Soda Beer Hybrids

This Boozy Beverage from MillerCoors Combines Smooth Ale and Sweet Soda

— August 25, 2015 — Lifestyle
MillerCoors is launching a fresh soda beer beverage that combines the smooth taste of beer with the sweet flavor of soda. The globally recognized beer company is launching two flavors of this soda beer in an effort to cater to a younger generation.

MillerCoors is set to release 'Henry’s Hard Ginger Ale' and 'Henry’s Hard Orange.' Both of these beverages contain well known soda options that are accepted and appreciated by the majority. By catering to a larger audience through recognizable flavors, the brand's target market will be more inclined to try the new beer.

While many younger consumers are motivated by ready-to-drink booze, not all consumers enjoy the taste of beer. These unique 'Henry's Hard' choices combine the best of both worlds. These two flavors are not set to be released until January of next year, leaving consumers anticipated for the drinks' launch in stores.
Trend Themes
1. Soda Beer Hybrids - MillerCoors is innovating the beverage industry by creating soda beer hybrids that combine the smooth taste of beer with the sweet flavor of soda.
2. Catering to Younger Generation - MillerCoors is targeting the younger demographic by launching soda beers with recognizable flavors to attract this market segment.
3. Meeting Diverse Consumer Preferences - The introduction of 'Henry's Hard Ginger Ale' and 'Henry's Hard Orange' caters to consumers who are motivated by ready-to-drink booze but do not enjoy the taste of traditional beer.
Industry Implications
1. Alcoholic Beverages - The alcohol industry has an opportunity to explore the creation of more hybrid beverage options that combine the best of both worlds.
2. Soft Drinks - Soft drink companies could consider partnering with beer manufacturers to develop soda beer hybrids and offer consumers a unique taste experience.
3. Retail - Retailers can anticipate increased product demand and consumer excitement upon the release of these soda beer hybrids in stores.
