As people strive to lead more balanced lifestyles, alcohol brands are responding by creating lower-ABV versions of their products, including Beefeater, which recently introduced a light gin in Spain. The first-of-its-kind product from the brand helps to meet the growing demand for low- and no-ABV spirits, all the while offering an experience that's familiar. Beefeater's new product is said to maintain the same flavor as ever yet the full-flavored light spirit has half the alcohol as usual.
Beefeater Light sets itself apart with a predominantly blue color scheme and rich details like embossing to create a tactile paper label on the bottle.
Alcohol brands like Beefeater are creating new products that prioritize flavor, especially as new generations don't necessarily see alcohol as a must-have for socializing with others.
