Pours a pale yellow with a mild fog to the translucency. Head is a finger of white foam. Aroma is salted watermelon, through and through. Nice juicy, ripe watermelon. Flavor profile is watermelon, which starts light and builds to a full bite of a juicy, ripe watermelon. Salt shows up second, though rather quickly after watermelon. Very lightly tart as a whole. Mouth feel is medium in thickness. Texture is soft with a light effervescence. Overall, salty watermelon juice.

12 oz can, dated 12/22/20, into Urban South Wilie.
Medium hazy gold with a wispy ring of white head.
Aroma of sour watermelon jolly rancher, salt, and slight barley malt.
Flavor of salted watermelon, watermelon cotton candy, and slight fresh bread. Eff. This is really, really, really good.
Feel is light and airy, crisp carbonation, slight starch/cling on the finish but doesn't get in the way of enjoyment.
Overall, this was a hidden gem. Had I known how good this was, I would have bought a couple 6 packs. Now I know. I hope they make this again.
Price paid : $2 / single
Would buy again : yes

Pours an effervescent gold with rapidly dissapearing beige head. Zero head retention & lacing
S: A little bit of Jolly Rancher Watermelon candy
T: Follows the nose, dry & a little tart. More Jolly Rancher & some salt as this warms. Finishes dry, salty & sweet
MF: Slight body and carbonation
Great Raft should make this a Summer Time offering, I could kill some of this in the heat, very drinkable. I will certainly buy this again if I see it after Memorial Day
