Beer Girl is a gluten-reduced, low-alcohol beer brand with 3.5% ABV and zero sugar, and recently, the company announced its first national partnership with rising country artist Mackenzie Carpenter. This news coincides with the brand's expansion into Nashville and other Southeastern markets.
The collaboration between Beer Girl and Mackenzie Carpenter began when the country singer independently reached out as a fan of the brand after founder Caroline Foulk had already identified her as the embodiment of Beer Girl's values. The partnership officially launched with the beer appearing in the singer's music video for 'High Pony,' which made its debut on May 15. Additional integrations of the beer are planned throughout Mackenzie Carpenter's current tours with Riley Green and Jason Aldean.
