Bowser Beer uses PET bottles from Amcor Rigid Plastics
For dog owners who love to spoil their canines, Bowser Beer from 3 Busy Dogs, Seattle, WA, has emerged as a popular pet product that has enjoyed strong national growth. Sales for the fun and healthy drink alternative - packaged in lightweight, shatter-resistant 12-ounce polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles from Amcor Rigid Plastics (amcor.com) - have tripled in the last three years.
The explosive growth for the non-carbonated, non-alcoholic drink, created by founder Jenny Brown in 2008, mirrors the strong demand for pet products across the U.S. “The product just resonates with beer drinkers and dog lovers who do almost everything with their dogs,” says Brown, a dog-loving entrepreneur who started her business first making healthy dog pretzels. “People take their dogs everywhere and do everything with them and they want to treat them and include them in their life.”
