Loverboy reviews assert the brand works as a flavorful ready-to-drink cocktail line: fans praise tea-forward, lightly sweet blends like White Tea Peach and Hibiscus Pom and eye-catching packaging, while critics call flavors artificial with a persistent sweetener aftertaste. The reviews help buyers: pick Loverboy if you want low-calorie, tea-driven canned cocktails that taste mild and refreshing; avoid it if you dislike artificial sweeteners or very sweet, pronounced flavor profiles.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
My sister is a Summer House super fan, so I purchased some both as a joke and a gift. This review is only for the teas, so maybe the spritz is better, but there is really no reason to choose this over a better tasting, cheaper hard seltzer. The online prices are astronomical, but if you can find it in-store it is much more affordable. It is truly unremarkable outside of its connection to the Bravo reality universe. I would not recommend this to anyone who has never heard of Summer House.

The teas don't really have a discernable taste besides that sort of fruity, sweet aspartame taste of other fancy malt liquor canned beverages (let's not kid ourselves these are nothing more than that)! I think it would be difficult to drink more than 2 of these in a row. The online costs are honestly stupid, compared to how much more affordable it is to buy "boutique booze" elsewhere on the Internet.

I’m a huge summerhouse fan, so I had to try. They would be good if the artificial sweetener wasn’t so gross. The after taste reminds me of diet a 7up after taste. Barf. The base is good though and if you don’t mind that sweetener taste, then you’ll like them.

5 stars period, i was once not sure until I tried Loverboy @ Net Studios Inc.

The best ready to drink beverages, IMO. The hard iced tea is soooooo good. Tastes like peach tea or an Arnold Palmer but you can’t tell there’s alcohol in it at all. Great drink for pool, beach, etc summer activities. :)
I probably wouldn’t have tried this if I wasn’t a Summer house fan. I have only been able to find a few of the teas in my area. They teas are pretty good. I wish there were more kinds in my area because I would love to try the espresso martini and some of the spritzes. Like that the calories are lower. Adorable packaging

This is a yummy drink. It’s a lot less fizzy than other canned drinks - which I prefer. Plus, the flavors are delish!
the packaging and labels are a store shelf's dream; bright, cheery, colorful. Makes you want to add to cart, also doesn't hurt I am a Bravomaniac. I tried the peach tea with lavender and was shocked when the label said no sugar! It was a little too sweet for me, I would have cut it with a Topo Chico or sparkling water beverage. I would also like to know what alcohol is used in the drink... just says "alcohol" on the label.
I freaking love this stuff! For the calories, this is such a nice change of pace from the (IMO overhyped) hard seltzers out there. It's lightly sweet and has just a whisper of flavor. The Hibiscus Pom tea is delicious and the Espresso Martini's are absolutely incredible!

Nothing, just more flavors/types in my area.

I really like this brand! Their cocktails are unique and tasty - I really loved the white peach tea drink the best. Super light and refreshing, perfect for warmer weather gatherings!

I have only tried the Tea and have to say I am not a fan of any of the flavors. Would reach for other drinks every time... I find them overly intense (kind of like a super flavored Arizona Iced Tea) with a weird after flavor. Probably blended to meet the tastes of a younger/college age audience. I have many friends who do like these products and will get them every now and again- and I would be interested in some of the other cocktails but so far its a pretty big miss for me. Cute branding- but I also can only think of the guy from Summer House when I drink these which honestly makes me a little upset also.
I love the teas for a low sugar, hard seltzer alternative with way more flavor. The spritzes are also delicious. I don't love the espresso martinis because of the fake sugar flavor, but I've tried pretty much every other product and loved them all.
I havent tried their cocktails but I have had their hard teas and they are some of my favorite drinks to have. They have a good assortment of flavors and they all taste great, not too sweet and or too strong. Their packaging and appeal is great and I think their price is fair.
I've only tried the Chai flavor so far but I loved it. It's a pretty strong flavor so I couldn't imagine drinking more than one or two in one sitting.
Loverboy is my go-to for a BYOB situation. I love the white peach tea because it is so tasty and does not taste like alcohol. When they're ice cold in the summer it is the perfect treat. Anyone I have introduced to loverboy loves them! They do not really give me the best buzz, and I also get hungover when I drink them which is a personal problem :)

A little expensive - I don't want to feel like I'm splurging every time I drink.
I prefer to have a Loverboy over most other beverages. I’m not a huge fan of hard seltzers so this is great. The white tea peach and hibiscus lime are my go-tos. I haven’t tried the spritz or cocktails yet and not sure if I would.
It's another canned cocktail brand. Nothing special, not bad. If you have it, drink it, but don't go out of your way to look for it.
I really enjoy these as an alternative to hard seltzers. They have great flavor but don't give headaches from being a sugary drink.
So terrible! I’ve given every flavor a chance at this point and end up bringing them to events as a “gift” that I should apologize for because they are absolutely gross!!
Feedback
It taste artificial and cheap.
White tea peach is probably my favorite flavor out of the teas! It's refreshing and doesn't have an alcoholic taste. I've yet to try their spritz, but their teas do run on the sweeter end. I could probably drink 2 of these before getting tired of them. Would recommend giving them a try if you're trying to have a cute little drink instead of getting a buzz.

I would love to write a review once you start selling and shipping to Canada! We live in Ontario, Canada about an hour from Toronto. The perfect place, in my opinion, to start! Cheers
