16 fl oz pull-tab can with pinkish label:

5.2% ABV. "Sour wheat ale." "Brewed with thousands of pounds of blackberry, raspberry and strawberry puree."

Served cold into a stem-snifter.

APPEARANCE: Thick and sludgy in appearance, looking like viscous pressed juice. Jam red in colour with no head at all. Opaque.

There's no doubting this beer was brewed with a metric shit ton of fruit just looking at it, but I don't know that it's a great sour wheat ale appearance overall.

AROMA: Berry jam. Tart blackberries and raspberries. Really heavy on jelly, but there's also an artificial peanut butter note right up front.

Doesn't seem overtly sour - just tart. I detect no wheat or any malt (or hops)...the fruit drowns out everything else in tandem with the fake peanut butter note.

TASTE & TEXTURE: Doesn't feel as thick or sludgy as it looked; indeed, up front where all its fake peanut butter flavour is, it feels a bit thin. Opens on that peanut butter powder flavour then promptly abandons it for a thick berry jam/jelly flavour; the two never meld or harmonize.

Tastes shallow, lacking any depth of fruit flavour at all. The fruits aren't very vivid or expressive.

Smooth, wet, not unrefreshing, medium to full-bodied. Lumpy. Well carbonated for what they're going for.

OVERALL: Not a top tier peanut butter beer, nor a top tier jammy sour ale, but it's not bad for what it is. Not my favourite of these sludgy fruity Weldwerks beers, but it's drinkable and enjoyable. I'm glad I didn't nab more than a single can.
