    Yes, because when I’m relaxing at the end of the day I NEED those hydrating electrolytes!!! White Claw: IT’S GOT WHAT PLANTS CRAVE!!!

        Idiocracy was a utopia compared to what we’re in store for. They had health care, an environment that wasn’t actively killing them, and a president that actually wanted to solve problems.

          I dunno, their environment could have been as bad as ours, and Biden perhaps “wants” to solve things but… Congress is what passes laws (same as that one - he asked people to do things and it was like talking to a brick wall, the difference being that bc it is a Hollywood movie, it was constrained to HAVE to show a good outcome). Good point about the healthcare - I forgot if it was socialized or for-profit in the show.

          As another reply brought up though:

      I guess there really was/will be a time machine somewhere.

      That documentary got here somehow, after all.

    I know it seems dumb but you could have this at a party as a non alcoholic option, and still “feel” like you are imbibing with the others. If you like the white claw flavors I guess.

      I think even better, with the electrolytes, is something you switch to between every few drinks if you’re drinking heavily. It should reduce your hangover and you still get to appear and taste like you’re drinking a white claw for whatever reason.

        I drink mindlessly and really fast so sometimes when I’m have vodka sodas(flavored seltzers) I’ll skip the vodka for a round and my brain could not tell the difference. I can only imagine this working (and being beneficial) for seltzer since it’s the only one that hydrates and isn’t adding more sugar.

      If you give a shit what other people think, order/make a tonic water with lime juice. Refreshing, and you won’t have drunk people pestering you to have a “real” drink with them all night…

    If it has 15 calories it can’t be just water. Maybe they removed alcohol, but it looks like everything else (possibly additional stuff to maintain similar taste was added) was kept.

      I was drinking Liquid Death for a while because I really liked their Mango Chainsaw seltzer and then one day I looked at the ingredients and found out why. They put agave nectar in it to sweeten it. They’re doing similar things here.

      I’ve never had one. I know it says white claw but which animal’s claw is white does it taste like? I’m not a animalogist so they might be expecting a little too much from me as a potential consumer.

      Do they squeeze the juice out of each claw or do they just blend them all together like animal bones in pet food?

      No, it’s non-alcoholic White Claw. Which is better than seltzer, somehow, so it’s more expensive.

        It’s 15 calories “better” than seltzer.

        Seems like a weird move. The soda water/seltzer market has gotten crowded in the last few years.

            Right, but non-alcoholic beer is good, because it tastes like hoppy goodness without the alcohol or calories.

            Whereas white claw does not taste good, and this has more calories than many (better) seltzers (which already don’t have alcohol). So it seems like a weird move.

            I assume they are just banking on their name recognition generating some sales, but I hope people go for some of the better options from smaller companies!

    I know so so many people who have gone Cali sober, including myself. It’s a particularly silly brand to see try to have a NA option but I’m also not suprised to see it based on my own anecdotal experiences of the market

    Guys,

    It’s a fucking can of liquid. Smartwater is doing the same thing with water. Are you really that fucking surprised that you think capitalism is surprising for a popular drinks among young people, which might I add you is actually good and better than drinking other shit people drink out of a can. I am talking about beer drinkers from a can.

    If this is another option for someone not to drink then give it to them. The rest of you need to find something better to do with your lives.
