Pours a cloudy red orange color with a thick foamy head. Head retention is decent. Lacing is good. The sourness is prominent in the aroma. My thought is raspberry, but I guess that is what dragonfruit tastes like. It has a butt puckering bitterness on taste. Again, dragonfruit?? It is good. Has a very sour aftertaste.

Like most BO sours, this one is more fruity than tart, with the ridiculous natural fresh fruit flavors really stealing the show. It doesn't have the luxurious mouthfeel of the JREAM series, but it's a damn good fruity sour in it's own right.
