The realities of the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in the postponement of any large gatherings, including weddings. To help lessen the blow for couples who were looking forward to tying the knot, Busch Beer is giving away a year's worth of beer.
Couples who are celebrating safely — either by running to city hall to say "I do" or having a virtual wedding — or postponing until a safer date, can now take solace in the "the gift of Busch" and focus on what really matters.
To enter the contest, couples whose wedding plans have changed in 2020 simply need to post a photo of themselves on social media explaining how they’re still planning to celebrate along with the hashtags #BuschWeddingGift and #Sweepstakes.
