We've done a lot of work in the beer world, with brands that have included Saint Archer, Primo, PBR, Guinness, June Lake Brewing and others.

We even contribute a column to the Craft Beer Attorney's B5 newsletter (our most recent one can be seen here: http://www.remedypr.com/blog/pr-planning-required-not-public-relations/.

That said, while we're pretty darn good at our jobs, this campaign from Budweiser is absolutely brilliant. Is it craft beer? Heck no. Budweiser isn't even owned by U.S. based company any longer.

Does that matter... well, not if you're Budweiser and want to drive both awareness and sales.

It'll take a mix of product (session IPA's and similar styles) unique flavors and above all, great marketing.
