Colt 45 is a brand of lager or malt liquor in the US, introduced by National Brewing Company in the spring of 1963. Through a series of mergers and acquisitions, the National Brewing Company and its brands (including Colt 45) are today owned by the Pabst Brewing Company. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nytimes.com/1984/12/07/business/g-heilemann-to-acquire-pabst-for-69.3-million.html )〕 Colt 45 is available today in a multitude of packages and sizes. Cans are available in 12, 16 and 24 ounce packages and bottles are available in 7, 12, 16, 18, 22, 32, and 40 ounce packages. Cans are available in multi-packs including: 6, 12, 15, 18, 24, 30, 36, and 42 packs of 12 ounce cans. ==History== National Brewing Company introduced Colt 45 in 1963. Previously, the only major national brand of malt liquor was Country Club. The label was designed with a kicking horse and horseshoe, a reference to its "extra kick" compared to competing brands. Listed on the Pabst website as a "Fun Fact", Colt 45 was named after running back #45 Jerry Hill of the 1963 Baltimore Colts and not the .45 caliber handgun ammunition round. The label has a long-time advertising association with actor Billy Dee Williams, who has been seen in print ads, on billboards and in television ads for Colt 45 starting in the 1980s. The product's slogan during that era, as stated by Williams in his television commercials, was, "It works every time." Williams responded indifferently to criticism of his appearances in the liquor commercials. When questioned about his appearances he is alleged to have said, "I drink, you drink. Hell, if marijuana was legal, I'd appear in a commercial for that too." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Colt 45 (malt liquor)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
