It is not a stretch to say that alcohol historically fits somewhere under the umbrella of sex, drugs and rock and roll, so it shouldn't be a surprise that many musicians have tried to shift from rock to Amber Boch, if you will.
Singer Dave Matthews challenged himself to make “Dreaming Tree Wines.”
Motörhead is offering “Bastards Lager,” distributed straight out of hell.
Mumford & Sons, who didn’t try very hard on the name, are behind “Lewes Stopover Brew,” sold at the Lewes Music Festival.
And Iron Maiden has “Trooper,” named after the song.
Beyond beer, Marilyn Manson launched Mansinthe in 2007.
Pharrell Williams made “Qream With a Q" liqueur.
P. Diddy marketed his Ciroc vodka by playing a drinking game with Mark Wahlberg on Ellen. Ciroc sold more than two million cases in the U.S. last year.

Take that Hanson.
