Legion of the Leprechaun Whiskey & South Bend Distillery 
We’re proud to announce a new chapter in our whiskey journey — a collaboration with South Bend Distillery. This legendary local distillery is now one of the proud homes where Legion of the Leprechaun Whiskey is crafted, poured, and shared.
Our whiskey journey has been nearly five years in the making. Many of you still remember the first-generation bottles that started it all. Now, the second generation is here — stronger and more refined than ever. With South Bend Distillery by our side, we’re taking things to the next level.
This partnership isn’t just about whiskey. It’s also about tradition, craftsmanship, and the pride of building something that every member of the Legion can call their own. As a result, fans can expect exclusive tastings, special events, and a whiskey experience worthy of the Irish spirit.
Experience Legion of the Leprechaun Whiskey at Our Home Tailgates
You can taste Legion of the Leprechaun Whiskey at all of our home tailgates. This gives fans the chance to enjoy its bold and smooth flavors. However, bottles will not be available for direct purchase at the tailgates.
Produced by South Bend Distillery for Irish fans everywhere, Legion of the Leprechaun Whiskey is a 750ml blended whiskey at 88 championship proof (44% alc/vol). Its balanced flavor profile features notes of brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Therefore, it’s perfect for casual sipping. For the full experience, enjoy it over ice in a tumbler.
Make Your Legion of the Leprechaun Whiskey Truly Your Own
What makes the new Legion of the Leprechaun Whiskey bottle unique is the personalized space on the back. You can use it to record a memorable game with scores, take it to an autograph signing, or mark any moment that matters to you. In this way, your bottle becomes a one-of-a-kind keepsake.
South Bend Distillery also contributes to the Holtz’s Heroes Foundation. This support honors Coach Lou Holtz and Lou’s Legends. Meanwhile, fans and collectors can explore all six signature bottles, each representing a Notre Dame legend: Chris Zorich, Michael Stonebreaker, Frank Stams, Todd Lyght, Pat Terrell, and Reggie Brooks.
Lou’s Legends Bourbon
Each Lou’s Legends bottle is a collectible piece of sports memorabilia. Inside, you’ll find a smooth, 4-year-aged wheated bourbon whiskey. It offers rich notes of brown sugar, vanilla, and butter. At the same time, it’s finished with the legendary fall spices of cinnamon and nutmeg.
