Served in an imperial nonic pint glass
This beer pours a murky, ruddy orange color. It is topped with a fleeting head. Some of the flavors and aromas that I thought would pop, don't. Peach is the dominant aroma. I thought guava and passionfruit would stand out. Dargon fruit, to me, doesn't have a lot of aroma or flavor. Peach is the most noticeable flavor. Guava is there almost hand in hand. Super thick bodied with a smoothie mouthfeel. Not one of the best slushy sours from 450 North. It is still good. These things are so filling that I don't need a meal. Two of them and I am full.

16oz can. No dating information found, even though the label includes the admonition to "STORE COLD, DRINK FRESH".
Turbid body, with the color of yellow orange. Brief fizzy head only lasts a few seconds. Leaves a fruity film on the glass.
Aroma is pungent, with papaya and peach, along with other tropical fruit ingredients.
Taste is sweet and sour, with an secondary flavor that resembles fruit pith. Lots of peach and guava as identified tropical fruits. Aftertaste is more sweet than sour.
Thicker mouth feel. Some carbonation as evidenced by the few bubbles breaking at the surface.
This beer delivers as advertised on the label - a smoothie body with lots of tropical fruit notes and flavors. One and done is plenty for one session.

Pours an unfiltered reddish-brown, thick with little head and slow carbonation. Aroma is guava, peach and a bit of dragonfruit, though I'm no expert on that latter. Taste is bitter dragonfruit and passionfruit, with a fair amount of peach at the end. Not tart and more sour and bitter, this brew is a not a sweet smoothie.
