Wow I expected a fruit beer and got a really harsh blonde slightly tannic with a very artificial Berry flavor I could actually pinpoint it swedish fish straight up. Didn't really ruin my evening and I finished it but I 100% wouldn't buy it again

Im sure a lot will say this tastes artificial and it does but I still thought it tasted good. I'm assuming they just now released this again since my store got a case. The beer basically tastes like the Crunch Berries in Cap'n Crunch to me.

Foggy Swedish Fish red with a tall pink hued off-white foam head settling to a dense blanket with a lightly curled ridge.
Taste is immediately medicinal, kind of like those water flavoring tablets marketed to kids in the 90s. It's a sweet but astringent sort of artificial cherry-berry that almost has a Tums character to it. There's a biscuity pie crust malt that is just faintly able to peek in here or there, and the smell is a bit like cotton candy.
The medium-light body has a softly present carbonation, but is also somewhat faintly chalky dry.
