Aroma is fresh grapefruit/kind of like Squirt. The flavor is grapefruit/hint of jolly rancher/sugar, malts and a slightly smooth/very sweet/grainy finish.

Can. Nearly clear pink/coral with 2 finger fizzy head which quickly disappears. Punchy, real grapefruit aroma with malty background notes, noble hops. Flavor starts with grapefruit soda but quickly turns to bready malt. Not terribly sweet, light mouthfeel.

L:. Pours a slightly cloudy orange pink with no head or lacing.
S:. Strong grapefruit, both sweet and a slight tartness, that is the dominant smell, smells like a radler.
T:. Sweet Ruby red grapefruit with a hint of tartness, ends with some wheat and malt in the background, very grapefruit juicy.
F:. Prickly carb and light body.
O:. Solid radler, I like it better than the lemon version.

16oz can. Poured out a clear, pink color with a large, bubbly white head of foam. It smelled of grapefruit and caramel. Strong grapefruit soda taste with a tart bite.

This is not a bad drink, but it doesn't feel like a beer. I drank this one from the can, as it is can where most of the top comes off...I figure it was meant to be drunk that way. Probably meant to be chugged.
The brew in the can appears to be pink. The aroma was all grapefruit. Taste was mostly grapefruit with a hint of bitterness on the back end. Reminds me of summer shandy in that it tastes like a beer with flavor added. The combination was refreshing but not special. A good beer for those who are not big beer drinkers.
