What Is The Truth Behind The Ingredient In Coors Light That Would Take Breath Away?

my boyfriend came home tonight intoxicated, and his breathing sounded as if he had bronchitis. His breathing was normal when he left. When I asked him about it, he said that someone at the bar told him that there is an ingredient in Coors Light that will take your breath away and make you have trouble breathing. Is there any truth to this?
