NÜTRL Introduces Limited-Edition "Call Ball" to Shake Up Game-Day Downtime

NEW YORK (November 12, 2026) –NÜTRL Vodka Seltzer, the #4 seltzer on the market is shaking up game day (literally) with the introduction of the limited-edition “Call Ball,” a football-shaped gadget designed to turn downtime into an opportunity for fun. From commercial breaks to referee reviews, even the most exciting games have their fair share of pauses. With a simple shake, the Call Ball reveals a game-day prompt, from “ROAST YOUR RIVAL” to “MAKE SOME NOISE,” bringing a new level of excitement, friendly competition, and interaction to game day gatherings. Whether at a tailgate or watch party, the Call Ball gives fans a new way to engage with their crew between plays.

With college football games averaging three hours and 27 minutes from kickoff to final whistle, according to CBS Sports (2024), there's plenty of time to keep the energy going beyond the action on the field. The Call Ball turns these pauses into opportunities to spark conversation, fuel friendly rivalries and create memorable shared experiences among friends. Paired with NÜTRL’s great taste, the Call Ball adds a fresh layer of interaction to the game day experience, giving fans another way to stay connected and 'Keep It Tasty.'

The Call Ball builds on NÜTRL’s broader presence in college football, reinforcing the brand’s place in the traditions that define the season. From kickoff to the final whistle, NÜTRL continues to find ways to show up for fans throughout game day.

“College football brings fans together week in and week out, and we saw an opportunity to extend that spirit beyond the action on the field,” said Steve Wolf, Vice President of Marketing for Beyond Beer at Anheuser-Busch. “With the limited-edition Call Ball, we’re giving fans a playful way to make game day their own, encouraging them to be present, spend time with their friends and get in on the fun between plays.”

Fans can purchase the limited-edition NÜTRL Call Ball for $125 at ShopBeerGear.com. (link to product). Crafted from a real leather football, the premium gadget features a rechargeable battery, built-in charging port and 12 unique prompts.
