12oz CANNED ON 06/04/19 (7 weeks old) consumed from the can 4.5% ABV 10 IBU. The beer appears light amber with nearly white head. The aroma is classic fruit cocktail. The taste is as advertised with notes of pineapple, mango, blood orange and cherry with minimal bitterness. The mouthfeel is thin to medium bodied, adequately carbonated and mostly dry in the finish. Overall, very good, if you are into these things. I prefer a good clean pilsner at this ABV, but rated to style.

Poured out of a 12 oz. bottle into a pint glass, this beer pours a clear, medium golden color with a nice white head that's initially well over an inch thick when first poured. Head eventually settles to a thick white ring surrounding the inside of the glass along with some spots of swirls of foam on the beer's surface. Just a little bit of lacing on the inside of the glass. Aromas of of some zesty, biscuity malts and certainly some citrus notes with a slight touch of barnyard funk. Has a bready, biscuity, and slightly zesty, herbal malt flavor with some nice, somewhat funky, citrusy, slightly sour flavor with just the slightest touch of hops. Light, refreshing, crisp, and very enjoyable on this hot and humid 4th of July night here in Cleveland, OH. Has a crisp, also smooth, light to medium bodied mouthfeel with light to moderate carbonation.

I got this off the single shelf at my local Giant Eagle. It poured a clear golden with white head that is not leaving any lace. The scent had citrus peel notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with lemon flare. The mouthfeel is lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a good summer beer.

 

Clear gold color, Thin to minimal collar with carbonation. Slight beery aroma, very neutral taste with slight aweet tangy aftertaste. Very sessionable.

 

Clear shimmering amber with a thin, off-white carbonation.

Smell is sugary orange and lemon wedge chews with honey and white bread.

Taste is semi-sweet lemon and orange with wheat and white bread.

Lightly tangy, the medium body has a big soft frothiness, and finishes semi-dry.
