Tom Holland Tried To Buy His Own Non-Alcoholic Beer Brand At Target—And They Didn't Accept His ID

The Marvel star shared how he took a trip to several Targets before finding one that carried his non-alcoholic beer brand Bero—but then had trouble purchasing a case after his English ID wasn't accepted, until a "a really lovely employee" stepped in to help.

Actor Tom Holland has recently expanded into the non-alcoholic beer market—but his own product was nearly off-limits to him.

Holland found himself in a sticky situation when he recently traveled to several Target stores to find one that carried his non-alcoholic beer brand Bero. Just finding the stuff was challenge enough.


But then when he finally did find it, the Target staff refused to sell it to the baby-faced actor because they didn't accept his British ID.

Holland shared the mishap in a video on his Instagram Story. In it, he said that he'd already been to two Targets looking for the stuff with no luck. "Not the best marketing," he joked.

The third Target was the charm—he found the stuff right where it was supposed to be, prominently displayed on the end of one of the aisles. But then he ran into yet another snag.

"They wouldn't accept my ID because it's English and I couldn't prove my age!"

Thankfully, a kind employee stepped in and, in what sounds like a potentially illegal move, scanned their ID in lieu of the actor's. Surely there's a legal concession for buying booze for a movie star though, right? It's Tom Holland, Spider-Man himself!

Holland couldn't help but chuckle about the whole thing, of course.

“Kind of ironic that I wasn’t allowed to buy my own product!"

Even more so, given the reason he decided to create Bero. As he told People:

“When I ventured into the non-alcoholic world, I realized there was a void for a true, premium brand. I ultimately created Bero for myself because I was craving a product that helped me feel included.”

Sure, Tom, but only if you have proper ID! On social media, fans got a kick out of Holland's beer-buying mishap.






Many couldn't believe you need an ID to buy non-alcoholic beer in the first place. (It's because it often has trace amounts of alcohol in it.)



Of course, no Holland moment would be complete without the inclusion of his fiancée Zendaya, and Bero is no exception—kind of. Among the line's three flavors is one called Noon Wheat, a beer named after Zendaya's dog Noon. Aww.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
