Bosque Ranch — the Texas equine facility owned by filmmaker Taylor Sheridan — will feature EIGHT Elite Light Beer as an official beverage partner during its upcoming Bosque Ranch Live concert series on September 12. As part of this partnership, attendees can drink the brand while touring the grounds on Kubota vehicles or listening to performances by country artists.
EIGHT Elite Light Beer draws attention as a clean-ingredient light beer. The company was founded by former NFL quarterback Troy Aikman and distinguished from mainstream competitors by its all-malt recipe brewed with pure barley and no additives, sweeteners, or artificial components. Overall, the EIGHT Elite Light Beer boasts 90 calories and 2.6 grams of carbohydrates per serving.
The partnership with Bosque Ranch, which serves as a filming location for popular series like Yellowstone and 1883, lends the beer an authentic Western lifestyle credibility.
