ChromaticDeath Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) The following is a list of popular brand-names and companies in the GTA universe it may be useful to know. Original list compiled by @Silverfish in 2019 but never completed or expanded upon. I'll be doing that! I hope this is a useful resource for anyone. Good for figuring out what your character drinks or smokes. ALCOHOL Spoiler BEER - WINE - LIQUOR Spoiler Patriot: "Est. 1776." An American beer modeled after Samuel Adams. Pisswasser: "You're in for a good time." A "German" beer modeled after Budweiser. Logger: "The beer that brought the forest down." Modeled after Coors Light. Stronzo: "Birra forte d'Italia." An Italian red beer closely resembling Peroni and Nastro Azzurro. Pride Brew: "Swallow me" - A Jamaican beer based on Lionheart Stout. Dusche Gold: " Let it rain, let it pour, das Ist gut Ja?" A German Import beer. Pilsner stand-in. Blarney's Stout: "Making your mouth feel lucky" - An Irish Stout beer, based on Guinness. Barracho Cervezas: "¡Es Playtime!" Mexican beer closely resembling Corona & Modelo. A.M. Beer: A Japanese beer based on Asahi Beer. Benedict Light Beer: "Count your Blessings" - A Danish light beer. Based on Carlsberg. Jakey's Beer: "Drink Outdoors With Jakey's" An "Australian" beer based on Foster's. Spoiler Marlowe Vineyards: A white or red wine crafted locally at the Marlowe Vineyards near Route 68. I encourage roleplaying this wine as the vineyard is on the playable game area. Rockford Hills Reserve: A Pinot Noir, presumably aged. Not much known about this one. Syrah: Appears to be some sort of Red Moscato. Taillores: French wine stand-in. Looks like white wine. Two Roosters: Grenache red wine. Vinewood Red: Looks like another Red Moscato of some kind. Spoiler Borgeoix: "Fit for a prince." - French cognac based on Courvoisier. Cardiaque: French company. Sells cigarettes as well as "Five star brandy." Cherenkov Vodka: "Warms you to the core." Russian vodka based on Smirnoff and Absolut. Nogo Vodka: "The premium vodka from the heartland, not the motherland." An American Vodka based on McCormick's. Ragga Rum: Jamaican rum. Spiced, presumably. The Mount: American Bourbon Whiskey. Tequilya: Mexican Tequila. Based on Jose Cuervo. CIGARETTES & TOBACCO Spoiler Redwood: "Be a real man. Smoke Redwood" Marlboro Cigarettes. Incredibly popular American cigarette brand. Grand 69: Not much is known about this one. May be based on Black Death cigarettes. Debonaires: "A fresh American taste." Main competitor of Redwood Cigarettes. For "sophisticated" smokers. Cardiaques: A French cigarette manufacturer. Makes Cigarillos (small, thin cigars) as well as cigarettes. As boujee as smoking gets. Athena 200s: "You're a goddess, smoke like one too." A women's cigarette brand based on 'fashion' cigarettes such as Eve or Virgina Slims. CoK Turkish Blend: A cigarette most likely based off of Camel brand smokes. Estancias Cigars: Cigars. GTA V's default cigar brand, Nothing special. SNACKS & SOFT DRINKS Spoiler Snacks: Captain's Log - Large Milk-Chocolate bar. Earthquakes: "The Treat that hits the Spot!" Based on the Crunch bar. Egochaser: Tropical, Caramel, and Chocolate flavor energy bars. P's&Q's: M&Ms. Release: Based on Wrigley's chewing gum. Sweet Nothings: Based on Sweethearts. Zebrabar: Half white, half dark chocolate. All delicious. Soft drinks: Sprunk: "Overclock your life" Sprite Soda. Ecola: "Deliciously Infectious!" Coca-Cola. Orang-O-Tang: Orange Crush soda. Rainé: Water modelled after French (Savoyard) water Evian, with elements taken from Glaceau Smartwater. (thanks @Valmont) CELL PHONES Spoiler Most generally don't really care about roleplaying lore-friendly with cellphones, but this is useful to know anyway. Ifruit: Apple. Specifically, iOS devices. Drone: Android. Drone's also presumably encompassing Samsung. Whiz: Sprint Wireless stand-in. Celltowa: Motorola Cellphones. WEAPON MANUFACTURERS Spoiler Same situation as cellphones, most generally won't care if you don't roleplay these exact "lore" brands. Hawk & Little: American manufacturer based on Smith and Wesson.
