Poured from 12oz can into my BeerAdvocate teku. No date on the can.
Appearance: medium golden hue with plenty of haze and a thick head of ivory foam that sticks around plenty and has a very thick lace left on the glass. Very good.
Smell: vinous and sweet, with a minty / grassy hop character. Very different, to be sure, but not bad at all.
Taste: this one is definitely an odd duck! The sweetness is pretty high, but the vinous grape flavor works in this setting. Hops read to me as minty, as in the aroma. It’s probably not a beer I’ll go back to, but it’s an interesting experiment for sure, and a successful one.
Mouthfeel: medium-rich body with a moderate carbonation and pretty good creaminess.
Overall: I am enjoying this beer, and while it is maybe a bit sweet for my taste, I am gonna award it extra points for creativity and successful execution.

Pours a very hazed gold with 2 fingers of cream-colored head. Good head retention & bice lacing
S: Breadyness, green melon, tangerine & nectarine once warm
T: Follows the nose, also some nectarine & dryness, plus some mustiness from the grapes up front. Sweet white grapes, pomelo, dryness & green melon as this beer warms up. Finishes dry with pink grapefruit, must & white grape juice
MF: Medium body, fairly firm carbonation, nice balance
Very easy to drink, ABV is well hidden, usually not a fan of IPAs with grape components, this works well
