It is well known that THC has helped fuel a lot of things for me. Recently, I’ve switched to exclusively drinking my THC, and when Back Pew announced they were releasing not one but two flavors under the name H.H. Soda Company, I was stoked.

HH Soda Co is associated with Back Pew Brewing Company, a craft brewery in Porter, Texas, that offers non-alcoholic THC-infused sodas, including their own 'H.H. Soda Co. Root Beer', alongside their amazing beers, creating a unique spot in their church-themed taproom, "The Sanctuary". They blend traditional brewery vibes with fun offerings like Harry Potter trivia and welcome families and pets every weekend.

Fair disclosure, I did have it on tap and in crowlers before it was available in four-packs and kept asking when it would finally be in cans! Before I dive too far in, I should let you know that each 12-ounce can (or pour) is dosed at 5 mg, so don’t make the mistake I made and drink two pints on an empty stomach! That was a fun story I can share with you if you ask me when you see me around.

I was asked by several people to cover a THC product as I’m a huge “canna-nerd” as I call it, and I geek out on talking about legally available cannabis products. I won’t dive too deep into the benefits of THC as we don’t have enough time in this article, but I will tell you how much I love these sodas.

I chose the Cherry Cream Spice flavor to write the article on (I’ll touch on the other available flavor later). Out of habit, I went straight in for a smell, and it smells just like a certain soda that had to obtain its doctorate degree to be so tasty. There is definitely some vanilla and cherry that stands out that translates into the taste as well.

Immediately upon the first sip, I would swear I was drinking a normal soda. The carbonation was perfect, which brought out the spice at the end that refreshed my palate and made me want to dive back in mouth first. If I wasn’t aware it had THC in it, I would have thought it was a soda straight out of the corner store fridge!

You may be thinking, “Well, duh, that’s the point, right?!” but let me explain. As someone who has had a ton of THC beverages, you can often tell it is a THC product with either a medicinal taste or an astringent aftertaste. This had no signs whatsoever, and for someone who is very particular about my THC beverage tastes, this is the easiest drinking one I’ve found.

After about 10 minutes of finishing my first, I start to feel the effects of the soda; I relax and I can’t help but smile. At only 5 mg per pour, it’s not going to overwhelm anyone, allowing for you to enjoy multiple and dose at your own level, as everyone is different.

I could see myself enjoying these while doing my favorite thing: putting on some music and just getting lost in the moment.

I teased a second flavor earlier. The second flavor is Rootbeer, and I can tell you as someone who is not particularly fond of rootbeer, this one is amazing. It tastes just like a rootbeer with none of the aftertastes that other THC brands overlook. I could see myself enjoying these at dinner or with a scoop of ice cream for dessert (on my cheat meal days, of course).

This is definitely a product I see being able to reach across so many different types of needs. For example, I actually use THC to help me with my weight loss and recovery from working out, as well as general pain. Not to mention the mental benefits THC provides and the stress relief you will feel, especially with the holidays upon us! If you’re planning on doing Dry January, this is a great solution to help make it so much easier to keep yourself on track with your goals.
