TG-010 The One With The Fighting Spirit
Modelo Especial continues to absolutely dominate as a lager, but is it so successful that we can call it the new domestic lager of choice? On this episode of The Gist, I\u2019m joined as always by Lead Sightlines reporter Kate Bernot, along with special guest, freelance writer, and Good Beer Hunting contributor Jerard Fagerberg to talk about how Constellation Brands has grown Modelo to a 200 million case brand and what that means for the domestic beer category at large. Plus, we look at the latest c-store numbers\u2014specifically, how cider is performing\u2014and why combining \u201clow\u201d and \u201cno\u201d alcohol options into one group doesn\u2019t really make much sense. I\u2019m Beth Demmon, and you\u2019re listening to The Gist.\xa0
