look: 3 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 3.75
Appearance - Pours opaque and pink in color with a head that dissipates nearly as fast as it's poured, leaving behind a barren surface with no lacing.

Smell - Straight up juice; guava and pineapple.

Taste - Follows the nose. Guava mostly, with notes of pineapple bite filling in between.

Mouthfeel - Medium-to-full in body with low-to-fair carbonation. Creamy texture before a mostly dry finish.

Overall - I like this. I do. But... beer? It tastes like drinking straight up guava and pineapple juice, with a splash of alcohol. How do I even begin to rate this? It's certainly not sour enough to fall into that wild ale / kettle sour type of justification. It's just straight up cocktail juice.
