For our first foray into smoothie beers, we had to work with the Frose' pros from Rancho Cucamonga to proudly present to you, in collaboration with Kings Brewing Company, "Frosecito"! We put more than 1000lbs of banana, pineapple and orange into this thick, rich, creamy and super tropical treat. Summer is almost here and what better way to welcome in the warm weather than with an easy drinking, silky smooth 8% smoothie style sour. We hope you enjoy!

Grabbed a bunch of There Does Not Exist and Burgeon beers, and a few others on a recent trip to Windmill Farms. Their website called this “For our first foray into smoothie beers, we had to work with the Frose' pros from Rancho Cucamonga to proudly present to you, in collaboration with Kings Brewing Company, "Frosecito"!

Poured a bright golden orange color with one finger of fizzy off-white head, which dissipated quickly. Could see a few bubbles coming up along the sides of the glass but could also see some sediment and dark spots which must have been pulp. World-class uneven foggy lacing. Good retention. (Sight - 4.25)
Smelled banana, pineapple, pear, peach, orange, Simply Tropical juice, papaya and grapefruit. About as good from the can. (Smell - 4.00)
Tasted better than the nose at first, but later deemed about the same. Lots of stuff going on here. In order got banana, pineapple, pear, orange, peach, Simply Tropical Juice, passion fruit, papaya, grapefruit and mango. (Taste - 4.00)
Medium body. Creamy texture. Average carbonation. Abrupt, citrusy finish. (Feel - 4.00)
This was outstanding overall but I was hoping for a little more with Kings involved. (Overall - 4.00)
