In a humorous spot, the Bud Light 3D Test Commercial shows why this [booze company](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bud-light-x-traeger-grills) can't run 3D television ads.

The commercial shows Bud Light market researchers conducting focus groups with 3D beers. Looking like they're all too real, the 3D beers cause the participants to find themselves painfully teased by the dimensional bottles. Grabbing at thin air and falling into television sets are the booze-hounding situations the Bud Light 3D Test Commercial is saving us from.
