Poured from 16oz can into my BeerAdvocate teku. Canned 7/25/23. The can calls this an "imperial gose ale with blackberries, raspberries, orange, non-dairy vanilla ice cream, Madagascar vanilla, and vanilla salt". That's a heck of thing!

Appearance: rich purple sludge with a fizzy purple head that dissipates super quickly. I mean, as I said, it's a heck of a thing.

Smell: sweet berry dessert! Raspberry and vanilla are what I get the most, although there is a hint of sourness under there that's not bad. There's a nugget of something really good here, but I feel like a lot of what I like about this aroma is getting washed out by the vanilla and sweetness.

Taste: there's more sour to it in the flavor than in the aroma, and that helps a ton. It's still sweet and a bit too vanilla-ey, but the tartness helps the berries a lot. It's pretty good for purple sludge!

Mouthfeel: hmm, it's kinda hard to say what's going on there -- I think there's enough body, but not enough carbonation. It doesn't read as creamy as I'd like it to be, although it's not bad.

Overall: I mean, I'm not usually one for milkshake IPAs or diabeetus stouts or whatever this is. That being said, this is not bad and I'm enjoying it. Remember what the brewy monster says: "milkshake sours are a sometimes beer."
