I like the idea. As a straight guy who drinks vodka and soda/tonic I get told my drink is gay from time to time. Now nobody will feel the need to inform me since it's printed right on the can.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

They'll still point it out to you.
My husband gets told there are pronouns on his badge all the time, as if he didn't know they were there.
This comment made me laugh out aloud at home.
The official beverage of getting drunk and trying stuff
Well everyone, time to go fetch a frog and test something
Schmooze booze.
I'm fine with marketing to gay people, but this feels like pandering.
All marketing is pandering. This company just saw a huge niche that hadn't yet been filled and jumped in. You're not wrong that it's somewhat exploitative, but all products are to some extent.
Grift water
Fair play to them, as a real ale drinking Brit, I wouldn't touch this or bud light with a bargepole, but if it a corp outwardly supporting LGBT rights then I hope it does well.
Your ales taste great but I can't get used to the low carbonation.
The low carbonation is what I love about them, I do like some lagers but drinking them all day is too much gas, lol.

Pro tip: always have at least two on hand. That way you drink one to turn gay and then you can drink another to become gay gay. It then cancels out to straight again.

At first I read it as "Gray Water" and thought it was a terrible idea.
Honestly I'm just glad to hear people recognizing that Anheuser-Busch isn't a trans icon or even queer friendly.
A mildlyinteresting community but you can post with links? I love Lemmy
I’d try some Gay Water out of curiosity (if it’s zero sugar), but last weekend when I had a Truly, I had an imploding headache five hours later that was so bad I wanted to die. I think I’ll pass on this and all hard seltzers, because I’m a super lightweight. Heh.
Probably it's just bottom shelf booze using the Bud Light controversy for sales
