Brite Side craft seltzer is an elevated hard seltzer experience from the award-winning brewing minds at Community Beer Co.

Legal Draft Clear Proof
Arlington's Legal Draft Beer Co brews a wide range of year round offerings like Accused Amber Lager & Hazeas Corpus, but it's their taproom only Clear Proof Seltzer Series that we're talking about because, you know, it's a hard seltzer list.

Martin House Cherry Baby
The Fort Worth brewery recently released this hard cherry seltzer which, believe it or not, isn't anywhere near the most adventurous or off-the-wall thing they've ever made (looking at you, Azathoth, with your squid ink & menthol), but it just might be the most refreshing (sorry, Salty Lady...we still love you).

Magic Brine is the real Pickle Hard Seltzer using the all-natural pickling brine of Willigan's Island from Lockhart, TX. Try it over ice, mixed in a cocktail, or straight from the can.
