The can says "STORE COLD, DRINK FRESH" but there doesn't appear to be a date on the can or the sticker label.
Appearance: The body is opaque and it has a light beige-orange color. It has a medium-large sized fluffy white head that looks beautiful in the glass. Excellent head retention and nice sheets of lacing. It's picture perfect.
Aroma: It smells just like a vanilla Oreo cookie. There is just a very light note of citrus which comes across as very faint lemon, but the majority of the aroma smells like a golden Oreo, including both the cookie and the frosting.
Taste: Up front there is a sweet sugar cookie flavor which tastes just like those Lofthouse cookies that grocery stores sell for every holiday or season. Towards the middle the sugary flavor is also there but there is this citrus note that seems to combat with the sweet sugar flavor. The flavors just don't meld well together, but they are still really strong and very tasty. The back of the palate and aftertaste have a bit of a strawberry flavor that lingers around a bit, giving it this kind-of strawberry shortcake flavor.
Mouthfeel: It is full bodied, thick, smooth, and easy to drink. Mild tartness to the beer that prickles the tongue.
Overall: It is a very tasty beer. The label on the can states that this is a "SMOOTHIE-STYLE SOUR ALE WITH PINEAPPLE, CREAM CHEESE, BANANA, GRAHAM CRACKER & VANILLA CREAM." The pineapple could be contributing to the somewhat odd citrus-like character. The banana doesn't appear at all. The cream cheese, graham cracker, and vanilla cream could all be contributing to the golden Oreo characters. As a whole it is very tasty and I would highly recommend it to people with a sweet tooth who are willing to try something a little crazy. I could drink it again but it is so sweet I probably wouldn't have more than one.
