Natural Light Seltzer
Remember Natty Light, the cheap beer you used to drink in college? Their parent company, Anheuser-Busch, now sells a hard seltzer under the Natural Light name. This line of alcoholic fizzy waters is also marketed toward college students, as, according to CNN, it costs about 20 percent less than leading competitors and is sold in bulk 24-packs. Natural Light Seltzer, which comes in two flavors (Aloha Beaches, a mango/peach blend, and Catalina Lime Mixer, black cherry/lime combo), clocks in at 130 calories and 6 percent alcohol by volume per can.
Smirnoff Seltzer
For those who want to hold onto summer just a little bit longer, set your sights on Smirnoff Seltzer. The available flavors are summer in a can: cranberry lime, watermelon, raspberry rosé, berry lemonade, and piña colada. These seltzers are only 90 calories per can with 4.5 percent alcohol by volume. And there's zero sugar to boot.
Truly Hard Seltzer
White Claw's biggest competitor would have to be Truly Hard Seltzer — and it makes sense why so many people would also love this brand. Truly is available in a huge variety of flavors (13!), including wild berry, passion fruit, and pomegranate. At 100 calories and 1 gram of sugar, with 5 percent alcohol by volume, Truly is a low-cal (yet still totally tasty) treat.
Bon & Viv Spiked Seltzer
Bon & Viv seltzers have seriously eye-catching designs on their cans, plus they come in some very unique flavors. Black cherry rosemary, pear elderflower, and clementine hibiscus are just a few of the cool flavor combos in Bon & Viv's portfolio. These seltzers are only 90 calories per can (with no added sugar) and contain 4.5 percent alcohol by volume.
Wild Basin Boozy Sparkling Water
Wild Basin hard seltzers are the creation of Oskar Blues Brewery in Lyons, Colorado. The seltzers feature water from the St. Vrain River and come in sweet-savory flavors like cucumber peach and melon basil. Each seltzer is 100 calories with no added sugars, and they contain 5 percent alcohol by volume.
