Devils Backbone Launches New Product: Tide Line Vodka Iced Tea

Roseland, VA (March 19, 2025) — Devils Backbone Distilling Company is thrilled to announce its latest product launch, Tide Line Vodka Iced Tea, which officially hits shelves this week. Tide Line Tea joins Devils Backbone’s award-winning lineup of Smash ready-to-drink canned cocktails and beloved beer portfolio, including Vienna Lager and Eight Point IPA.  

The name pays homage to Devils Backbone’s home state of Virginia, where a “tide line” is created as fresh mountain streams and rivers meet the Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic Ocean. Inspired by that natural combination, Tide Line is crafted when refreshing iced tea meets a splash of vodka. The product is available in four bold flavors – Iced Tea, Iced Tea & Lemonade, Raspberry Tea, and Peach Tea. 

“We are incredibly excited to launch Tide Line, a bold and refreshing addition to our portfolio, and can’t wait for everyone to experience what we’ve crafted,” says Megan Tuttle, Devils Backbone GM. “As the number one canned cocktail brand in Virginia^[1], Devils Backbone has always been committed to quality, innovation, and providing our customers with products they can trust and enjoy. Tide Line is designed to offer a unique and flavorful experience, combining the best of tradition with a modern twist.” (^[1] Circana, VA MULC, Spirit Based Cocktails, L52W Ending 3.9.25)

A low calorie and low alcohol option, Tide Line comes in at 4.5% ABV and 100 calories per can. The product is carefully crafted in Virginia, with no bubbles and real fruit juice to create a smooth, non-carbonated sipping experience.

Devils Backbone Master Distiller Matt Casto says, "Tide Line Teas are made with natural black tea and real fruit juice, crafted to be less filling and non-carbonated. Our Distillery has garnered more than 65 awards for our spirits products, and our hope is that people at the beach, on a boat, on their porch, or just relaxing with friends will enjoy these flavorful and sessionable low ABV products. Enjoy finding your Tide Line!"

Tide Line is available in 12-ounce slim cans and in an 8-count variety pack priced at $17.99, and a 4-count Iced Tea & Lemonade pack priced at $9.99. Tide Line is available at select Virginia, Maryland, and Delaware retailers.
