Jason Momoa is coming to Wisconsin. Yes, THAT Jason Momoa, the superstar behind Aquaman and Khal Drogo himself.
He'll be in the Milwaukee area Oct. 19, promoting his new premium vodka brand, Meili, with co-founder and friend Blaine Halvorson, according to the company's website. Halvorson is the creator of MadeWorn and Junk Food Clothing.
The duo will be hosting bottle signings that day at New Berlin's Costco, 15300 W. Grange Ave., from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., and Brookfield's Total Wine & More, 17300 W. Bluemound Road No. 200, from 2:30 to 4 p.m.
These events are part of the "Midwest Meili Vodka Bottle Signing Tour," which also includes stops in Iowa (where Momoa is from), Missouri and Minnesota, per the brand's Eventbrite page.
"Join us on tour! Stop by for your chance to get an exclusive bottle of Meili Vodka signed live," the brand's website advertises. The bottle signings will be done on a first-come, first-served basis.
While the tour stops are free to attend, according to the brand's website, the New Berlin Costco one is limited to Costco members only, the store told the Journal Sentinel. All tour attendees must be at least 21 years old.
This isn't the Hollywood leading man's first time in the area. A huge Harley-Davidson fan, Momoa has visited the Brew City-based motorcycle company's museum multiple times and even has a clothing collaboration with H-D. He's also dined at the legendary Five O'Clock Steakhouse, per a CBS 58 report.
More on Meili Vodka
Meili Vodka — which has been in the works for seven years — is designed to be enjoyed neat, the brand's website said. Its flavor profile is described as bright, smooth and effortless.
The vodka — handcrafted in Montana — uses water that's "considered one of the purest on Earth" and grains that are sourced from their own farms, which are centrally located to the water source and distillery, according to the website.
The brand is big on sustainability. No two bottles the vodka comes in are alike because they're created from 100% post-consumer recycled glass, the site said.
