Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox beverage
Club-Mate (Шаблон:IPA-de) is a caffeinated carbonated mate-extract beverage made by the Loscher Brewery (Brauerei Loscher) in Münchsteinach, Germany, which originated in 1924.[1] Club-Mate has 20 mg of caffeine per 100 ml, sugar content of 5 g per 100 ml, and 20 kcal per 100 ml, which is lower than other beverages such as cola or most energy drinks.
Club-Mate is available in 0.33-litre and 0.5-litre bottles.
Some Club-Mate bottles include the slogan "Шаблон:Lang", which roughly translates into a challenge to the drinker of "one gets used to it".
Examples of Club-Mate-based mixed drinks are: vodka-mate; Tschunk,[2][3] a combination of rum and Club-Mate; Jaeger-Mate, a mix of Jägermeister and Club-Mate.
History
Geola Beverages of Dietenhofen, Germany originally formulated and marketed Club-Mate under the name Sekt-Bronte in 1924.[4] The drink was only known regionally until acquired by Loscher and marketed under the name Club-Mate in 1994.[5]
In December 2007, Loscher marketed a Club-Mate winter edition. The limited-edition Club-Mate consists of the original formula mixed with cardamom, cinnamon, star anise and citrus extract. It is since sold regularly for a limited time during winter.
In 2009, a Club-Mate-styled cola variety was introduced. Unlike other colas, its recipe includes mate-extract.
In 2013, Club-Mate Granat, a Club-Mate variety with additional pomegranate flavor, was introduced.
Club-Mate Zero, a sugar free version of Club-Mate is available since April 2022.[6]
As of July 2010, the company listed countries for example the United Kingdom,[7] the United States,[8] Belgium,[9] Bulgaria [10] and Luxembourg to reach distributors in 60 countries,[11] primarily in Europe, but also in Canada,[12] Australia, Hong Kong, Costa Rica and Taiwan.[13]
Hacker culture
Club-Mate has developed a following in computer hacker culture and tech start-ups, especially in Europe. Bruce Sterling wrote in Wired magazine that it is the favorite beverage of Germany's Chaos Computer Club.[14] It is also popular at Noisebridge[15] and HOPE[16] in the United States, Electromagnetic Field in the UK, the Hack-Tic events in the Netherlands and the FOSDEM in Belgium. Club-Mate appeared in numerous leading media websites like Al-Jazeera,[17] TechCrunch[18] and Vice.[19]
