12 oz can from an Ingles near the brewery in NC.

Aroma and Flavor. Clean and true to style. Seems slightly more hoppy than average and consequently, slightly less sweet than usual.

just like every other innovation beer I've tried-many types - this one also sucks.
Smelled like a urinal, tasted like vinegar and dirt.
They obviously can't do traditional beers, just trendy fruited sour crap.
never having another one from them.

Picked up a 12 oz can as part of a mixed six-pack from Ingles Supermarket beer cooler on Highland Lake Road in Flat Rock on 6-16-21 for $10.98. Canned 4-29-21; consumed 8-1-21. Cold stored since purchase.

Beer poured golden with a nice white head with the original pour.

Nose is light white bread.

Taste is white bread with a nice touch of noble hops.

Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied and fairly refreshing.

Overall you would not know this is a 4.2 ABV brew as the flavor is definitely that of a 5-5.5% ABV. Nice job by the brewing team!

Drinking this while camping in The Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina.
Poured from a can into a pint glass.
Looks golden yellow with a nice white foamy head that dropped to a thick ring.
Smells lightly bready, grassy, spicy.
Taste follows the nose nicely.
Mouth feel is medium for the style with a nice creamy finish.
Overall I look forward to trying this on draft at In Innovation Brewery in Sylva NC next week.
A nice example of a Blonde Ale.
Cheers!

Look: It pours golden and clear with a white head. It has moderate head retention.

Smell: It has a light grainy sweet and grassy aroma. There are faint herbal elements.

Taste: There is grainy sweetness in the flavor with some grass and herbal notes.

Feel: It has a medium light body with a tinge of metallic in the aftertaste.

Overall, the flavors are a bit muted for me with the tinge of metallic which throws everything off.
