Sprecher Brewing Company (Glendale, Wisconsin) has officially announced the release of Hard Watermelon as the newest addition to its line of Hard Sodas.

Created as a follow-up to the non-alcoholic Watermelon Soda that Sprecher Brewing Company released back in May, Hard Watermelon “is a mildly carbonated beverage that begins with a tantalizing watermelon bouquet, is loaded with ‘just sweet enough’ watermelon flavors, and has a dry finish.” Weighing in at an easy-drinking 4.2% ABV, Hard Watermelon supplies its drinker with “an amazingly refreshing low alcohol soda that is a perfect thirst quencher for summertime, or anytime really.”  Soda lovers can enjoy this new offering chilled, over ice, or as a fun new mixer in cocktails.

“Watermelon is a popular beverage flavor this season. After we rolled out our non-alcoholic Watermelon soda we had enthusiastic responses from customers; many inquired about a hard soda version. We saw an opportunity in the market for a low alcohol soda and decided to do a limited run.” said Sprecher president Jeff Hamilton.

Hard Watermelon is rolling off the bottling line this week and will enter distribution any day now.  You can expect to find this Limited Release Hard Soda available in 6-packs of 12 oz. bottles and on draft at select retailers, bars and restaurants located in Alabama, Florida, Wisconsin and throughout the rest of Sprecher’s distribution area.  Prost!
