I've tried a few different brands of kombucha, but L.A Brewery is by far my favourite. Other brands seem harsh and fizzy, and I've had enough after a couple of mouthfuls, but these taste natural a... See more

This stuff tastes wierd

Great delivery but the product is a little weird tasting. I ordered the blush and essentially it tastes like fruity strawberry pickle juice which I wasn’t expecting. I like tart but this tastes like pickles. Could eat some fruit and the drink gherkin juice instead. Flavour does improve with food but really not sure that would order again, I was considering giving white wine alternative a go to see if it is different but not sure. I’d compare it to marmite of a love or hate kinda flavour profile. It’s definitely unique.

Hello Jay - thanks for taking the time to leave feedback and in particular the detail in your review. I'm sorry it has taking me a bit to get back to you. Our fair trade Sencha green tea is fermented using a kombucha fermentation which is akin to a natural wine fermentation and produces a naturally tart, sweet, sour taste profile. This is where you are getting "pickles" perhaps. The taste of live cultures and good-for-you organic acids, but not to everyone's taste.

Our sparkling White Rose has a tartness too - but the rose and elderflower provide a natural sweetness. It recently received a 2-star Great Taste Award, so I would love for you to try it. Please sned a note to [email protected] FAO: Meg and I'll drop you a reply. Many thanks again for taking the time to write in - Meg

Good customer service

There were some issues with the delivery of my order. However, LW Brewery were helpful, kept me informed and ultimately resolved the issue. The product however is smaller than it used to be I liked the luxury feel of a mini bottle to open- and quite expensive for what it is. It is worth it - I think. 4 stars overall but 5 for service.

Thanks so much - this sort of service feedback always gives the team a boost!

We've actually taken the feedback on price from you here and others, and whilst our fair trade teas that we ferment in tank for 6 weeks are high quality, like our plants and botanicals layered in, we do want people to enjoy L.A Brewery at what they deem to be an acceptable price. Given this we have taken the price down a touch on our new slimline cans. Just in time to stock up for Christmas. Best wishes - Team L.A.

Thank you for this, and whilst your feedback was posted here a while back, we did keep in touch over email at the time to ensure your drinks made it to you. We also took your feedback on price that we discussed over email too and have recently reduced the price of our new slimline cans as despite the quality of the fair trade green tea we ferment over 6 weeks, and the botanicals and hops etc we layer in also being high quality, we are keen for as many people to try L.A Brewery at a price they also find fair. Do keep in touch at [email protected] if there is anything more we can do as a 1 star review we don't take lightly. Best wishes - Team L.A

Great taste Good service

I love the drinks, since I stopped drinking it bean searching for more interesting nonalcoholic drinks and you’re pretty much delivering. From the day I ordered it took only 2 days to get my drinks. Great customer service!

Love the product but it’s a shame LA…

Love the product but it’s a shame LA brewery has adopted shrinkflation. The bottles used to hold 300 or 330 ml I think, these little cans just 250ml, and the price is the same. Bought because it’s local to me but it will remain a very occasional treat because of the price. Packaging for delivery was excessive … huge box with 2 boxes inside

I am disappointed by the change to cans…

I am disappointed by the change to cans with lower volume without any corresponding reduction in price - also that it was done with no notification. This has lead to me cancelling my subscription as the drinks are now too expensive to justify. I would have supported a change to cans if the price had also been lowered, but this appears underhand.

I've enjoyed LA Brewery for many years

I've enjoyed LA Brewery for many years, and it's always my go-to at Leons and Itsu when in stock. The new cans look great with the LA branding but the new price is a little prohibitive, and far less drink too.

L.A Brewery 80ml less per drink.

L.A. Brewery have just announced they have switched their kombucha from 330ml glass bottles to 250ml cans.

I am quite shocked that they expect to give customers 80ml less per drink yet charge them more.

80ml x 12 drinks is 960ml that's almost 3 drinks less for an order that costs £39.00.

Extremely disappointing.

The BEST kombucha I’ve found

The BEST kombucha I’ve found, this is my 2nd time ordering, and I’m obsessed. I can’t drink most other brands now as they taste awful and weak compared to these!
More recently I had a slight issue with my order and customer service were excellent and the problem was sorted very quickly.
Highly recommend to everyone!
