References: cutwaterspirits & bevnet
Cutwater, a major producer of pre-mixed canned cocktails owned by Anheuser-Busch, is launching a seasonal marketing initiative called 'Real Spirits Inside.' The campaign is designed to emphasize the brand's use of award-winning distilled spirits within its products to counter the potential consumer perceptions of inferior quality, which is often associated with ready-to-drink options.
The 'Real Spirits Inside' campaign is formatted as a sweepstakes with a grand prize of an overnight experience for two at a historically significant location known for paranormal lore — the Franklin Castle in Cleveland. The planned itinerary for the winners includes guided historical tours, cocktail tasting sessions, a specially paired dinner, and a late-night paranormal investigation using professional equipment.
Individuals can enter Cutwater's sweepstakes from September 15th through September 24th via social media or an online form on the brand's website.
