In his latest match, Hulk Hogan is taking on the beer industry.
Terry Bollea, better known as professional wrestling star Hulk Hogan, has launched a new premium brand named "Real American Beer."
The Hall of Fame wrestler will distribute his easy-drinking light lager across 17 states this summer with several retail partners to bring Americans together, one beer at a time. The malt is said to be meticulously brewed, with 100% North American ingredients and a 4.2% ABV.
