    Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think hard Seltzer is technically classified as beer?

    It says “BEER” on the back of White Claw cans.

    Can you clarify your point?

      If I was making hard seltzer at scale, I’d consider two options:

      1. Cut some Everclear 97% and some flavorant into water, and throw 30psi of CO2 on for it a few days (expensive)

      2. Ferment some dextrose, rack it off the yeast cake, add some flavorant, and throw 30psi of CO2 on it for a few days (cheap)

      My hombrew club hated me.

        What you are doing probally does not sound as romantic as what they are doing. 🤣
