Mini Bud Lights meet big PBR bratwurst sausages. We’ve that, “Unspoken Social Rules” and more.

 Bud Light & Post Malone Debut Mini Beers

Bud Light has partnered with Post Malone to release Bud Light x Posty Co. Minis, a limited-edition line of small-format beers. These mini beverages are co-created to celebrate the decade-long partnership between the artist and the brand.

Co-created by Bud Light and Post Malone, Bud Light x Posty Co. Minis are a brilliant beer option similar to Sierra Nevada’s recently introduced “Pils” mini-cans. The 7-oz. bottles and 7.5-oz. cans showcase the iconic Bud Light blue packaging while displaying Malone’s “Posty Co.” logo and his personal style of buzzsaw blades and chains.

“When Bud Light and I realized we’ve been teaming up for 10 years, we knew we had to do something … small,” Post Malone said.  “It’s a simple thing: if the Bud Lights are mini, they stay cold longer for you and your buddies to enjoy. Genius, if I say so myself. We’ve been working on this collab for a while, and I can’t wait to see y’all drinking the beers and rocking the merch at Stagecoach and across the country.”

The minis first debuted at the Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California (April 23–26, 2026), where Post Malone was a headliner, and are set to hit participating retailers nationwide on May 4.

Unspoken Social Rules

Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer Brats

Smithfield Foods, a  global food company and the world’s largest pork processor and hog producer, has partnered with Pabst Blue Ribbon this summer and have introduced the world’s first (we think) Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer Brat.

Launched in April 2026, as part of  the company’s summer “grill-ready” lineup, The Smithfield & Pabst Blue Ribbon (PBR) Beer Brat is a limited-edition collaboration that infuses premium pork bratwurst with the smooth, signature taste of PBR American lager.

“As the weather gets warmer, we know that bold flavors are a must,” said Marianne Radley, managing director of marketing for Smithfield Foods. “This new bratwurst lineup, including the innovative Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer Brat, delivers premium, crave-worthy options that are easy to prepare and made for sharing.”

“Beer and brats have always belonged together,” added Kat Mata, Director of Culture Marketing. “We just teamed up with Smithfield to do it right.”
