Coors Light is doing beer bows for the holidays

A bow with a little extra

From classic Clydesdale cans to fireplace beer dispensers, there’s a festive theme running through the big beer brands at the moment. Coming in right on cue is Coors Light, which has dropped its beer bows in an effort to make average gifts all the better.

The idea is to brighten up those lesser gifts, from socks to staplers. The bows include QR codes giftees can scan for promos and other perks through Coors. First launched earlier this month, the bows will be on sale for a limited time, for those looking to get into the spirit. Coors says bows ordered by the 15th will arrive by Christmas.

While a bowling ball is a perfectly good gift, we understand the sentiment. The so-called “surprise gift bundle” included with the bow offers access to Coors Light merch and a gift card. So, if you’re worried about how your present or White Elephant gift will be received, consider putting a bow on it.

“Whether it’s shipping delays, crowds, or the stress of finding the perfect present, there’s nothing chill about holiday shopping,” said Marcelo Pascoa, vice president of marketing, Coors Family of Brands. “So for the Coors Light fan in your life, our beer bows transform your not-so-great gift into something special worth celebrating.”

USA Today has released its 10Best Readers' Choice Awards list for 2025 and the results may surprise you. The best beer city, for the fifth consecutive year, was awarded to Grand Rapids, Michigan. Turns out, the Midwest town of about 200,000 has more than 60 breweries.

Others on the list are perhaps more expected, like Portland with its proximity to hop farms and San Diego with its booming craft scene. Grand Rapids is perhaps most widely known by craft enthusiasts as the headquarters of Founders Brewing Company, which got its start back in 1997.

10 Barrel Money Cat lager.

West coast brewery 10 Barrel Brewing has a new canned beer in its portfolio. The Oregon label just dropped Money Cat, a beer inspired by the refreshing rice lagers of Japan. Technically, the beer has been around a while in keg form, but now it's available in the can.

The move follows a bigger trend of lighter beer styles gaining popularity over the last several years. A mellow beer, the ABV sits at a quaffable 4.8%. There's a hint of hops and balance throughout, with a touch of sweetness.

A new year-round light roast coffee
Starbucks Sunsera

Starbucks' new Sunsera blend has arrived. This new blonde roast coffee contains beans sourced from Brazil and Colombia. Launching on March 4th for purchase in Starbucks cafes and grocery stores throughout the U.S. and Canada, this new blonde roast adds a new brew to your spring coffee list. Delicious when brewed hot or iced (with or without milk), this light roast coffee offers something new and different for the coffee chain. Unlike other light roast coffees, the Sunsera blend has a softer, more nuanced taste. The brand says this coffee tastes equally delicious when served with or without cream, and we can't wait to try it out.

In addition to being available for purchase to brew at home, Starbucks Sunsera Blend will also be available as the Blonde Roast Coffee of the Day in Starbucks cafe locations. Combined with the company's new free refill policy, ' those staying in the cafe can enjoy a free refill of the Sunsera blend during the same visit. Per the brand, "The semi-washed and sun-dried coffees from Brazil bring out flavors of Meyer lemon zest and toasted almond while the washed coffees from Colombia bring out flavor notes of Asian pear and apricot. The Sunsera name conveys its easy-going personality – a blend of sun for its sunny personality and sera for the traditional Italian greeting buona sera."
