OCEAN X JETTY

That Local Feel: Ocean Casino Resort’s Summer 2024 Community Partnerships

Published: May 2024

Ocean Casino Resort glitters above twenty beachfront acres on the stunning Atlantic City Boardwalk—this is our home. We feel a deep commitment to the local economy here, and visitors from near and far sustain businesses and families we know and love. 

That’s just one reason why we’ve partnered with four one-of-a-kind New Jersey businesses to celebrate Summer 2024. It’s going to be a season of big wins, delicious eats, and warm weather fun for all, and we’re excited to share the love with some of our favorite brands. 

What can visitors expect to see this summer? Let’s splash into our exciting community partnerships and the exclusive products and experiences we’re delivering to guests. 

Ocean x Bar 32

What’s the one special ingredient that just makes everything—from lounging on the beach to a late-night movie marathon—better? 

Chocolate, of course. 

That’s why we’re continuing our special partnership with Bar 32, the AC chocolatiers and dessert aficionados who always deliver an extra dose of sweetness to the Boardwalk. The Bar 32 team created three exclusive chocolate bars to help Ocean Casino Resort celebrate the summer:

  • Pineapple Macadamia Nut Chocolate Bar
  • Orange Creamsicle Chocolate Bar
  • Dark Chocolate Bar with Sea Salt

What do all of these bars have in common? They showcase matches made in heaven: tangy pineapple with creamy macadamia nuts, acidic orange with sweet cream, and (of course) sumptuous dark chocolate and sea salt.

Ocean Casino Resort visitors can find these scrumptious bars at Bottled and in our online shop.

About Bar 32

Atlantic City’s foremost dessert destination, Bar 32 is a love letter to remarkable flavors, culinary innovation, and local artistry. 

Made in-house and from scratch, Bar 32 chocolates are derived from rich, imported Tanzanian Cacao. Their collection of chocolates, desserts, and home baking products are infused with the finest ingredients on the market, including:

  • Maldon Sea Salt
  • Marcona Almonds
  • Luxardo Cherries

You simply won’t find better chocolate on the Boardwalk—Bar 32 offers a must-taste experience for every Atlantic City visitor.

Ocean x The Seed

Nothing sets summer apart quite like crisp, refreshing, cold beers. To deliver a quintessential summer brew, Ocean Casino Resort partnered with The Seed – A Living Beer Project. And our beer masterminds put their heads together to create something truly sensational. 

Introducing Seeds of the Ocean: our exclusive summer brew packed with flavor and character. A well-rounded, unique beer, Seeds of the Ocean truly has something for every taste:

  • A mix of fresh and aged hops (for a profile that’s both crisp and funky)
  • Herbal and citrus notes
  • Earthy and round hop character 

For beer nerds and casual drinkers alike, this is the perfect formula for summer sipping. Visitors can find it at Villain & Saint, TopGolf Swing Suite, Nola’s Bar & Lounge, and other venues all summer long. And, if you fall in love with the taste (we know you will), you can grab a 4-pack from Bottled for your beach cooler or minibar. 

About The Seed

In the slate of Atlantic City bars, The Seed offers something completely unique: a poetic, ever-evolving craft brewing effort informed by the natural world and simple ingredients. 

Say Amanda and Sean (The Seed’s masterminds), “Through the beer we make we hope to tell a story of a living earth, a story of the people and communities so heavily linked to an ecosystem, and a story of interconnectedness.” 

As Atlantic City’s only brewery, The Seed pushes the envelope of the Boardwalk’s food and beverage scene and inspires fellow culinary innovators to find the beauty in our local flora. 

Ocean x Hank Sauce

If you visited Ocean Casino Resort last summer, you likely got a taste of our exclusive collab with Hank Sauce: Across the Boards, a mouth-watering hot sauce that pairs perfectly with our array of culinary delights.

This summery-sweet sauce delivers mild heat and ample flavor. Here are a few highlights from the ingredients list:

  • Red Fresno peppers
  • Pineapple
  • Tequila
  • Blue agave
  • Garlic
  • Cilantro

The perfect pairing for fish tacos, crispy fries, and even margaritas, Across the Boards is an ode to the summer heat. Grab some at Bottled or in our online shop all summer!

About Hank Sauce

Hank Sauce was born when three New Jersey-born college roommates (Matt, Josh, and Hank) devised a formula that would change the game in their local cookout scene. While the original formula started as a personal use flavor-booster for resident chef Hank, a class assignment transformed the humble hot sauce into a hot ticket item. 

After passing out the bottles during a presentation in class, Matt was met with a barrage of requests from prospective buyers. The trio describes this as the “we may have something here” moment that changed everything. 

Operating out of Millville, NJ, Hank Sauce is a beloved staple on the Boardwalk and beyond.

Ocean x Jetty

  • Crewnecks
  • Kids gear
