(Herb) - Corona has long branded themselves as the ideal beach beer. So it only makes sense that they would embrace another notoriously beach-worthy product: weed. Needless to say, summer just leveled up. 

Constellation Brands, Corona’s parent company, will soon be releasing marijuana-infused drinks, which they intend to roll out in countries that have federal approval for marijuana-based products. So far, things are looking good for Canada, where legal-weed legislation slated for 2018 will make it the second country in the world with fully-legalized recreational and medicinal marijuana. Constellation’s new weed-infused beverages will undoubtedly bolster the country’s bourgeoning marijuana-tourism industry, encouraging many to visit from states where weed is still prohibited, as well as international travelers who are sure to see the country as the new Amsterdam.

Constellation Brands is the first major beer company to join forces with the marijuana industry, a market that most beer retailers have come to see as new competition.
