This beer is not in style. Thin and lacking body. It is too light in color which should have been an indication as well. I would love to see the recipe for this because it is just off.
I had it In a can from total wine in Naples.
Additionally, it is infected with bacteria or wild yeast. There is a sourness that does not belong which I suspect will increase over time. I am going to be uncharacteristically blunt - this beer should never have been released. It should have been dumped. Everyone makes mistakes and no shame in that.
Hollywood, I always give a second chance. I hope my next beer from you is better.

Can as an extra in a trade, at home in a Delirium snifter. This is horrendous. The color is immediately far too light, and the whole beer drinks like a shitty imperial brown ale. Super thin. The only positive thing I can say is that I don't think it's infected. Avoid at all costs.

16 oz can in Florida.
Pours with a clear, very dark, reddish-brown body and a weak beige head.
Unusual aroma.
Too sweet for a moment but this is soon countered by bitter hops and dark roasted grains. Hints of coffee, burnt toast, and bitter chocolate. Partially hidden ABV.

The 9.4% Abv is very well hidden.. and 8.99 for a 4pk 16oz cans is a no brainer!!

Picked up a 4 pal of tall boys for 8.99 at Fresh Market. Great price let’s give it a whirl. Popping the top I get a black licorice and molasses waft. Pours to deep opaque brown with no head, appears to not have much carbonation. Mouthfeel is syrupy. Taste is sweet with some earthy hops but zero carbonation, hope it is just this can. Taste is great but really needs the gas. Will try a new can to adjust review.
