Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water, Narragansett Beer is diving back into summer with a tidal wave of nostalgia to mark the 50th anniversary of Jaws\u2014the legendary blockbuster that made beachgoers everywhere think twice about taking a dip and catapulted \u2018Gansett into pop culture history.<\/h2>\n

It all comes back to that scene: Captain Quint (played by the iconic Robert Shaw)<\/em>, a boat, a beast, and a can of Narragansett Lager crushed with cinematic flair. Since that unforgettable moment first hit screens on June 20, 1975, \u2018Gansett has been riding the wave\u2014and now, 50 years later, the brand is going full shark mode. Expect throwback cans, retro energy, epic collabs, and more nostalgia than you can fit on the Orca.<\/p>\n

To honor the occasion, Narragansett is re-releasing its beloved 1975 retro cans\u2014the very same design that made its big-screen debut in Jaws. Inside? The same award-winning Lager fans know and love. The timing couldn\u2019t be better: 2025 marks the 135th anniversary of Narragansett\u2019s founding in 1890 and 20 years since its modern revival in 2005. In that time, the beer has earned top honors, including the #1 domestic premium lager spot on BeerAdvocate and a place in the Brewers Association\u2019s Top 20 American Craft Breweries of 2024.<\/p>\n

\u201cNarragansett\u2019s cameo in Jaws isn\u2019t just a cool trivia fact \u2013 it\u2019s a badge of honor,\u201d says Mark Hellendrung, CEO of Narragansett Beer and fellow fan of fins, films, and crisp, cold lager.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThat can-crushing moment connected us with generations of movie lovers and beer drinkers. Fifty years later, we\u2019re still proud to be part of the legacy of a film that changed cinema \u2013 and summer \u2013 forever. This celebration is our way of saying thanks. So, let\u2019s crush some cans, swap some stories, and party like it\u2019s 1975!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Since first bringing the retro can back in 2012, \u2018Gansett has stayed true to its cinematic roots \u2013hosting screenings, popping up at community events, and keeping the spirit of summer and great beer alive and well. So, grab a retro can, cue that ominous music, and toast with \u2018Gansett to 50 years of sharks, cinema, and the best damn lager in New England.<\/p>\n
