Art Meets Whiskey: Breckenridge Distillery Debuts Limited-Edition Collectors Series Release with Pat Milbery

BRECKENRIDGE, Colo., Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Breckenridge Distillery, one of the most-awarded craft distilleries in the U.S. and part of Tilray Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLRY and TSX: TLRY), is turning whiskey into a canvas with the sixth edition of its acclaimed Collectors Art Series. This year's limited-edition release pairs Breckenridge's award-winning whiskey-making with the bold, colorful vision of Colorado muralist, professional snowboarder and creative Pat Milbery, whose original label design celebrates the mountain spirit, community and craftsmanship that define Breckenridge.

For this year's collaboration, the creative partnership comes to life with a new mural by Milbery at Tony P’s Bar & Pizzeria, located at 3000 Zuni St, Denver, CO 80211. The mural brings his signature style and the spirit of the Collectors Art Series into the local community, further reflecting the Distillery's commitment to supporting artists and creative spaces. Each collaboration transforms a limited-edition whiskey release into a collectible work of art while supporting the creative community through charitable giving.

For Milbery, the collaboration is deeply personal. After moving to Breckenridge to pursue professional snowboarding, the mountain town became the backdrop for many of life's defining moments, from launching his snowboarding career to discovering his artistic voice. Today, his signature murals can be found across four continents, where bold geometric forms, vibrant color palettes and nature-inspired imagery encourage connection, optimism and open-hearted living.

Inspired by the landscapes, friendships and unforgettable moments that shaped his journey, Milbery's artwork captures the joyful spirit of Breckenridge through colorful mountain vistas, evergreen forests, radiant sunsets and symbolic elements that honor both community and loved ones who continue to inspire his work. The design also reflects the craft behind whiskey, drawing a parallel between the thoughtful blending of barrels, flavors and character that goes into each expression and Milbery's own process of bringing together color, movement, memories and emotion to create a singular work of art.

"Everything about Breckenridge inspired the artwork. The friendships. The sunsets. The powder days. The evergreen forests. The crisp mountain mornings. The incredible community," said Milbery. "The artwork also honors important people in my life, including loved ones who are no longer physically with us but continue to inspire me every day. I wanted the design to represent joyful energy, gratitude, community and the colorful journey that Breckenridge has been in my life."

Milbery's artwork will appear on the Breckenridge Barbados Cask Finish Whiskey, bottled at 90 proof and 45% ABV. The limited-edition expression showcases Breckenridge Distillery's dedication to the art and craft of whiskey, bringing together carefully selected whiskey and the influence of Barbados cask finishing to create a distinctive expression. Just as Milbery thoughtfully layers color, texture and movement to create his artwork, Breckenridge's whiskey-making process brings together distinct elements, from spirit and barrel to time and finishing, to create a finished whiskey with its own character and story.

Since its inception, the Collectors Art Series has become one of Breckenridge Distillery's signature annual releases, highlighting acclaimed artists while reinforcing the Distillery's longstanding support of the arts. Previous collaborators include Miles Toland, Abby Wren and Alexandrea Pangburn, each bringing a unique perspective to the series while helping raise funds for organizations that champion artists and creative spaces.

Breckenridge Collectors Art Series releases have earned numerous accolades, including 2023 Best Blended LTD Release and 2020 Icons of Whisky's Campaign Innovator of the Year at the World Whiskies Awards, along with Gold and Double Gold medals at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

Breckenridge Collectors Art Series 6 will be available beginning September 15, 2026, exclusively at Breckenridge Distillery and the Main Street Tasting Room in Breckenridge, Colorado, for $125.
