Faygo Launches New 'Gold' Ginger Ale Flavor With Chance To Win 24K Gold Bars
DETROIT (WWJ) - Detroit's own Faygo is introducing its newest flavor with a contest that offers fans a chance to win a 24K gold bar.
Faygo Gold ginger ale joins more than 60 flavors in Faygo's beverage line. Gold is available now throughout Michigan in 24 oz and 2 liter bottles. Diet Faygo Gold is also available in 2 liter bottles.
"With a 105 year history of pop innovation, Faygo fans have come to expect new flavors that are bold and unique," Al Chittaro, executive vice president of Faygo Beverages, said in a statement. "Consumers are already voicing rave reviews for Faygo Gold, a rich, zippy ginger ale."
As if creating bubbly, sweet ginger ale wasn't enough, the beverage company is partnering with Tapper's Diamonds and Fine Jewelry and Tapper's Gold Exchange, to give a few lucky fans a "Pot of Gold" prize pack, which consists of a cauldron of Faygo Gold pop, T-shirts and a solid 24K gold bar.
From March 15 through March 29, Faygo fans are asked to take a photo of "what" or "who" is most valuable to them and upload the photo to Instagram with the hashtag, #FaygoGold.
The top three Instagram photos generating the most "likes" by 6 p.m. on Friday, March 29, will win. The winners will be announced on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter and will receive a "Pot of Gold" prize pack.
And it doesn't end there.
