The Cowboy legend has launched a beer brand called, ‘Eight’, and amongst the fallout of Bud Light’s Dylan Mulvaney fiasco, he is reminding Americans that he and his brand are proud to be American.
Aikman can be quoted as saying about his beer,
There are a lot of beer brands out there that are trying to cash in on this holiday by slapping an American flag on their package. Regardless of whether or not they are truly American.

In a recent interview with Yahoo Finance, Aikman doubled down on this statement, and can be quoted as saying,
I’m very proud, of course, to be an American as so many other people are, and I know there’s a lot of beer brands out there that put an American flag on their package and claim to be American, but they’re not. We’ve tried to be very authentic to who and what we are, and that’s been pretty much our branding and our messaging throughout, as it is for this 4th of July holiday
