| Wopper, Fries, and Beer Burger King will unveil plans to sell beer and burgers at a Whopper Bar — a new BK concept to compete with casual dining restaurants — in Miami Beach's tourist-heavy South Beach. The South Beach Whopper Bar is scheduled to open in mid-February. A brew at the new Whopper Bar — served in special aluminum bottles to keep them extra cold — fetches $4.25. Or, order beer as part of a Whopper combo and your bill will be $7.99 — roughly $2 more than the same combo meal with a fountain drink. Sorry, Miller - I'ts the Same Old Cap Miller Lite's "Taste Protector" caps and lids are features in their ad campaigns but they have beer forced to acknowledge that the tops don't use new technology. As such, the National Advertising Division Council of BBB is demanding the ads be pulled. MillerCoors has been saying the new golden tops and lids on Miller Lite, which has been in a sales slump, have a special seal that "locks out air and locks in that Great Pilsner Taste." In reality it's the same old can with the same old top. Shocking, shocking that an advertisement isn't telling the truth.. |
