This one pours a clear light orange-ish color, with a small head and not much lacing.

This smells like watermelon candy, citrus juice, fruit cup, and lemon.

This does watermelon fairly well without getting that weird artificial sweetness going. It’s lightly sweet and candied, with a low level of lemony acidity, and a general vague citrusy character.

This is light bodied, very clean, and pretty drinkable.

I like that this series doesn’t even come close to overdoing the fruit. It’s a more subtle take on a fruited sour.

S - melon, citrus. A bit of sulfur.

T - mildly tart watermelon with a hint of citrus hops. A little sulfur. No bitterness. Low sweetness. No booziness.
