Slang du Jour Sfogliatelle
Drekker Brewing Company

L: Poured from a tallboy can to a snifter glass. Had a golden yellow color and a mostly cloudy consistency. There was a half inch of foamy, somewhat long-lasting head. Pretty good lacing.

S: A solid aroma of citrus fruit, vanilla, yeast, and lactose.

T: Tasted of a bit of lactose (not a particularly huge factor), some citrus fruit (lemon, in particular), a tinge of vanilla (lingers around, for the most part), and a bit of yeast (subtle, yet present). An interesting flavor that kind of grows on you. It has a weird, slightly off-putting quality at first, but it settles down and the fruit flavor emerges. Pretty tasty.

F: A well-carbonated beer with a smooth finish. Medium-bodied.

O: An interesting and unexpected beer. Worth a look.

I don't see any date listed on the can or the label, import or otherwise.

Appearance: When cracking the can there was a noticeable sound that lacked pressure; no fizz or pop but rather a simple sound of the breaking of a metal seal. The beer is lifeless looking. It has no visible carbonation at all. The Body is a hazy gold pond of boredom.

Aroma: It smells a bit like bandaids, raspberries, burnt toast, and rubber.

Taste: It's sour up front with an odd plastic taste. There is some wheat flavor. It finishes with a bit of vinegar flavor. After a while the beer takes on a bit of lemon flavor.

Mouthfeel: Carbonation is nonexistent and acidity is moderate. The beer has a decent texture and a soft body which is oddly pleasant in the disarray of non-complementary characteristics.

Overall: It really isn't a beer I'm likely to recommend. The thing is all over the place and seems to rely on acidity to hide the evident flaws.

Had on tap. Cloudy yellow body with a finger of white foam. Smells surprisingly hoppy, with sweet lemon, almond flour, and vanilla. Taste is not hoppy at all: candied lemon, peach, toasted almonds, brown sugar, and vanilla beans. Feel has a bright tartness, with high carbonation on the finish. Sweet and sour treat
