0:12.4 | Listeners know that we're big fans of Bud Light Seltzer. It's a delicious hard Seltzer from Bud Light, but it has no Bud Light in it. |
0:19.8 | That's right. Each one is just 100 calories, 5% alcohol by volume and gluten free. |
0:24.6 | The retro summer pack has been our go-to drink. It really has. We've been lucky enough to spend some time with family, at the lake, and doing all those summer things. |
0:32.5 | Never far away is our retro summer pack. I mean, I love that summer ice. It's so hard to beat that. I know you like the Blue Razzberry. |
