Garage Beer Adding Light Bucket & Lime Bucket 24-Packs / 12-oz Bottles

This morning brings some interesting and highly shareable packaging news from Garage Beer in Columbus, Ohio, as the brand prepares to roll out two new large‑format offerings designed for warm‑weather drinking, tailgates, and easy grab‑and‑go convenience. You’re looking at the upcoming Lime Bucket and Light Bucket releases, both of which will be hitting shelves next week in brand‑new 24‑can packs.

These expanded 24‑pack formats continue Garage Beer’s push into value‑driven, high‑volume packaging, perfect for fans who want a crisp, refreshing lager option that’s built for sharing. Lime Bucket brings the brewery’s signature light lager profile with a bright, citrus‑forward twist, while Light Bucket delivers the classic, ultra‑drinkable Garage Beer experience in a larger, more economical package.

The new packaging is expected to begin distribution next week, giving retailers and consumers a fresh way to stock up ahead of spring and summer. With the growing demand for approachable, low‑ABV, easy‑drinking lagers, these 24‑can “Bucket” packs position Garage Beer to compete directly in the convenience‑store, party‑pack, and outdoor‑drinking segments.

As Garage Beer continues to expand its footprint across Ohio and beyond, these new Lime Bucket 24‑packs and Light Bucket 24‑packs highlight the brand’s commitment to simple, refreshing beer presented in formats that match how people actually drink—by the cooler, by the case, and with friends.

Stay tuned for more packaging updates, distribution details, and new product releases as Garage Beer continues to grow its lineup.

I’ve also added the new 12-oz stubby bottles being packaged by City Brewing in La Crosse, Wisconsin.

About Garage Beer:
