Budweiser tried this back in the late 70's - early 80's and failed!

Anyone remember "Chelsea" or "Route66"? Or the entire line of Eagle Snacks for that matter. AB would have been better off buying Frito Lay from Pepsi! (I remember Chelsea, it contained a small amount of alcohol. Parents groups were up in arms over it!)

It cantained .05% alcohol. Food and Drug said that wasn't enougt to be considered beer and therefor they weren't interested in regulating it.

Eagle snacks were good. I think they were the first one to introduce Honey Roasted peanuts to the general public.

    • Replying to razor forgot to quote: Sad to say would have been better, I didn’t mean I was personally apologizing for anything.   I have driven with a buzz for sure. Long life, lots has happened. Also was a totally sober person for a long time. Seen both sides.  The biggest issue as I see it is with people who have one too many and then it is on... they have lost all control and judgement when they have that one that pushes them over. That, is really dangerous.     
    • Increasing punishment only deters crime to a point.  The vast majority of people who drink and drive are doing it with the expectation that they won't be caught (and 95% of the time, they are right, which is why they keep doing it; they don't consider the possibility of something bad happening and facing punishment).  Making the punishment more severe isn't going to change that, especially when this decision is made by those who aren't thinking clearly to begin with. If cutting down on drinking and driving is the goal, then the solution isn't making the punishment more severe, but by making alcohol less accessible.  But that will never happen.
    • If we were somewhere that was okay, we could have a fun conversation I am pretty sure.
