Purchased as a single 16oz can from The Blue Door for $5.00. Poured into a tulip glass.

L - Opaque dark orange, with zero head. Pours thick. Looks a lot like carrot juice.
S - Passion fruit and pineapple hit me immediately. Very sweet on the nose. A bit of coconut milk, too.
T - Ok, a LOT of stuff going on here. Of course, the pineapple and passion fruit juice combo is seriously here. Some kind of nuttiness backs a sweet guava-coconut. A slight ethanol burn at the end, but then it rebounds with a nutmeg and oat finish.
F - Medium-bodied with very little carbonation. This... this is a juice cocktail. Viscous, but not syrupy. Refreshing.
O - This beer is a clusterfuck, but it all kind of... works! Advertised as a "tiki ale", this gives one vibes of tropical fun. If you're afraid to try this, let me put it like this: it's like someone filled a glass an eigth of the way with Stella Artois, then filled it to the top with a tropical V8 mixture, and finished it with Bacardi 151. I don't care if they list it as a beer, it's brewed as a beer, and that it's got the beer base ingredients - this is not beer. To make this more drinkable (I know it's a sin, but it made it better), I tossed in a couple of ice cubes halfway down the glass. Would I recommend this to a seasoned beer snob? No. Would I recommend this to an average guy? Again, no. I would recommend this brew only to those open to the weird, or those who will drink most anything and find a way to enjoy it. Myself? I hate that I kinda like it. I really hate that I'm probably going to buy this in warmer weather if it ever becomes available. I hate that I'm probably going back to the bottle shop to purchase another four of these to enjoy in one sitting in a hammock at my home. In every fiber of my being, I hate this beer. I hate this beer not just on a physical level, but also as a concept. With this being said, this beer is my newest guilty pleasure, poured only with a few ice cubes in my next glass.
