Pours milk shake thick with a pulpy feel. Never have I had a "beer" of this color--a frankly pretty, not-found-in-nature blueish purple. I have to say right up front that I'm generally not a fan of these smoothie sours. It always seems like a gimmick to attract non-beer drinkers to the table. This one was more enjoyable because it did have a sour taste component unlike many other smoothie-style "beers". There's definitely sweet cream, vanilla and citrus flavors, but they serve to balance the sour aspects pretty nicely. Not my jam, but maybe it's yours?

16oz can. No dating information found. This brew has an ABV% of 5.3%.
Turbid, purple berry colored body. Filmy purple head that disappears quickly. Leaves heavy puree residue on the drinking side of the glass.
Aroma of lemon, blueberry, and blackberry. A little bit of vanilla.
Taste is sweet, and a little tart. Heavy berry flavor - blueberry and blackberry, joined by vanilla, lemon, and cream.
Milk shake thickness. Coats the mouth. Quiet carbonation.
I put this in the fruited kettle sour style. I do not know if this is the same brew as when first entered here; the ABV% is different. Good balance of flavors and not too sweet.
