Review: Truly Tropical With Real Fruit Juice Mix Pack

by Jeff Ellingson

The Truly Tropical mix pack is now made with real fruit juice.  While real fruit juice always tastes better than natural flavors, real fruit in hard seltzer often translates to an over sweet hard seltzer.  So while I’m excited Truly has added real fruit juice to their line of hard seltzers, tasting, like seeing, is believing.  Truly is made with filtered water, alcohol from cane sugar, natural flavors, and flavor specific fruit juice from concentrate.

Truly Mango:  Made with mango juice from concentrate.  The aroma leads with tropical mango.  The sweet mango entry builds to a mango banana peak.  It fades with citrus and mango and finishes with juicy mango, tangerine, and ripe banana taste.

Grade: A

Truly Passion Fruit:  Made with passion fruit juice from concentrate.  The aroma leads with passion fruit and blood orange.  The tropical passion fruit entry is joined by blood orange and kiwi.  It fades with pineapple and guava and finishes with juicy passion fruit, grapefruit, and mild carbon seltzer taste.

Grade: B+

Truly Watermelon Breeze:  Made with watermelon juice from concentrate.  The aroma leads with sliced watermelon.  The fresh watermelon entry is joined by kiwi building to a tropical watermelon peak with watermelon, banana, and lime.  It fades and finishes with juicy watermelon, tangy kiwi, and mild carbon seltzer taste.  Watermelon is a flavor that everyone has struggled with.  This is the first watermelon flavored hard seltzer that doesn’t have any Jolly Rancher Watermelon candy taste.  While others have tried mixing watermelon with other flavors including salt, lime, and cucumber, Truly found the right flavor blend.  If you are looking for the best watermelon flavored hard seltzer, I found it.

Grade: A

Truly Pineapple:  Made with Pineapple juice from concentrate.  The aroma leads with tropical pineapple.  The fresh pineapple entry is joined by a hint of coconut building to a juicy pineapple peak.  It fades with tropical pineapple and finishes with juicy ripe sliced Hawaiian pineapple and fresh orange juice taste.  Most pineapple hard seltzers leave me with a canned pineapple juice vibe.  Truly Pineapple has fresh sliced pineapple taste throughout.  Truly hit this one out of the park.
