The Hartford Courant reports that Anheuser-Busch InBev has bowed to the wishes of more than a dozen state Attorneys General and agreed “to reduce the alcohol content on its fruity malt beverage, Tilt, from 12 percent to 8 percent.”
Tilt has been described as a “binge in a can” beverage, combining alcohol content with a fruity taste that is particularly appealing to underage drinkers.
Other products said to be of concern are Pabst’s Colt 45 "Blast" fruity malt beverage, as well as Phusion Projects' "Four Loko" and United Brands' "Joose."
