355ml can, part of their Adventure pack, which appears to be all lighter, summer-friendly kinds of brews. Perfect for a week of hellishly hot temps, at least in my part of the world.
This beer pours a slightly hazy, pale golden straw colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, loosely foamy, and somewhat rocky bone-white head, which leaves some spotty remote islet lace in places around the glass as it evenly dissipates.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, corn meal, a bit of phenolic plastic 'character', and very faint earthy, musty, and dead floral hop bitters. The taste is bready and doughy pale malt, some muddled pome fruitiness, a tame damp minerality, and more well understated leafy, herbal, and grassy green hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-satisfying frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and mostly smooth, with that phenolic essence still looking to play the role of local party-pooper. It finishes off-dry, the mixed malts and tainted fruit essences showing some lingering oomph.
Overall - I'm not familiar with the 'Sweet As' descriptor, unless they were trying to maintain a PG rating, or forgot to make it 'Sweet As a', to make any lick of sense. At any rate, not particularly enjoyable, but it was cold, so, it has that going for it.
