Frankfurter-Flavored Hard Seltzers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Awesome Sauce: Bun Length is Made with Leftover Hot Dog Water

— July 4, 2022 — Lifestyle
Awesome Sauce: Bun Length will be the newest of the Awesome Sauce Hard Seltzers from Martin House Brewing Company and it takes the form of a 5.2% ABV hard seltzer made with the leftover water from 52 pounds of boiled frankfurters. This unusual beverage is said to taste just like a boozy hot dog and what started as an idea to use hot dogs in the making of beer turned into an unconventional concept for a hard seltzer.

Fittingly, the Texas brewery will be unveiling the unique hard seltzer at a local hot dog festival. The Celebration of Hotdogs is a destination for hot dog lovers and at the event, there will be an eating contest, food trucks, wiener dogs and more to accompany the unforgettable experience of trying Awesome Sauce: Bun Length for the first time.
