Remarkableriots Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 There's no whiskey in mini bottles of Fireball, so customers are suing for fraud WWW.NPR.ORG Customers began wondering why small bottles of Fireball were being sold in places that typically don't sell liquor in many states, such as gas stations and grocery stores. I feel bad recommending those to people not realizing it wasn't the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remarkableriots Posted January 31, 2023 Author Share Posted January 31, 2023 The convenience store I worked at sold liquor but that was because it was in Nevada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmugPrick Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Hasnt it been common knowledge for years that you dont drink fireball to get a buzz? Id argue that it isnt even whiskey. Just syrupy crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should feel bad for recommending anyone drink Fireball, but don't feel bad about the mini bottles. This entire controversy is stupid. There are two mini bottles. One that says it's whiskey and another that says it's a malt beverage. If someone doesn't notice the big ABV percentage isn't the same, that's on them for not reading labels. Shocker. The malt liquor isn't whiskey. Who'd a thunk it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd only mention it when someone asked for the 200 ml Fireball bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost_MH Posted February 9, 2023 Share Posted February 9, 2023 Just now, Remarkableriots said: I'd only mention it when someone asked for the 200 ml Fireball bottle. Yeah, and there is a 200ml Fireball with whiskey. They make three 200ml bottles. One that says whiskey and has 33% ABV, one that says malt beverage with 16.5%, and one with wine that's 21%. I'm pretty sure they only exist because some gas stations and convenience stores can only sell beer and malt liquor while some grocers can only sell wine.

Nevada doesn't limit what liquor you can sell at gas stations/convenience stores. We also sold it 24/7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You misled nobody; you just recommended a shit drink. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
