The questions everyone asks about:
Taste, value & Buzz
Please read these comments to see if Hard Ketones are right for you. They are an acquired taste and tends to work for most, but not all, e.g. ssris & kratom users
Don’t expect this to taste perfect - a lingering aftertaste, but quite frankly, I DID get a buzz
Did not feel any buzz, as advertised. [It doesn't work for SSRIs/kratom users] Tastes pretty bad but... did raise my ketone levels, though, and suppressed further cravings.
Real Buzz with No Booze Is No Lie! Sure, it's pricey but it's SO much better for you than alcohol
Yay!!!! Been wanting to stop alcohol because it is literally poison, don’t like THC anymore and this is great!!!! G and T tastes delicious as well!!! Problem solved, thank you!!!
A Healthier Path Forward. The ultimate solution for individuals seeking a break from alcohol.
This stuff worked great for me and the taste was honestly better than most adult beverages.
Improved Taste & Potency - Great alternative as a social lubricant rather than the toxicity from alcohol... FYI - in ketosis since July 2019
flavor is tolerable with a good amount of ice, however the effects felt really great!
Best alcohol alternative I've found - The taste is pretty good, when acquired. It's hard to explain, but one can does give me some sort of buzz... –>
... I've swapped a can for the 2 glasses of wine I used to drink per night. Again, not cheap, but I sleep MUCH better and still get that relaxed feeling.
the superior-to-alcohol alternative
reconsider what you drink
PINA COLADA SELTZER
(Stevia)
15g Ketohol (12oz)
$74.95 12 pack ($6.25/can)

STRAWBERRY SPRITZ
(Stevia & Allulose)
15g Ketohol (12oz)
$74.95 12 pack (~$6.25/can)
The new favorite among our staff. Sweeter than the Pina Colada. This limited production won't last long.
GINGER MULE

17g Ketohol (12oz)
$79.95 12 pack (~$6.65/can)
Sweet with a subtle kick. Add a twist of lime to match the real thing.

FAQ
It should not show up on a urine or breathalyzer, but please do not drive if impaired, you can still get a DUI, just like if you took THC. As for blood test, we had one report of a false positive. Consider asking/telling your employer that you would like to use this drink.
We find that 80% feel a buzz with 2. They describe it as a cross between a beer and THC, but without the sleepiness and food cravings. It may be best to start with 2 or 3 the first time to make sure you feel it. The other 20% seem to be because they use SSRIs, SNRIs or Kratom (doesn't work). Also some that have a super high alcohol tolerance, may not feel the buzz but should still feel the reduced desire to drink and help with withdrawal symptoms. Also those that hate the taste and are pissed off, that likely isn't a relaxing state to feel it. See taste adjustments above.

It may seem that way at first, but the value is there for most people once they understand it. Don't think of it as a 1 can vs 1 can comparison. Also we did also just increase the Ketohol by 40% with no price increase. We will have a blog post on this soon, you can see this video in the meantime that should cover it here.
NOTICES:
• Not for athletic performance. This is more of a relaxing drink. Maybe post workout.
• Do not drive if impaired.
• Not for pregnant women and not recommended for people under 21.
• Does not work with SSRIs, SNRIs, or Kratom use. Sorry the buzz gets blocked.
