I think they use the same base beer for all of their selections, and they just add some kind of adulterant. That base beer is a very light, fizzy blonde ale. This ale is amenable to fruit flavorings (even if the end result isn't great, it's still plenty quaffable). But it just doesn't work too well when it tries to resemble more flavorful beer.

This pours brownish, heavily effervescent. Smells pretty decent, with a good kick of wilamette hops.

Tastes... just weird. Not bad, really, but weird. The hops are strong up front but they disappear almost entirely less than halfway through the sip and are replaced by the same weird, weak fizzy blonde ale nodes that are the trademark of all their other beers. It's like some kind of hop seltzer. Which, I guess it's not *horrific* because it avoids any off nodes. It's just not very good, or even very beer-like.
