Coors Light accepts a misspelled ad with a new name
Coors Light now has a literal case of the Mondays.
Molson Coors Beverage Co. announced this week that Coors Light will be repackaged as “Mondays Light” for a limited time.
Coors Light appears to be making the most of its misspelling that appeared in a national ad campaign that debuted Monday.

The ad should have read “Mountain cold refreshment.” Instead, it said, “Mountain Cold Refershment.”
Coors Light acknowledged the error in a statement that began with the following sentence: “We had a case of Monday.”
“Coors Light would like to thank everyone for notifying us of the errors,” the statement continued.
“Mondays, am I right?”

The misspelled ad appeared in print publications such as The New York Times and on a giant digital billboard in New York’s Times Square.
Coors Light apparently absorbed the criticism and comical comments it received on social media, turning the mistake into an entirely new campaign tied to the upcoming Super Bowl ad.
