I don't know why this isn't categorized as a Fruit and Field Beer-- it's flavored with pomegranate and strawberry and that's about all you taste. Smells of Kool-Aid with an overripe strawbwerry nose. Tastes of very old orange. Really sweet with a surprising bitter astertaste. Maybe it is hard to use fruit flavorings effectively, but this is disgusting. From the 12 oz can dated 01/27/2022 and another reason not to buy beer at the big box store.
