Hulk Hogan‘s Real American Beer is flying off shelves following the WWE star’s death, and his company is hustling to restock retailers between New York, Florida and beyond.
Sources tell TMZ … “Around the country, there has been a run on the beer and people are walking out with multiple 12 packs and 24 oz cans, leaving the shelves bare.”
We’re told the company is working overtime to supply retailers so fans “can cheers to Hulk” and celebrate his incredible legacy.
The iconic wrestler launched Real American in June 2024 — and announced in May they’re planning to acquire Hooters after the company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in March to restructure its debts.

Real American Beer will carry forward his vision and mission with the same passion and purpose — and that includes his desire to bring Hooters into the Real American family.”
