“The official beer of Saturday morning,” is the repre- hensible (and that’s the only word that comes to mind) tag line for a new TV ad for Coors Light beer that appeared during the football games this past weekend. The ad depicts two roommates in their early to mid 20s who are preparing breakfast and then sit down on their couch to watch the football games while still clad in their pajamas. They then break out the Coors Lights while eating breakfast and watching TV. In our view, this ad represents a new low for a liquor in- dustry that increasingly is targeting a younger and younger audience with messages that essentially equate having a good time with getting drunk. Right after the Coors ad came one for Budweiser’s Plat- inum Light beer. We did not know why it was called plati- num so we looked it up. It turns out that regular Bud Light has an alcohol content of 4.2 percent, but Bud Platinum has an alcohol content of 6 percent. Here’s how Bud describes its Platinum product on its web site: “Platinum is back. And the memories are sure to follow. With a sleek new look and the same smooth, slight- ly sweet finish, it’s time to kick your night off the right way. The Platinum way.” In other words, “kick your night off” is a euphemism for becoming inebriated faster. And what about this line: “And the memories are sure to follow.” Really? Drunken memories will be something to remember? But the liquor industry is not the only one to blame. Universities also are now part and parcel of the problem of drawing-in underage drinkers.
