Stone Brewing, a leader in the alcohol space, recently announced the launch of a new hard seltzer exclusively sold in glass bottles. Dubbed Buenavida, the new offering was a "result of an internal challenge at Stone to craft a line of hard seltzers that actually taste good." The beverage is carefully crafted with high-quality sugar cane and superior flavors.
Arriving in custom-molded, clear 12oz glass bottles, the Buenavida is available in four mouthwatering flavors -- Watermelon & Lime, Mango, Black Cherry, and Mandarin. Each beverage is sugar-free, gluten-free, 100 calories, and with a 5% ABV.
Stone Brewing CEO Maria Stipp explains, "We thought through each detail to guarantee that everything about this would be ‘buena’ - a truly enjoyable experience. While this is a new innovation for Stone, it reflects the same really high standards of attention and quality found in all our award-winning beers."
