It’s a real rags-to-riches story! Busch has named their newest executive officer, Ethan, as ‘Chief Tasting Officer’ for the beer brand’s new product, Dog Brew!

Last year, Busch released its first-ever product made not for fans, but for its fan’s dogs: Busch Dog Brew.

Ethan is known for inspiring those in his local community and will continue to inspire more as our official Dog Brew Chief Tasting Officer. Please give him a round of apPAWs! Thank you to all the pups who entered!”
