MillerCoors launches Henry’s Hard Soda, an adults-only carbonated refreshment. The brand is a nod to renegade brewing legend Henry Weinhard, who is known in the Pacific Northwest for making flavorful beers and soda for more than a century. When Portland, Ore., unveiled a new public fountain in 1887, Weinhard offered to pump beer through the fountain for everyone to enjoy, forever changing the city’s beer scene.
Crafted for beer and non-beer drinkers alike, with 4.2 percent alcohol by volume, Henry’s puts a playful spin on familiar flavors with Henry’s Hard Ginger Ale and Henry’s Hard Orange Soda. The drinks are available nationwide at most grocery and convenience stores in six-packs of 12-oz. bottles and single 16-oz. cans.
“One of the main reasons why I love this product is because life is busy with work, kids and bills, but there’s always time to sneak in a little fun with friends,” says Bryan Ferschinger, MillerCoors senior director of innovations. “Beer is great, but now we also have an option that gives a little more flavor and excitement.”
