FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE | Float House: The Summer of Float Is Here

Float House Introduces Tropical Floatie: A Bubbly, All Real Fruit THC Smoothie

Windsor, CT – May 2026 – Float House, the infused-beverage innovation company behind the award-winning THC-infused, non-alcoholic brews THC IPA and THC Lite, is expanding its lineup with a bold, fruit-forward summer release: Tropical Floatie. A first-of-its-kind, bubbly THC-infused smoothie crafted from real fruit, Tropical Floatie has no added sugars, no added flavoring, and is gluten-free. It represents a new direction for the brand and a new frontier for the infused-beverage category.

Tropical Floatie blends mango, tangerine, banana, pineapple, and key lime into a plush, lightly effervescent drink that glows in the glass. “It’s like a signal in your hand,” said Gordon Whelpley, Founder and CEO of Float House, “of good, floaty times ahead.” Tropical Floatie comes in 12oz 4-packs at 3mg, 5mg, and 10mg dose rates—and is only 90 calories per can.

In a market crowded with fruit-forward beverages that can rely on flavorings, extracts, concentrates, and added sweeteners, Tropical Floatie is the real deal. “As a brewer, I’ve always cared deeply about what actually goes into the glass,” said Whelpley. “There are a lot of products out there that approximate that summery vibe with flavoring and lots of adjuncts—and I get it, but it’s never been good enough for me personally. I wanted to create something I could feel great about drinking all summer long: all-real fruit, nothing fake, nothing added. Tropical Floatie is that product. It genuinely satisfies the craving for a bright, fruity, feel-good drink in a way that only comes from using the real thing.”

The launch of Tropical Floatie marks a significant expansion of the Float House portfolio. “Our core brews speak to craft beer drinkers, and we’re incredibly proud of what we’ve built with THC IPA and THC Lite,” said Whelpley. “But Tropical Floatie is for everyone who’s ever just wanted a great tropical drink.” For Float House, it’s the next step in building a portfolio that welcomes drinkers of all tastes into the fold.

Tropical Floatie is available now at authorized sellers and online in authorized states for adults 21 and over. For a list of retailers and to learn more, please visit the store locator on our website. To inquire about wholesale, please reach out directly on our website or via social @drinkfloathouse.
