This beer was brewed in collaboration with FC Buffalo, Buffalo's professional soccer team. The beer is an extremely light and crisp summer beer, late hopped with Simcoe, Amarillo, and Citra hops, which results in a beer with irresistible aroma and flavor of pineapples and oranges. This "Fantastically Crushable" beer is truly For Our City.

From the 10th Anniversary mix pack. Packed May 2, 2025, so ~6 weeks old. Let sit out for 10 minutes or so (@80F), before opening.

Hazy yellow, with 1.5 fingers of off-white head.

Smell is fresh grapefruit, a hint of lemon, passion fruit, papaya, pineapple juice, and blood orange.

Taste is grapefruit, orange rind, pineapple, and a hit of passion fruit.

Feel is light-medium, juicy, with moderate , semi-soft carbonation tingle. Slight drying effect after finish.

Overall, enjoyable, and easy-drinking. Lives up to the name. Disappears quickly, and almost without notice. Wouldn't have known it was a wheat beer if I hadn't read it. Highly recommend. :)

Draft pour. Golden color with a very light off white head. Slight citrus flavors in the taste. Very light and easy to drink. Nothing special, especially with the very low ABV. Could drink again.
