Kingsford now makes a charcoal called "Beercoal." Yup, charcoal made with beer. What does it do, make your steak or ribs taste like hops?

And that review also says
If I want beer to go with barbecue, I'll just have a beer, or beer can chicken. Have never liked Pringles.

And that review also says
And just in case you need one more item to bring to your summer barbecues, in April, Miller Lite also announced it's partnering with Pringles on two summer flavors: Beer Can Chicken and Grilled Beer Brat Pringles, both of which seem like the perfect snacks to enjoy while grilling over your Beercoal.

You As a charcoal griller, that honestly sounds amazing. I checked, and near me it's only available in Sam's Club, and I'm not a member. Amazon has for $39.98, ugh.

They make it to make the smoke taste like Miller Lite.
Why not just sell urine-soaked briquettes?
