Slushy XL - Rainbow Sherbet Cone
450 North Brewing Company

 

 

It looks awful but tastes great. Not much smell but all the orange, lime and raspberry notes are there with the creaminess of a sherbet. But the look...no head and the brown milky cloud is less than appealing. If I said what it really looks like I might get nauseous or be censored. Lol still just shut my eyes and enjoyed it.

 

 

Opaque brick red with a short but bubbly pale red head that settles to a thickly roiling surface leaving insane amounts of chunky vomitous pulp on glass.

Taste immediately kicks off the palate with a punch of tart lime transitioning to orange with accents of raspberry. However, taking a step back, as a whole it does indeed taste exactly like rainbow sherbet, but for it’s crisply carbonated medium round body that’s almost got a Pop Rocks or NERDS feel and flavor to its tartness.

And yes, again, it comes to a shockingly semi-dry finish. I probably shouldn’t be shocked at the unexpectedly clean finishes on these otherwise gaudy displays of fruit fetish anymore, but I can't help but perk up every time another one manages to do it.
