Hazy, pulped up oj topped with a dense but bubbly off-white blanket.

Smells like Turbo with an intense punch of orange, rounded out by vanilla nougat, Mt. Dew, and a faint dankness.

Smooth with a soft carbonation but a lighter, semi-wet finish, flavors of tangy orange and lemon are made exceedingly quaffable by rounding shortbread, a spritzy, semi-sweet Sprite-like pop, and a slight prickling of wild weeds.

This one was quite a bit more Turbo Shandy-forward than their smaller batch, draft only Orange Dreamsicle IPA release. It's still very good though, and will drive the shandy groupies nuts!

I can't believe they're dropping this for the Rare Beer Club for a third time, as opposed to a public release, but in 2025 it's giving big orange Sunkist with a little vanilla cream soda, countered by bitter Gangster hops. The old lady said she still gets some shandy vibes as well. It's also worth noting it's mostly clear now, as opposed to the almost thickly hazy it originally was.

This seems like a phone it in type of drop that I could do without at this point, but I'll leave my score alone.
