The greatest drinking game of all time finally has its own alcohol called Pong Beer. The most popular sport to play on college campuses, Beer Pong has a cult following due to its combination of intense competition and excessive drinking.
Pong Beer is brewed specifically for the red cups, and as most beers it's described as "exceptionally crisp, smooth, and refreshing." The red, white and blue cans are sold in packs of thirty and each box comes with two ping pong balls. Pong Beer is currently only available on the east coast of the United States, but will soon be available for purchase in California and Texas.
Currently no other drinking game has its own specially made alcohol. Perhaps it won't be long before drinkers see beer specifically made for flip cup.
