SAVE GAY BARS

It is the missn of Carola Bear Lodge to provi opportuni for s members to socialize a safe hospable settg; to project a posive image and crease awarens of the bear subculture: and to ntribute to the betterment of the gay muny and society as a whole. We also feel that is important to prent a posive image to the gay muny and the muny at large. The gay bear "scene" has moved om subculture to the gay mastream the past few years, and the Carolas this is no different, thanks part to large-sle events like Bear Hunt Weekend.

At this pot, beard, hky guys domate much of Carolas gay party ns or excursns, om the mountas to the beach, bears flock om all over to go to the awome "bear ns. Save Gay Bars.

Des om now, I’ll look back on my g out and my g of age this cy and I’ll be thankful for Gay Bars – where I have shared lghs and gossip wh iends, doled out dollar bills to drag performers and, on more than one ocsn, shed dnken tears after a strsful week.

In a sea of nned cktails, Gay Water wants to stand out. In other words, where Bud Light has buckled unr prsure as bigotry grows agast the LGBTQ+ muny, Gay Water’s creator Spencer Hodson wants his new boozy brand to be the anthis of that.

GAY BEAR VIOS: THE BT OF THE BT

“The key issue that Bud Light tapped to was the fact that they didn’t unrstand their re dience and know enough about them,” Hodson, a gay man, told CNN about the ntroversy that began when the Anhser-Bch beer brand sent fluencer Dylan Mulvaney a n of beer. Gay Water, however, is out and proud. The nned cktail is named after a lloquialism given to the popular mixed drk (vodka and soda) orred at bars by the gay muny.

“Puttg a product wh the word gay the tle is reprentatn self,” which he hop reclaims the word om the negativy ’s sometim associated wh.

BEAR (GAY CULTURE)

He thought of creatg Gay Water about a year ago while on a vatn wh his iend that had got a job wh the beverage dtry. The two chatted about the limed amount of gay people wh , and wh Hodson burnt out om his tradnal day job tech, started the nned cktail. Hodson built up a strong social media followg on TikTok and Instagram durg Covid-19 and is g some of the money om that (as well as om iends and fay) to help fund Gay Water.

“Gay is an umbrella term and the ia behd the brand is to be as clive as possible, which means we want alli, we want straight people to be part of this muny we’re buildg.”. For now, Gay Water is sold largely onle (wh a few retailers) and four sugar-ee flavors — watermelon, lime, peach and grapeu — at lnch. Gay Water might not have the ep pockets pared to s petors, like Whe Claw, but “even at small sle, pani of many siz are havg succs makg spir-based seltzers and premixed cktails,” Bryan Roth, an analyst for Feel Goods Company and edor of the alhol beverage newsletter, Sightl+, told CNN.

“There’s lots of space the spir-based seltzer tegory which Gay Water n play, pecially if the brand n offer a cultural or emotnal nnectn that will feel more excg than the prospect of another peapple-flavored vodka seltzer om natnal or ternatnal rporatns,” Roth said. Of urse, other drks e the word “gay,” too, cludg Gay Beer and So Gay Rosé, Hodson noted, which are also tryg to reach the queer muny and offer them an alternative the straight-domated space.

The gays have been g the ter to get laid sce AOL lnched chat rooms to Friendster, but wh Craigslist and Manhunt g their formulas, what is a homo wh a hard-on to do now?

For the gays, the efulns of any technology has always been measured on how will help them get laid.
