Did you know that WOMEN can drink beer too?

Options
Hey ladies, have you ever felt left out at the bar? All the guys are drinking their strong, man beer and you just don't have the right genitals to drink one too. Where is the beer for YOU? With a picture of a puppy playing with a unicorn, you know, something in pink that really appeals to a woman? Well, look no further:

Really? A beer for women? I've spent the past 5 minutes being sarcastic about this, so I'll just be straight up here and say that this is patronising bull.

    Exactly! You don't need it to be in pink packaging.

    I had a beer last night. It was a lovely Innis & Gunn blonde and it was 110 cals. I had no problem drinking it, even though there was not a shred of pink on the label.

    The font is offensive enough in itself.

    ROCK ON!

    Exactly!! Why does it need to be 'for women'. What is it about regular beer that ISN'T for women? You don't need to slap a pink label on it to make it appeal to women. Women drink beer without that marketing crap.

    Im confused.
    Are you saying we dont like to drink normal beer out of a can?
    Or we dont like to drink beer that has been specificaly made for girls?

    Nooo, my first post was sarcasm.

    I'm just saying that I think it's stupid that someone has decided to market "beer for women" when women are fine with drinking regular beer.

    I'd prefer to drink regular beer!!
    I dont like the idea of it becoming a sexist thing where women are expected to by these "feminine" beers instead of normal ones!
    Pluss if you get in a fight, ripping the cans creates an amazing weapon!

    This is what they where like with yorkies!
    They made galaxy smooth for woman, which i hate!
    It tastes weird.
    Then they made this big blocks of chocolate and i was like *-* Wow!!
    And my bf was like arnt meant to like these..
    and i was like whats one of the things girls like the most in the world.. chocolate.
    and whats better than a massive chunk of it!!
    This should of been directed and chocolate freaks like us..
    not guys that dont really care if there shoveling a handful of small pieces, or a handful of big pieces..
    I think they got their marketing campaign completely wrong!!

    Oh dear lord. Really?

    Personally I'm not a fan of beer at all (more of a cider girl), but loads of my female friends drink beer and I can guarantee that none of them would be seen dead drinking this. What a load of patronising crap! And the packaging is bloody hideous.

    Real Ale is where it's at!

    I'm glad we all agree this is ridiculous. Apparently it was on the TV in the US today. The FB page looks pretty positive too.

    I LOVE beer, especially in a big plastic cup at a festival. Its so good and it gets me wasted, and a really nice type of wasted. Beer is the business. I heard that light beer has less cals but the same amount of alcohol, anyone know if that's true?

    lol whatever..pink beer..I'll put that with the set of pink tools just for women.

    I love Sam Adems cherry wheat and Blue Moon, and Kirin beers...probably like others but haven't had a lot of time to try out others. more of a whiskey girl anyway.
