New Belgium Fruit Smash Pineapple Punch

What the brewers say

“Made with real juice, Fruit Smash Super Hard Seltzer is a bolder, great tasting, high-ABV seltzer that will have you saying bye to your basic seltzer.”

What our panel thought

“A blast of citrus bubblegum smacks your nostrils. Vibrant tropical fruit punch flows through the mouth like a waterslide bouncing back and forth. Explosive pineapple and dry-hop notes round things out with a balanced sweetness. Drinkable and bold.”

What our editors thought

“Softly tropical pineapple nose leans into a sturdy but accessible sip, The pineapple flavor takes on a slightly mechanical tinge.”
