White Claw Hard Seltzer Blackberry 19.2OZ

White Claw Hard Seltzer Blackberry 19.2OZ is a gluten-free hard seltzer featuring natural blackberry flavor at 5% ABV in a single-serve 19.2oz can. As the flagship format from one of the two brands controlling roughly 75% of the U.S. hard seltzer market, this oversized can delivers the same sugar-fermented base that distinguished White Claw from traditional malt beverages when it launched in 2016.

Quick Facts: ABV: 5%  |  Origin: United States  |  Style: Hard Seltzer  |  Producer: Mark Anthony Brewing (Mark Anthony Brands)

Production & Heritage

White Claw is produced by Mark Anthony Brewing, a subsidiary of Mark Anthony Brands founded by Anthony von Mandl. The company operates a manufacturing facility in Glendale, Arizona, and a distribution center in Hillside, New Jersey. Unlike traditional beer, the alcohol base begins with a fermented sugar solution composed of roughly 51% sugar along with yeast, nutrients, water, and trace amounts of malted gluten-free grains. This fermented base is then clarified, diluted with carbonated water, and blended with natural blackberry flavoring — a process that results in a lighter, cleaner-tasting product than grain-based alternatives.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Light effervescence carries a zesty, slightly fruity lift. Subtle berry aromatics emerge without any heavy sweetness or artificial candy character.

Taste: The entry is crisp and clean, with carbonation hitting immediately. Mid-palate, ripe blackberry flavor develops, balancing natural sweetness against a tart edge that keeps it from veering into syrupy territory. The overall impression is refreshing and straightforward.

Finish: Short and dry, with a lingering hint of berry tartness. The carbonation scrubs the palate clean, leaving little residual sweetness behind.

How to Drink White Claw Blackberry

The 19.2oz format is designed for drinking straight from the can, well chilled. Pouring over ice in a tall glass also works if you want to extend the session slightly. For mixed drinks, the blackberry profile lends itself well to a Seltzer Spritz — topped with a splash of prosecco and a lemon twist for added brightness. It also functions in a Berry Mule, substituting for ginger beer alongside fresh lime and a shot of vodka for a lighter riff on the classic. A Blackberry Paloma-style serve, mixing the seltzer with a measure of blanco tequila and fresh grapefruit juice, plays nicely off the berry tartness.

Best For

• Outdoor gatherings like cookouts, tailgates, or beach days where a single large-format can is more convenient than multiple bottles
• Low-ABV sessions when you want flavor without the heaviness of beer or wine
• Gluten-free drinkers seeking a widely available flavored option
• Stocking a cooler for casual entertaining without committing to a full variety pack
