An American kettle sour in addition to a palindrome. Hazy in color, this session sour has a nice citrus aroma, is mildly tart, and has pleasant notes of peach, tangerine, and white grapes.

I admit it, what's to say. I did get it, for the kitt-ay.

Bearded Iris glass. Canned 11/5/20.

Gold, halfsies on the transparency, with a half finger of creamy white head.

Weak aroma of pilsner malt, froot loops, and sour apple juice.

Flavor of watery apple juice, sour froot loops, pilsner malt, and slight straw. Would actually go swell with some hard shell tacos.

Feel is semi-starchy but stays in check, remains crisp throughout the profile, very carbonated and busy which fits the beer, and no alcohol which also fits the beer. Disappears ass-over-teakettle real quickly.

Overall, this is a traditional Berliner fan's beer. Nothing exciting here, just a pilsner-meets-bacteria in a can. There's nothing wrong with it, there's just immensely more exciting beers on the market right now. Belch. Just finished it.

Good for what it is.

Aroma sugar/candy, slight sweetness and malts. The flavor is fruit/lemon, malts/slightly grainy and a mix of mildly hoppy and sugar/candy in the finish.

Tacocat has a thick, creamy off-white head, a hazy, slightly bubbly orange appearance, and heavy glass lacing. The aroma is of sweet-tart candy and candy sugar. The flavor is the same, with some lemon peel. Mouthfeel is high medium, and Tacocat finishes medium dry.
