Beer Deer Is Back (and Buckin’) — Now Part of the Kanga Family
Have you ever seen a deer mount made from beer cases?
Meet Beer Deer — the ultimate fusion of man cave vibes, outdoorsman pride, and “hold my beer” creativity. And we’ve got BIG news…
Beer Deer is officially joining Kanga.
And we couldn’t be more fired up.
But this isn’t some stiff corporate acquisition story. It’s a reunion. A glow-up. And a comeback tale with one very passionate founder at the heart of it all.
The Backstory: How a College Apartment Project Sparked a Movement
Beer Deer was born in a college apartment where Ryan Lubker, a longtime Kanga ambassador, was just trying to make his space stand out.
So, he grabbed a stack of beer boxes, a pair of scissors, and a wild idea:
What if you could mount a deer head made entirely from your favorite beer cases?
What started as a personal DIY project quickly snowballed. His buddies loved it. Everyone wanted one. And next thing you know, Beer Deer was a brand — a celebration of laid-back fun for beer lovers and outdoor enthusiasts everywhere. Soon, Beer Deer expanded into other animals. Think:
-
🦅 Eagles for the patriots
-
🐟 Bass and Marlin for the anglers
-
🐻... and maybe a few bears if you're feelin' wild
Now, you’ll find them online and in Bass Pro Shops nationwide, so whether you’re dressing up the garage, the hunting cabin, or just your dorm wall, you’ll be covered with cool decor.
The Full-Circle Moment: Ryan Returns to the Brand He Built
Here’s where the story gets good.
After building Beer Deer and eventually selling it, Ryan stepped away from the brand he created. But the spark never left. He kept dreaming up new ideas, new animals, new ways to bring it all to life… he just needed the right partner and to get back at the helm.
Now? Ryan’s back in the saddle — and leading the Beer Deer brand alongside Kanga.
As a Kanga brand ambassador for years, Ryan’s always been part of the Kanga family. Now he’s part of the Kanga team.
Why It Makes Sense: Fun Is in Our DNA
Kanga and Beer Deer were basically cut from the same cardboard.
Our brands — and more importantly, our customers — live for a good time. Whether it’s tailgates, weekends at the lake, or post-hunt beers in the garage, we all believe in making the most of every moment.
So whether you're packing a Kanga to the party or hanging a Beer Deer above the bar, we’re all about fun that doesn’t take itself too seriously.
What’s Next: Limited Drops. New Mounts. Old Favorites.
With Ryan back and the full force of the Kanga crew behind Beer Deer, here’s what to expect:
-
🔥 New product drops
-
🦌 Returning fan-favorites (I’m looking at you, Coors Banquet Longhorn)
-
🎯 Limited editions you won’t want to miss
-
🎁 Bundles, collabs, and maybe even a few surprises…
So crack a cold one, grab some wall space, and get ready.
Beer Deer is back.
And it's lookin' better than ever.
