Review: Bud Light Seltzer Hard Soda

Bud Light Seltzer Hard Soda will be released early January 2022.  I was able to get my hands on a 12 pack a little early.  Hard Soda seems like something our parents drank when they were younger, but the truth is the Hard Soda product category only goes back to 2012 when Tim Kovac created Not Your Fathers Root Beer at his Small Town Brewery in Wauconda Illinois.  This is not the first Anheuser Busch produced hard soda.  A-B launched Best Damn Root Beer in 2015 and followed that up with Best Damn Cherry Cola, and Best Damn Cream Soda.  At one time hard soda was a big deal.  All of the big boys invested big bucks to develop and promote their hard soda brands.  Miller-Coors with Henrys Hard Soda, and Boston Beer Company with their Coney Island brand.  Seagrams and Mikes also made hard soda.  So what is different this time around?  For starters Best Damn Root Beer weighed in with 239 calories and 11 carbs.  The new Bud Light Seltzer Hard Soda tips the scales with 100 calories and only 2 carbs.  It is made from a cold fermented cane sugar alcohol base with natural flavors, malted rice, and sucralose.  Sucralose is better know as Splenda.  Bud Light Seltzer Hard Soda is sold in a 4 flavor 12 can variety pack.
