Red Rocks sold 254,640 cans of White Claw in 2023, the agency said, which is more than 25% of the total number of malt beverages sold there, according to a recent study by the agency. All told, more than 400,000 hard seltzers were sold at Red Rocks.

As far as food goes, the most popular item at the venue is hot dogs, they sold 65,000 last year. Do hot dogs and White Claws go together? I assume many of you probably know…
