White Claw Hard Seltzer Black Cherry 19.2OZ

White Claw Hard Seltzer Black Cherry 19.2OZ is a gluten-free hard seltzer featuring black cherry flavor in a 19.2 oz single-serve can at 5% ABV. As one of the flagship flavors from the brand that helped define the hard seltzer category, Black Cherry remains among the most popular expressions in the White Claw lineup, built on Mark Anthony Group’s proprietary BrewPure® fermentation process.Quick Facts: ABV: 5%  |  Origin: United States  |  Style: Hard Seltzer  |  Producer: Mark Anthony Group (Mark Anthony Brewing)Production & HeritageWhite Claw is produced by Mark Anthony Brewing, with production facilities in Glendale, Arizona; Columbia, South Carolina; and Hillside, New Jersey. The liquid starts with a gluten-free malted alcohol base created through the company’s proprietary BrewPure® process, which combines sugar, water, yeast, nutrients, and trace amounts of malted gluten-free grains to yield what the company describes as the cleanest-tasting alcohol base possible. That neutral base is then blended with carbonated seltzer water and natural black cherry flavoring, resulting in a 5% ABV beverage with 100 calories per 12 oz serving equivalent.Tasting NotesAroma: An unmistakable cherry note leads immediately, calling to mind ripe stone fruit with a faint suggestion of maraschino sweetness. The carbonation carries the aroma upward cleanly, with minimal malt character detectable on the nose.Taste: The entry is light-bodied and semi-dry, with effervescent carbonation hitting the palate first. Mid-palate brings a juicy black cherry flavor that reads as genuine stone fruit rather than artificial candy, accompanied by subtle berry undertones. A tart, bracing quality emerges toward the peak, giving the sip structure beyond simple sweetness.Finish: The finish is short and crisp, with a mild citrus-like brightness that lingers briefly before the palate resets. There is no heavy residual sweetness — the seltzer base keeps everything clean and dry.How to Drink White Claw Black CherryThe 19.2 oz tallboy format is designed for direct, chilled drinking straight from the can — no glassware required, though pouring over ice with a lime wedge can sharpen the cherry notes. Beyond drinking it straight, this flavor works well as a mixer in several simple builds.
Seltzer Sangria: Combine with fresh berries, sliced stone fruit, and a splash of orange juice for a low-ABV punch that stays refreshing.
Cherry Paloma Riff: Mix with fresh grapefruit juice and a pinch of salt to play the tart cherry against bitter citrus.
Black Cherry Spritz: Pour over ice with a measure of Aperol and a lemon twist — the seltzer’s dryness balances the bittersweet liqueur.
