Former Cowboys QB Troy Aikman Brews Up New Light Beer

Troy Aikman is brewing up a new endeavor.

The Hall of Famer, former Dallas Cowboys quarterback, and longtime NFL broadcaster is jumping into the beer business.

On Tuesday, Aikman posted a video on Instagram announcing Eight, a 90-calorie light beer.
It will be released starting next month in Texas.

The light lager aimed at “health-conscious” drinkers uses organic grains and is considered an all-malt beer, meaning it has no corn or rice.

In case you don’t realize the connection, the beer’s name, Eight, pays tribute to Aikman’s jersey number through college and with the Cowboys.
