Belching Beaver Brewery evolved from a desire to make great beer and have a ‘Dam Good Time’ doing it. The award-winning craft beer company is focused on two things: First, have a brand that offers quality craft beer, while also being whimsical and fun to inspire good times. Each Belching Beaver beer release carries its own individual style and personality. Second, make beer for everyone and all palates. From easy-drinking Blondes, Triple IPAs, Milk Stouts, Imperial Stouts as well as sours and barrel-aged beers, Belching Beaver Brewery has it!
