The Nike Dunk Low Premium SB – Newcastle Brown Ale (Gold / Atlantic Blue) are another beer inspired Dunk, the Nike Dunk Low Pro SB – Heineken (classic green / black / white / red) being the other. They retailed for $90, and some exclusive retailers went as far as to give a six pack of beer out to the first couple of customers, who had ID of course. They sport a a beige and brown color scheme, along with a blue Nike swoosh, which is the same as the official colors of the Beer company that inspired their design.
Newcastle is thought to be the first place in Britain to brew beer. Legends aside, it is known that Newcastle’s first commercial brewery, John Barras & Company of Gateshead, was established here in 1770. Then, in 1890, after the Gateshead Brewery was bought by the North Eastern Railway Company, John Barras & Company purchased the Tyne Brewery and linked up with several small breweries in North Shields, Gateshead and Sunderland to form The Newcastle Breweries Ltd. via NewCastle
