Can shared by Tim, thanks!

Pours chunky, turbid, glops. Red applesauce.
Red fruit in the nose with a cranberry-like nod.
Full bodied akin to fermented slop.
Big Cherry, raspberry, on the palate with plenty of sweet tarts.
Finishes with residue coating the throat after each sip. Afterthoughts of Hi-C and donated plasma haunt the mind.

Bright orange-ish red. Big Fruit Punch aroma and flavor with notes of strawberry and pear. Nice fruit/tart balance. Medium to light bodied light fruit smoothie.

Really testing the line between what is beer and what is alcoholic kool-aid, 450 North uses the unique fruit combination of strawberry, pear, mango and cherimoya to fuel their smoothie-style sour beverage.

A play on their movie-themed series of sours, FruitFella's kills it with a neon fuchsia and a mostly fizzy froth. As the sour settles, the scent of fruit juices, sodas, candy and jam fill the nose in a total fruit cocktail fashion. Expectedly sweet, a simple and sugary taste of syrup is slightly creamy and smooth. Lead by flavors of cherry and berry, the boldness of cherry squeezebox and strawberry kool-aid leads the way, backed with the lighter mango tropics and a juicy pear flavored wrap. Finishing sweet and jammy, the session is much more seltzer than of beer.

Full bodied and full flavored, the session is slightly cloying and decidedly sugary, devoid of any balance that resembles beer, but rather favors a sweeter seltzer character instead.
