Splash Lagoon waterpark has partnered with local Lake City brewery Twisted Elk to create a new pineapple-flavored beer called 'Fin-Tastic' that will be available exclusively at the park. The beer is named after Splash Lagoon's mascot Fin and aims to provide a unique and refreshing beverage option for visitors.

Why it matters

This collaboration between Splash Lagoon and Twisted Elk highlights the growing trend of waterparks and other tourist destinations partnering with local breweries to offer unique and branded beer options that enhance the overall guest experience. It also demonstrates how small, independent breweries can leverage these types of partnerships to gain exposure and tap into new markets.

The details

Twisted Elk, a brewery located in Lake City, Michigan, developed the new 'Fin-Tastic' pineapple beer specifically for Splash Lagoon. The beer will only be available for purchase at the waterpark and is meant to complement the park's tropical theming and appeal to visitors looking for a refreshing, summery beverage option.

• Splash Lagoon and Twisted Elk announced the new beer partnership in April 2026.
• The 'Fin-Tastic' pineapple beer will debut and be available exclusively at Splash Lagoon starting in the 2026 summer season.

What’s next

Splash Lagoon plans to promote the new 'Fin-Tastic' pineapple beer through social media, in-park signage, and other marketing channels ahead of its debut in the 2026 summer season.
