Leinenkugel's Spritzen is a first-of-its-kind "beer with a splash of seltzer" that offers all the crispness of beer with the low-calories, refreshing fruit flavors and better-for-you qualities of seltzer. The all-new trio introduces flavors like Grapefruit, Raspberry Lemon and Pineapple Strawberry, which come in at just 93 calories—less than leading hard seltzers—and no sugar or artificial ingredients. For summer sipping, Spritzen is being introduced in variety packs of 12 with all three flavors, as well as six-packs that contain only Grapefruit or a mix of the Raspberry Lemon and Pineapple Strawberry varieties.
As Katie Leinenkugel says, "There are plenty of beers on the market and a variety of seltzers entering the category, but nobody is offering the best of both worlds except us."
