Still widely known for its unique Beehive, wide-mouthed bottle, Mickey's is sometimes humorously referred to by college wags as "Mickey's Big Mouse," "big mouse" being a pun on the phrase "big mouth." The original packaging included Irish iconography with shamrocks, castle towers, and an arm holding a mace. Current packaging is more neutral, if still green, with an illustrated hornet icon on the cap. The wide mouthed bottles are known for their pictographic riddles under the cap. Enjoying a surge in popularity, due in part because of a sponsorship deal with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), Mickey's marketing is targeting a young, college-aged drinker, slightly left of mainstream and uses the current tagline, "Get Stung" always next to the hornet icon.
