Turns out,
it's the congeners
Congeners are the leftovers from making alcohol. Your body has to process them along with the ethanol.
We source an organic neutral grain spirit that has very few congeners. Leave the leftovers behind.
All glow. No fog.

01 What is Hardwater?
A new kind of alcoholic drink: spring water, a neutral grain spirit and real organic juice, with no carbonation. 5% alcohol by volume in a 12 oz can.
02 Is it a seltzer?
No. SunGod is somewhere between a canned cocktail and a spa water. Hardwater is still, no bubbles at all.
03 Where does the water come from?
Palomar Mountain, in San Diego County. Most canned drinks use city water. We went to a mountain.
04 Is it organic?
Yes. Every ingredient is certified organic, and the can carries the USDA Organic seal. No preservatives, no artificial flavors or sweeteners.
05 What are congeners?
The compounds that fermentation and aging leave behind in a drink, besides the alcohol itself. Darker, aged spirits carry more of them. We start with a neutral grain spirit, which carries very few, and use fruit for flavor.
06 What is a neutral grain spirit?
Neutral grain spirit (NGS), also called grain neutral spirit (GNS), is a highly distilled alcohol made from grains, with minimal flavor and impurities and a smooth taste. At SunGod we use the highest quality neutral grain spirit we can find, made from organic German wheat, for a crisp, neutral base that lets our flavors shine.
07 Is SunGod gluten free?
Yes. Our alcohol is made from organic German wheat, and the distillation process removes the gluten proteins, which leaves a gluten-free spirit.
08 Do I need to shake it?
A gentle turn before you open it. It is real juice, so it settles a little in the can.
09 Where can I buy it?
At stores and bars across San Diego and Southern California, and online with shipping to the states that allow it. Type a city or zip into the store finder and we will point you to the closest one. Find a store
