I'm wondering about your experience with them:

  • Have they replaced your seltzer/soda buying?
  • How much do you use your equipment?
  • Where do you get your CO_2 refilled and how much does it cost?
  • What flavorings do you use and which are your favorite?
  • What equipment did you buy and do you recommend it?

I've tried San Pellegrino, Gerolsteiner, and Topo Chico.

What other non flavored types do you like?

I love it! Especially the raspberry lime. There were a lot of flavors to choose from so I just grabbed these two. I'm out of town for work for the weekend, so I hope the store at home has as good (or better!) of a selection.

I've got a SodaStream with an adapter to hook it to a 20 lb CO2 tank. Rather than buying the stupid expensive SS drops, I put between 8-12 of drops of these in. They've got a ton of candy flavors and most that I've tried are quite good!

The Mango Chainsaw is better BUT I still really like the lime. It reminds me of a mojito - I love mojitos.

  • Flavor Taste 7.5
  • Flavor Intensity 5
  • Carbonation **Low, Subtle Notes of… lime, the agave, and I swear I can taste of hint of mint but I think my brain is playing tricks on me. In the end it's like a light flavoring of virgin mojito.

Definitely getting this one again.

I can't believe I didn't know about these flavors before.

The Mango Chainsaw is pretty amazing, however, this seltzer has some sugars in it. This brings about the question: at what point can you call a drink a seltzer and at what point does it become a juice / soda type drink? A debate for another day maybe.

  • Flavor Taste 8
  • Flavor Intensity 5
  • Carbonation Low, Subtle
  • Notes of... it's slightly tangy, definitely tropical, kind of has a pineapple/mango almost hint of bubble gum flavor to it (reminds me a tad of Red Bull).

Definitely will buy again and will be bringing this to group gatherings where people want you to look like the rest of the cool hipster beer drinkers.

Their wild cherry is on point. This one is good not great, about like the target store brand pineapple/coconut.

It tastes like lemon pie. I don't like drinking pies. Who thought this one was a good idea?

  • Flavor Taste 3
  • Flavor Intensity 8
  • Notes of… key LEMON pie? Bizarre. I'm sure there are people who like these flavors - not for me.

Seriously, what should I buy in bulk and try? I have an indecision complex.

P.S. get ready for me to trash your selections in reviews.

I drank 4 of these today. They hit the spot. But they are nowhere near as good as Polar's Ginger Lime Mule flavor.

  • Flavor Taste 8.5
  • Flavor Intensity 6
  • Notes of… lime. Are you surprised?

I will keep posting pictures of random seltzer I drink even if it drives everyone out of this community. 😆

Kroger released a limited edition cotton candy seltzer earlier this summer. I bought it because it was weird but I unironically love it and I will be sad when it's gone. I crave the weird fruity vanilla flavor. Anyone else try it?

I'm not kidding around - this better become a reality.

Now it's your turn to add to the wave of suggestions they are about to get: Polar Seltzer Suggestion Box

My favorite La Croix flavor at the moment. Enjoying one while setting up some Lemmy communities.

  • Flavor Taste 9.5
  • Flavor Intensity 6
  • Notes of... fucking Pamplemousse, basically Grapefruit. This isn't wine tasting.
