What do you think the new fad for BMC will be?

[zman]

Again, whether or not you like the flavor of BMC is irrelevant. A lot of people buy it because they do.

and a lot of people are Jehova's Witnesses also

 

[klyph]

Everyone I know who drinks BMC is because it contains alcohol. Flavor has little to do with it.

 

[evsjeep527]

I'm going to go with what somebody said earlier in this thread... throwback brands.

Schlitz, Schmidts, Schaeffer, PBR, Old Pub, Miller High Life (the bottles look old anyway)...

Ok so I'm not old enough to remember any other good ones. And some of those may be regional too...

 

[brewagentjay]

PBR is still alive an well my friends it's the same beer no changes...It also sells....I know people who only go to bars who have it.....

As far as the fad I can find out I used to work for one of the letters in BMC.....
I still got a few friends there...

I like the thread seems good to ask that but to turn the thread into another let's hate on the BMC folks is way over done on this board....

On side note they aren't all bad just got too greedy is all...Once a company get's too big it goes away from it's roots....Some of the people who work there really just want to make a good product and good living doing it.....Management of those so call bad companies just lost there way or are to far removed from where the rubber meets.

Now my guess with out knowing what marketing plans are going on is that it to be something like what dominos has done..."we have gotten complaints about flavor so we'll going back to the basics..." So we'll see the BrewMaster on the commericals ->just my guess

I think the next new fad will be beer with creatine or other "muscle building" ingredients. "Budweiser Musclehead - Live up to the stereotype." Or maybe a Coors Light with glucosamine/chondroitin for joint health? "Coors Crippler - You know your joints are going to hurt when the mountains turn blue."

 

[humann_brewing]

I guess the next thing is magic beer

 

[HardtoPort]

Next BMC Fad: "Aluminum screwtop vortex bottle IN 3D!!!!":rockin:

 

[wacko]

Vitamin beer light.

You heard it here first and I want credit and money when the big makers do it.

 

[Zamial]

I will throw in my .02 here as well. I am feeling "green beer" not the food colored St.Pats day stuff but beer that was grown, harvested and made "green". Just to be able to appeal to the masses. It will probably have green colored tabs they will collect for an environmental project/donation.

"When the mountains turn green, not only will your beer be cold but the mountains will be there for the next generation."

"Bud Green, This is Earth's Bud!"

"Tastes great, less polluting."

"Living the Green life."

 

[GaryJohn]

Ohh, the "green beer." Good guess there.

Lets see, we already got limes all over...vortex bottles...super low calorie brews....hmmm...

I just think they are going to continue to produce pseudo-craft beers and try to keep piggybacking on that market.

High Definition Lager.

The carton will still have the 16:9 aspect ratio and you'll still have to drink 60 a second progressively to get the full effect.






In other words, nothing will change except the marketing.

 

[NorCalAngler]

One thing I will give them credit for is the home draft system. It may be the same beer inside, but being able to pour a proper pint at home is pretty darn cool for a consumer. The fact they were able to sell a package that has so many moving parts and points of possible failure in this litigious country is a testament to the amount of work they put into this unit. I haven't tried it and probably won't because I don't like the product that is inside, but from what I've read this was tested in smaller market segments before the nationwide launch so they could iron out any issues.

That would be pretty cool if you could refill it with homebrew.

mgd 64?

 

[steinsato]

I think they will go with lambics for sure

 

[humann_brewing]

mgd 64?

that's right less is better, less taste less filling or something like that right?

 

[jbrookeiv]

Good beer? Nah, probably not...

 

[beergears]

"Budweiser Musclehead

I see it with a lot of chrome and billet aluminum.

Maybe tasels on the bottle neck?
I hope the beer bottle is designed so as to leave an oil mark on the counter.

 

[worxman02]

Just saw a commercial for Miller "Lite" , where the bottles have a vortex designed into the neck to let you chug beer faster. See here: http://www.examiner.com/craft-beer-...duces-new-marketing-gimmick-the-vortex-bottle

 

[arturo7]

A beer that tastes like grapefruit.

 

[bilder]

Organic and sustainable beer.

Zero calorie beer. They will call it "Malt water"

Cask conditioned beer. They just won't say that the casks are 50,000 gallon steel casks.

Barley wine beer.

Beer flavored jello.

 

[MetallHed]

MillerCoors just made a branch dedicated to craft... under a different name.. cant remember it though..

 

[devilin357]

With the recently introduced Bud Select 55, it appears that InBev is going after bottled water sales.

Its real... see

 

[wscott823]

Its real... see

Christ! I was just being facetious, that's hilarious though.

 

[Scooby_Brew]

I'm suprised they're not in the energy drink buissnes yet. They could advertise it us the "Bud for the morning".

A few years ago there was a "beer" called "B to the E." It was just the letter B with an E in superscript. Awful.


But your post reminds me of this old SNL sketch.

 

[Starderup]

maybe stop selling fermented rice beverage and do real beer? nah!

 

[GilaMinumBeer]

Looks like the new fad will be........free.
