The Skinny on Austin Beerworks Hop Water

What is Hop Water?

That kinda depends on who you ask, but pretty much all hop waters are some form of hop-flavored sparkling water.


What does it taste like?

Lots of hop waters we've tried taste like drinking a bag of raw hops - pretty vegetal and "green". We wanted ours to taste like the juicy, fruity hop character often found in Hazy IPAs. We think we nailed it.


How did you manage that?

Lots of experience, experiments, and some Top Secret hop science (really).


I got some and it's kind of hazy. Is is supposed to look like that?

Oh no, call poison control!!!! Just kidding, it's hazy for the same reason Hazy IPAs are hazy - a saturated suspension of hop-derived compounds. It's flavor and aroma you can see!


Does it have any alcohol?

None! Zilch! Zero! Nada!


How many calories?

See above.


Gluten? Carbs?

See two above.


Is Hop Water healthier than water water?

I don't think we're allowed to say that. But here's some science about hoppy health:

Anti-inflammatory

Antimicrobial

Antioxidant

Stress Relief


When should I drink it?

You can drink it in a bar. You can drink it in a car. You can drink it with your mother. You can drink it with a lover. Whether you're a son or daughter, there's no bad time for Hop Water. Orange.


Will it make my pee smell like hops?

If it does, it means you drank enough to put our kids through college. Thank you for the support.
