Frenchies Brewery has launched its first-ever seltzer product, the Aperitivo Seltzer, offering flavours of bitter sweet citrus, and featuring 25 all natural, locally sourced spices, fruits and botanicals. 

The Aptertivo Selzter undergoes a refined brewing process and triple filtration. The result is a light, bright and refreshing 4 per cent ABV sparkling beverage.

Frenchies says while in true 'Aperitivo style' the seltzer is perfect for enjoying before any and every meal, it’s also been designed for sipping anywhere, anytime, and is best served chilled with ice and a slice of orange.

Co-founder and head brewer, Vincent De Soyres’ says the Aperitivo is inspired by the Italian coastline, yet has been specially brewed for the Australian summer.

“Seltzers have become massively popular over the last few years, however we recognised there was a bit of a gap in the market for an all natural, locally produced product, that also offers a completely unique flavour profile to what’s currently out there.

“So, leaning on our mix of European and Aussie brewing techniques, and love of these continents in equal measure, we developed the summery, botanical infused Aperitivo Seltzer. It’s the first in this new range, and there will be more unique seltzer products that pair Euro and Australian influences dropping later in the year,” said De Soyres. 

The Aperitivo Seltzer is now available in 330ml cans can be purchased in four packs and cases of 16 from the brewery and online.
