Denver holds the all-time record with 11 national championships, including four in the past decade in 2017, 2022, 2024 and 2026. Under Richard and Kitzia Goodman Head Hockey Coach David Carle, Denver has captured its three most recent titles, delivering three championships in five years.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.“Last spring’s 11th Denver hockey national championship, the program’s third title in five years, was a special moment in Denver Athletics history,” Vice Chancellor for Athletics and Ritchie Center Operations Josh Berlo said. “Special moments, especially ones of this magnitude, call for special commemoration. We are excited that a close group of supporters had the opportunity to provide input with Breckenridge Distillery and be a part of barrel tasting for this new product for our fans. To have a significant portion of the proceeds go towards hockey scholarships makes this a full circle commemoration and empowering future national success for the legacy and tradition that is Denver hockey.”The collaboration brought a group of Denver Athletics supporters to Breckenridge Distillery for a behind-the-scenes experience in the barrel room. Participants toured the distillery, learned about the whiskey-making process and evaluated different barrels alongside the Breckenridge Distillery team before helping select the single barrel used for the commemorative release.This advertisement has not loaded yet.This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.“We were welcomed with open arms at the Breckenridge distillery.

Bottled at 101.7 proof, the single-barrel release offers aromas of balanced oak spice, caramel and brown sugar, followed by a creamy, viscous palate with notes of caramel, brown sugar and cinnamon and a hint of black pepper spice.The 230-bottle limited release is available for $179.99 at Bonnie Brae Liquor, 785 S.
