Anheuser-Busch, the beer giant behind Bud Light, has released a line of “cocktails” it’s calling MIXXTAIL (yes, all caps). Available in cans or bottles, the drinks are meant to be served over ice and are available in three varieties—Hurricane, Long Island and a spicy cinnamon flavor called Firewalker. The drinks aren’t cocktails, but flavored beers.

Bud Light’s first venture into the world of pre-made cocktail-like drinks was the line of Bud Light Lime Ritas, which turned out to be a huge success. Vice President of Bud Light Alexander Lambrecht said in a press release, “We created a cocktail-inspired beverage to quench consumers' demand for more variety, mixology and easy, convenient cocktail solutions. MIXXTAIL'S bold cocktail taste makes it the perfect pre-game in a bottle."


We wouldn’t say MIXXTAIL will deliver in terms of mixology, but it’s sure to pop up at pre-game tailgates across the nation. Read more about the new line of drinks here.
