According to its promotional materials, Coors has brewed its iconic American lager with Rocky Mountain spring water since 1873. A hundred and seventeen years later, the company decided to skip a few steps. Tapping into the booming bottled-water market, the beer conglomerate introduced Rocky Mountain Sparkling Water — but unwisely kept the Coors logo front and center on the label, making it impossible not to worry about driving home after a heavy dose of H2O. Sales for the water, which came in original, lemon-lime and cherry flavors, did poorly. The beverage was eventually discontinued.

Production was discontinued prior to 2015.
