Big Sky is making their own White Claw now

also can we talk about liquid death

And it comes in huckleberry, of course.

Do let me know if you’ve tried it. I for one wholeheartedly embrace our Fancy Nonalcoholic Seltzer overlords. La Croix and Polar for daytime. Spindrift tallboys (which use real added fruit puree) when I’m feeling spendy at Lucky’s. Dry Soda when I feel like a debutante at Good Food Store.

Sadly White Claw and its related spiked seltzer brethren mess with me if I drink it on an empty stomach—it’s tasty but gives me a buzz, a headache and a bloated stomach all within 45 seconds flat—and paradoxically it doesn’t pair well with food. Can you imagine a lovely filet mignon and a champagne flute of Mango White Claw?

I love a canned seltzer, but I’m waiting for the day when we find out all these various seltzers, alcoholic and non-, give us some godawful cancer of the pubes or something. As long as I never have to switch to Liquid Death, the “extreme” canned water that promises to “Murder Your Thirst” and uses language on its packaging that pushes the premise way past hilariousness into “wow, someone needs to get checked out by a mental health professional.”

(Liquid Death is not in Montana yet as far as I know but I am always ready with a hot take on novelty beverages! Such as a CAN OF VIOLENT WATER.)

Here’s a pic I found of the can on Twitter:

Anyway! I leave you with this wonderful barroom conversation piece: Montana, and Bozeman especially, drink several times more White Claw per capita than anywhere else.
