Budweiser Is Teaming Up With Jim Beam for a New Beer

We’ve spent plenty of nights with our good friends Bud and Jim, though we can’t recall them all that well. Now the two labels are coming together to streamline the shot and a beer procedure. Budweiser Reserve Copper Lager is a beer aged on Jim Beam bourbon barrel staves, lending the brew notes of vanilla and toasted oak. The beer is set for release later this year, as it marks the 85th anniversary of the repeal of Prohibition. Now you can drink your Jim Beam and your Budweiser together without forgetting what happened after midnight. Or you could just pound 12 of them and make up for the lack of bourbon. Your call.
