Hard kombucha is what happens when you take kombucha and referment it to make it boozy. 

From start to finish we go through a three separate fermentation processes that result in a fully fermented alcoholic drink with real depth, not something mixed together after the fact.

If you’re asking will the cultures in the drink do good for your gut? No. We are unashamedly an alcoholic beverage, and we do not believe in healthy alcohol or better-for-you-booze. 

However, we would encourage you to go out with your mates, grab something delicious to eat, knock back a few tins of the Stiff stuff and have a bloody good laugh. We strongly believe that these moments are just as positive as drinking a traditional kombucha after the gym, because having fun is good for you too.

When you’ve made the decision that you want to drink a delicious bevvy, there are definitely worse things you can drink than Stiff Tea. All of our brews are naturally gluten free and vegan, and we brew without sweeteners. 

You also get to the reassurance of knowing you are drinking a proper brew, crafted by someone whose only interest is creating the best kombucha drinking possible using over a decade of experience brewing craft beer and kombucha professionally. That’s a benefit of drinking Stiff Tea.

To be efficient we operate two dispatch days a week Tuesdays and Thursdays. We use APC for deliveries, and all orders will arrive within 24-48 hours of dispatch. Cutoff for orders to be dispatched on Tuesday is 4pm on Monday, and the cutoff for orders to be dispatched on Thursday is 4pm on Wednesday. 

Our core range sits at 3.4% ABV. Strong enough to feel like a proper drink, but light enough to have a few without it taking you out for the count.

Our brews are all distinctly different whilst being unified by the funkyness, acidity and complexity of our starter culture. Expect bold, expressive flavours with real depth, closer to sour beer or natural wine than a soft drink.

We don’t take shortcuts.

Everything is brewed and fermented properly, using real ingredients and a recipes that include time as an ingredient. Real juices, real gherkins, real hard kombucha.

Cold. Straight from the can or poured into a glass if you’re feeling civilised. Some people enjoy our brews with ice, and we’re not going to stop them.

It also pairs well with indulgent food like burgers and fried chicken, or even a cheese and charcuterie board. Anything that needs something sharp and refreshing to cut through it.

Keep it cold and it'll taste better, however our brews won't explode if you store them in a cupboard.

Yes. All of our brews are naturally vegan and gluten free. We also don’t add sweeteners. No weird additives, no hidden extras. 

Because we don’t need to. We aren’t trying to mix the products from other breweries or distilleries - we are brewers and fermentation enthusiasts, so the alcohol in our brews comes from fermentation, not adding in afterwards. 

Adding spirits is quicker and simpler, but It’s just not how we do things. Simple.

Because it’s alcohol.

We’re not here to pretend otherwise or dress it up as something it’s not. If you want something non-alcoholic for after the gym, there are plenty of great options out there. If you want something delicious to drink with your mates, that’s where we come in.

We believe in moderation, but we don’t believe in moderating our experiences. 

It does what it says on the tin.

It’s tea. It’s fermented. And it’s got a bit of a kick to it.
