"Baked with 100% real cheese, each bite of the new Cheez-It Coors Light Beer Cheese flavored crackers delivers the classic Rocky Mountain taste of Coors Light with a savory, tangy sauce profile and toasted spices," the news release continued.
The new crackers represent the Cheez-It brand's first beer partnership, the company says.
"Cheez-It was the perfect partner to help pull this off," said Matt Carpenter, vice president of marketing for Coors Family of Brands, in the news release. "Made with 100% real cheese, their crackers are the ultimate canvas to capture our crisp, clean notes in a baked-to-perfection way, elevating the entire tailgating experience."
Cheez-It teased the new cracker flavor in an Instagram post.
