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.”

New Belgium toasts the 90s with grape fizz beer
New Belgium Grape Fizz Ale.

Nostalgia and drinks culture are joined at the hip. Just ask the resurgence of Cosmopolitan cocktail recipes on the internet and beyond. Earlier this week, New Belgium Brewing dropped its 2025 summer seasonal release in the Grape Fizz Beer.

The purple brew is inspired by the popular grape sodas of the 1990s. You know, the ones that came in bright cans and poured even brighter in the glass. While this one smells like grape candy (think Jolly Ranchers), the flavor is that of a well made fruited sour beer.
