16oz can. Bottom date stamp is 'Canned on: 10/05/23'.
Cloudy, deep coral colored body. Foamed out of the can when opened, and overflowed the glass when poured. Ultimately all the head disappears, and a surface storm continues. No lacing but the drinking side of the glass retains a sheen.
Aroma of tropical fruit and cherry. Hints of lemon.
Taste is deep with cherry and guava. Lemon and lactose. Quickly fades in the aftertaste.
Very fizzy mouthfeel. A mix of sour and sweet. Syrup texture. Good carbonation.
The fizz in the mouth is high level.

16 oz can into a pint glass.

Pours a hazy bright orange color with a solid 2 fingers of off-white head. The head leaves some sticky lacing before settling into a thin sheet.

Smells like a guava smoothie with some passion fruit and a subtle tart cherry character. Just a faint hint of lactose on the back.

The flavor follows the nose: Guava juice (not the YouTuber) with some passion fruit and a hint of cherries. Not much going on here but I can't say it doesn't come as advertised.

The feel is medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Creamy and smooth. The lactose adds a fluffy softness to the beer.

Overall, this is a decent wild ale that's really more of a fruit beer than anything. Guava isn't really my jam and the cherry notes are a bit light. Still, it's drinkable.
