Clear and bright light yellow body; good amount of rising carbonation; thin, wispy head, very patchy. Little aroma; what there is is a strange mixture of very faint citrus and grass with a slight mineral-like note; bland. The taste has a rather sharp lime quality with some tangy, spicy juniper flavor; very little hop bitterness. Weak and watery mouthfeel; some tanginess.
This beer is a huge disappointment. The taste is the only thing that comes close to its labled juniper / lime name, and that comes across in a ham-fisted manner. The overall flavor lacks depth and balance. The rest of the beer's qualities are totally lackluster and unappealing. There's decent carbonation bubbles but no decent head. The aroma has very little to it, including the insinuated juniper and lime. The taste comes closest to its marketing labeling, but those qualities just seem like someone squeezed some flavoring into tap water. There is nothing else such as the malt base or hops building upon or augmenting the basic juniper and lime notes. And the mouthfeel truly comes across as flat and watery. Upslope beers are generally reliable and interesting, but this offering just doesn't cut it.

On draught at Frontier Brewing and Taproom.
Pours a clear straw yellow, healthy head of foam, good lacing.
Smells of lime, Junipers, corn, tart. Has that AAL kind of smell initially.
The taste is big lime, juniper, light tartness from the lime, sort of singular dimension.
Very light body, a wee bit light carbonation.
Not something that I would seek out but that may just be me.
