Keystone (beer brand)
Keystone beer is a product of the Coors Brewing Company in Golden, Colorado. It was first introduced in Chico, California in September of 1989. Due to its relatively low price, it is popular among college-aged individuals. Keystone can be found in can, keg, and occasionally bottled form.
Four varieties of Keystone have existed:
- Keystone, found with a bright red label
- Keystone Premium, found with a maroon label
- Keystone Light, found with a blue label
- Keystone Ice, "ice brewed ale", found with a black label
Though Keystone and Keystone Premium exist, they are rare. The "Light" and "Ice" versions of the beer are far more prevalent and readily available for retail across the United States. Keystone Ice contains an alcohol content of 5.9% ABV, while Keystone and Keystone Premium have a cleaner, smoother taste than the other varieties. Keystone Light has an alcohol content 4.2% ABV.
