1/20/2012-The Pecos League of Professional Baseball Clubs and the Trinidad Triggers will offer a custom label beer.
Today the team agreed to a custom label with the Triggers logo for both wine and beer. The beer will be a pale amber lager. Today Head Coach Justin Lowery and Assistant Coach JD Droddy dropped by Tire Shop Wine and Spirits to test and approve the beer. "It tastes good" says Lowery.
Tire Shop Wine and Spirits at 601 W Main will have exclusive rights to produce and sell the wine and beer. The Triggers will receive a small portion of the proceeds to help offset their large travel costs. The store is very unique and is the most popular beer store in Southern Colorado. The Triggers are the only team in the Pecos League that could pull off such an event due to the harsh New Mexico alcohol laws and anti-donation laws.
The beer most likely won't be sold at the games as the Pecos League is likely to have an exclusive contract with Budweiser throughout the league.
The Trinidad Triggers will play their first game May 8th, 2012 at home against the Santa Fe Fuego.
The Triggers are going to fit right into the Pecos League where teams are beginning to really have signature items. The White Sands Pupfish are having their own pool installed in right field. The Roswell Invaders have lime green baseballs, jerseys and pants and an alien hanging from the rafters of their stadium.
