Hard Seltzer ABV And Calories Snapshot
ABV-driven calorie spread across 275 tracked hard seltzersHard seltzer is the third-largest category on the site at 275 tracked cans, behind only beer and canned cocktails, and carbs barely move within it - the whole category sits between 0g and 5g, averaging 2.0g. Calories are a different story: White Claw 70's lineup comes in at 70 calories on 3.7% ABV, while the 8% ABV lines - White Claw Surge, Truly Unruly - triple that to 220 calories on almost the same 1g-to-4g carb count. The top-scoring cans in the category, like Corona Hard Seltzer and Dos Equis Ranch Water Lime Seltzer, land in between at 90 calories and 4.5% ABV. If carbs are the only thing you're checking in this category, you're not checking the number that actually moves.
