At first it was a few companies, now everyone is getting in on the game, even Sonic the burger joint has their name on one.

By women. That's who is driving this fad for hard seltzers. They got bored with their vodka and (club) soda.

The majority of advertisement is geared towards females. It's also the reason for the latest "virtue signal" surge and every other bullshit fad. Men don't consume advertised products the way women do and companies that are selling bullshit products have to sell to women to stay alive.

Booze contains a lot of calories. It is a weak attempt to reduce the caloric consumption while still drinking.

But at the end of the day, alcohol still contains calories. In fact the best way to reduce the caloric intake of your alcohal is to just select a lower alcohol by volume beverage.

Budweiser Select. 55 calories. 2.4% ABV.

Another good choice is to choose a beverage that you will tend to sip instead of down like water. Something bitter.

Yeah more broadly it is probably that. The craze kind of started with La Croix I think. I also don't think the sugar and soda industry is a fan. There was this fucking delicious Dr Pepper seltzer water. It was a rarity when it wasn't sold out, but for the last year I cannot find it anymore. I have to imagine seltzer waters are cutting in to corn syrup water profits. Big Soda destroyed my glorious Dr. Pepper water.

People don't like the taste of beer but men don't want to be seen drinking fruity drinks like wine coolers.

So "hard seltzer" is the manly altrrnative to beer.

Remember all liquor advertising is geared toward young first decade drinkers who equate their liquor with their image.

Its not manly in the least. Its for women and faggots.

I think it's just part of soydom. They used to be called queer beer.

There's always been something: hard lemonade, clear malt liquor, vodka n diet coke. Its for fags, women, and teenagers

Teens and young adults who drink should be beaten ruthlessly, but the state will call that child abuse(even though you're enforcing their laws for them).

Tbh i kinda like em. They are fairly refreshing and not overly sweet and sugary. Pretty good imo.

It's a carb free beer. It's good and it's keto.

[–] • 2 pts

People buy it. New and sells well. Why wouldn't they. No carbs or sugars. Or low sugars.

everyone that was normal before is becoming alcoholic so there must have been a dip in seltzer sales is my bet, could also just be market research gone awry who knows. i remember like 4 years ago most major grocery chains we carrying super hot peppers(1mil scoville) and i was like who the fuck would buy that. some things are just a forced fad

What is a fad, Alex?

hard seltzer has less ingredients than beer. probably, brewing beer costs more than making hard seltzer. that could be a reason. also, women don't drink a lot of beer.
