Review: White Claw Hard Seltzer Surf Variety Pack
Mark Anthony Brands has just released another hard seltzer variety pack. While my first thought is this must be White Claw’s fourth standard hard seltzer variety pack. I feel there must be a reason this is not named White Claw Variety Pack 4. White Claw has not yet had a press release so I’m a little curious what awaits me with White Claw Surf. White Claw also produces the higher octane White Claw Hard Seltzer Surge, and White Claw Hard Seltzer Iced Tea variety packs. If you are wondering why they haven’t released a hard seltzer lemonade, they have. They just piggybacked on the worlds most famous hard lemonade product brand with their Mikes Hard Lemonade Seltzer.
