    Real beer nerds wouldn’t admit to knowing what a Ballast Point looks like since they got bought out by AB like 10 years ago.

      Real beer nerds would know they got bought by Constellation (Corona, Pacifico) not AB InBev.

      Real beer nerds would also know that Constellation sold them to a group of Brewers (Kings Convicts) in Chicago 5 years ago.

      Grapefruit scuplin came before the buyout. So there’d be no shame in recognizing this era of their branding even if you were right.

      Don’t try to out beer-nerd me, Holmes! Homie don’t play 🤓
