My other half likes his craft artisan ales/beers.
Myself - well I don't drink.

However I think a few of my female friends would like the idea (but not too sweet though).

Do men not drink from cans that are gold?

or while getting ready before a pub/grub/club meet up.

Very posh. My sister and her mates used to neck Carlsberg Specials whilst getting dolled up. They're all old grownups now.

M&S using the word “porn” to market to women. My, times have changed.

in my local liquor store they have lots of spritzers at around 5%. They are in white cans with silver writing. They are popular. I know a celiac who drinks them.

there are a lot of gluten free beers in North America, too. I was chatting to a chap at the bar last time I was in the UK who was gluten intolerant and he couldn’t believe such a thing existed. That could be a good seller for you.

My OH drinks expensive G&TS and expensive single malts. I prefer a pint of Adnams Blackshore stout but will make do with Guinness. Don't reckon he'll be into anything sparkly!

In europe Union sell a whole range of Radlers from 2% to 0%. Basically posh shandy in a can. Very nice, refreshing but not overly sweet. Shame they aren't over here.

Exactly
Like a refreasher . I used to love Shandy Bass as its nearly beer
M&S havent got back to me yet ,but i still think there is a market for a non gender specific, Vegan , Guten free, low / lowish alcohol drink. Something for those long hot summer evenings . Less calories than a can of coke , sweet but not cloying .
Maybe Gin in a Tin is the way to go , but made long , so a 500ml drink with a single shot worth of Gin in it . 25ml shot of 40% alc vol would come out around 2% in a 500ml can , bit more in a 440ml.
Something to drink that will last maybe an hour , and you can still function normally the next day , as with that little alcohol on that much mixer de-hydration wouldnt be an issue. Still ge a buzz from it though.

I don't think those low alcohol fruity beers sell that well in Europe. Not that many on the supermarket shelves.
