16 oz can into a tulip glass.

Pours a hazy ginger color with a small off-white head. No retention or lacing to speak of.

Aromas of pineapple juice, toasted coconut, orange candy and maraschino cherries. There's a hint of vanilla and roasted marshmallows on the back. *looks at description on can* Yep. That.

The flavor has a lot of pineapple and cherry syrup, with more subtle notes of orange juice, graham cracker, vanilla, coconut and marshmallows.

The feel is medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Slick and subtly sour. No alcohol presence.

Overall, this is a beer that gives you exactly what it says on the can. In that regard, it's a great beer. The coconut is a bit difficult to pick up but everything else is there, in your face. Worth a try.

Ordered from Tavour in 16oz cans, chilled, and poured into a hurricane glass.

Look: Pours a deep orange with a hint of red, small white finger-sized head that disappeared quickly and left no lacing or foam.
Smell: Pineapple, cherry, and sweet toasted coconut and marshmallow up front, and there is almost a graham cracker sort of aroma on the end.
Taste: Pineapple up front, followed by light cherry note, malty wheat that carries a while, citrus that hangs with the malt, super light marshmallow and super light toasted coconut, but that is hard to get. No booze for an 8%, but if you chew on it, we get some booze on the backend. No bittering and no hop presence.
Feel: Light body beer, refreshing. Light tickle of carbonation that didn’t hang long.

Overall this is exactly what they said on the can. Ambrosia sour, refreshing ambrosia with no real heavy sour presence. It is hot as we write this review and refreshing as they come for a wheat beer. I know they say kettle sour, but this is more of a Berliner. Fun beer, we have another one and will gladly have another.

Cheers!
