Haus earns mixed-to-positive reviews: the aperitifs often taste fresh, botanical, and versatile with low ABV that suits spritzes and light cocktails, but several reviews criticize muted or wine-like flavors and occasional syrupy or overly floral notes. Reviews praise standout flavors like Lemon Lavender and Grapefruit Jalapeño, striking packaging, and recipe cards, while noting uneven flavor complexity and that many blends drink better mixed than neat.

Haus looks great, the brand is cool; I want to like it. Some flavors, however, are a miss for me, and the overall beverages are best when mixed with other spirits, which limits the purpose.
Feedback
The flavor isn't exciting in a way that makes me want more... it's best when mixed with other products for me.

The packaging was really beautiful. Both the box it is sent with and the bottle itself. The flavors are very elevated. I feel like you either will love the unique flavors or hate it. Luckily, I enjoyed the flavors I tried.
Feedback
Would love smaller sizes since it takes awhile for me to finish one bottle and would like to try more flavors.
This is one of those brands that came beautifully packaged, but I didn't love the actual product. I tried a sampler awhile back, and while all the flavors taste different side-by-side, if you're having only one in a sitting it can be hard to tell some of the flavors apart. The flavors are unique, but that doesn't necessarily mean they taste great. I wanted something I could drink on it's own, but I ended up having to look up ways to do mixers because they were a bit much to drink straight. They also didn't sit super well in my stomach, which happens for certain types of alcohol for me.
Really tasty NA option! In particular if you are bringing something to a party and want to be more upscale. I was a Haus infrequent purchaser before they closed. Very interested to see what flavors they bring back under new management. Would particularly recommend their mini sets if you are a first time buyer. A great way to test multiple flavors!
Bright citrus and coaxing lavender are two sides of the same coin, meaning it’s a perfect example of two opposites destined to come together. The Lemon Lavender apéritif by Haus features a light and botanical flavor that hints at Coriander Spice and Chamomile. Haus recommends mixing the Lemon Lavender apéritif into a glass of soda water to introduce a bit of zing. Containing only 18% of alcohol, you can easily make this an afternoon delight.

I love their apéritif honestly. I think if you are into this type of drink, you can really taste the flavor profile and not get super drunk from it! I had tried almost all their flavor, my favorite is probably lemon lavender, such a goood summer drink, with a little ice and sparkling water.

I stop subscribing because the price is a little steep and I am trying to get better by drink less.

Beautiful packaging and 10/10 unpackaging experience. Some of the flavors are delicious and some are just okay. Nice extra to have in the cabinet.
Feedback
Some of the flavors are a little syrupy.
Tried Rose Rose & New Fashioned. Love both. A masterclass of a brand. One of my go-to gifts.

Tried Haus a little while back. Like the branding and the general aesthetic, but I didn't end up liking the flavors ordered (bitter clove and citrus flower) though it could just be that I'm not into aperitifs or haven't found the right use of them.
Feedback
Would be great to have some way of better understanding the flavors and how best to drink them.

Love bitters and bitter drinks, but can't say I loved the 4 different flavors I tried.
Tried this at a friend's house and it is delicious! Great alternative to Aperol or Campari for making spritzes. I thought about buying it, but it is a little pricey. Will perhaps purchase as a gift.

Lower price point
The product is great but the real reason to buy this is the sleek look on your countertop. Alcohol branding at its best !

I love the cleverness with which Haus is coming to market. Obviously the branding is on point, the packaging is beautiful. I keep trying to figure out how it fits in with my routine personally. I did expect lighter alcohol content, but of course now I realize that's in relation to traditional spirits. I didn't love the two flavors I tried (bitter clove and citrus flower) but I just got a multi-pack to try some of the new ones. Taste is obviously personal, so you may love them! I like the recipes they come with, I also am pretty lazy so unless I find a flavor I love I may not re-up.
I love the branding, mission, and idea of Haus. For me, though, the apertif culture bit falls short as the flavors are better with added spirits, making them a cocktail and losing the lower-alcohol allure.
Feedback
Lighter flavors might help!

I love whiskey, but don't usually love bitters or whiskey cocktails. I loved mixing bitter clove Haus with a little bit of whiskey on the rocks. It added the perfect flavor to my drink.
Feedback
Some of the other flavors weren't my favorite.
The bottle, the founder story and the mission, plus the flavours are incredible! I'm not the biggest drinker but I feel very satisfied taking it neat or having it be a big part of a cocktail!
Feedback
They don't ship to Canada :( and it would be awesome to see how others drink it either through community-driven content or fun recipes

I bought the sampler pack for my partner as a gift. We found the flavors to just okay be okay and enjoyed them more as a mixer than on their own.

Love the branding, and that it's a low alc alternative to drinking wine... Haus' natural ingredients, and unique flavours are also a huge positive in my books :)
Haus is great to gift, but even better when shared together. I like the different flavors they offer like Yuzu and citrus flower. Just splash some sparkling water or sparkling juice, and you've got yourself a good time.
Great low alcohol alternative and looks amazing on the bar cart

Not totally in love with the flavors, but it is a personal preference
