Very hazy appearance. Sort of a dirty pink color.
The flavor definitely has cherry, but it is not overpowering. The vanilla doesn’t come through quite as much.
The mouthfeel is creamy, true to the milkshake IPA style.
Overall, a good beer. At the premium price ($18 for 4 pint cans), I’m not sure I would but it regularly, but glad I tried it.

16 oz can, no date, into Prairie Rastal glass. Since I love cherry and vanilla and I felt like something relatively sweet (as I know these beers can be), I decided to grab it and crack it!

The appearance right off the bat turns me off completely. Has a slight pink tinge amidst the brown spew from the can but pours the unmistakable color of sewage backup. I guess I could be classy and say it's "iced tea" colored but it's not clear enough to be. This is turbid as hell. Yeah - sewage. Head is 1 finger, pinkish white, leaves lacing - the only redeemable factor in this category.

Aroma is pleasantly dank but honestly, giggling, reminds me of a redneck trailer house. Pot and dirty laundry. The aroma doesn't turn me off completely like the color, but it reeks of poverty and arguing. Friends who slept over several times because of family problems growing up. Me driving them to get their things and standing in there for a few minutes. Vanilla air freshener. Maybe a pina colada air freshener, I'm not sure, maybe that's just my memories kicking in. Make no mistake, cannabis is front and center on this. No cherry, and barely any vanilla.

Flavor is surprisingly not very sweet at all, bringing strong cannabis, leather, herbal balm, and a finish of tar, tobacco, hand salve, and pine sap. If you think hard you can get cherry-flavored cardboard and a hint of table sugar. My wife says she gets more sugar than I do but says it's "clash-y". I'm actually impressed that this isn't oversweet to my palate like many of the other Resist beers, but this is still a barf fest

Feel is crisp to start, swells to creamy, bites with juiciness/acidity like a sour, and finishes resinous.

Overall, another laughable effort, but I'm glad I tried it. Maybe I can finally lay the Resist series to rest.

Price paid : $4.50
