Review: Kirkland Hard Seltzer

by Jeff Ellingson

Kirkland Hard Seltzer was released at a select group of Costco store locations in September.  It has taken until now to reach the Midwest Costco stores.  It is sold in a four flavor, 24 can variety pack for $17.99.  This is about the same price the big boys, White Claw and Truly sell their 12 can variety packs.  The four flavors included are Grapefruit, Black Cherry, Lime, and Mango.  It is produced by Patco Brands in Hood River Oregon.  Patco also makes Mystic Reef Hard Seltzer for Target, and Ranch Water Blue Agave Hard Seltzer.  It is a little curious that Kirkland and Mystic Reef share the same four flavors.  Like most hard seltzer brands Kirkland Hard Seltzer is made with purified carbonated water, alcohol, cane sugar, and natural flavors.  Each 12 oz. can weighs in with 100 calories 5% Alcohol, with 2 Carbs and 2 grams of Sugar.

Grade: B-

Kirkland Black Cherry Hard Seltzer:  The aroma has sour black cherry and cream cheese notes.  The black cherry entry is joined by sour dough building to a cherry cheesecake peak.  It fades with creamy cherry yogurt and finishes with whipped cream, sour black cherry, and carbon seltzer taste.

Kirkland Lime Hard Seltzer:  The aroma has Green River lime soda notes.  The sweet lime entry builds to a tart lime juice peak.  It fades with lime sherbet and finishes with lime and whipped cream, leaving foamy lime zest and carbon seltzer taste.
