San Antonio pickle lovers now have way to add some salty twang to their alcohol consumption. Shiner Beer has released a new hard seltzer called Juicy Dill Pickle Straight Shooter.
According to tasting notes, the new, limited edition seltzer is made with real pickles from Shiner brewmaster Jimmy Mauric’s family recipe, boasting a blend of sweet and sour dill pickle with notes of dill, coriander and spice.
As if the idea of a savory, pickle-flavored seltzer wasn’t weird enough, the company also added an interactive angle featuring an animated pickle. Each can of the special-edition seltzer features a QR code to lead folks to a website where they can ask an animated pickle character “their burning questions.”
The pickle-powered, 4.5% ABV fizz fest is in local grocery, convenience and liquor stores now, available in six packs of 12-ounce slim cans.
