Paraphrased from their untappd menu to account for rotating fruits as I don't believe every fruit combo deserves a listing since it will always be called fruity flash and likely not widely distributed:
"Our kettle sour brewed with rotating fruit combinations to compliment the effervescent natural tartness of this fan favorite!"

Had on tap at the brewery, and this is a cranberry, raspberry, and orange version of this beer.
On arrival, as is standard here, half a finger of head is present on arrival. The body is a perfectly clear, pink grapefruit color, on its way to amber.
Aroma isfruity and acidic with a very subtly slight hint of sulfur. Despite that fruits and acid are the main event here. I'm not picking up any malts, but the bartender assured me this is actually sour and doesn't just hint at it, which I like so I'm not gonna dock points here for anything but the hint of sulfur.
The flavor is TART. I like that a lot but be aware! It is a sour fruity beer, and like the bartender said it is similar to a sweet tart, but honestly less sweet. Again this is something I like. I am certainly picking up the cranberry, another flavor I love, but the orange is hiding in the back bringing a very slight bitterness.
The feel is dry-ish, but surprisingly full if that makes any sense at all. It has an astringency up front, but that actually fades by the finish as it begins to thicken your saliva like juice. It sounds gross when I say it like that, but it's literally what juices and lemonade do to my palate.
Overall this is an ACTUALLY sour beer, which I appreciate. Most sours you find in liquor stores aren't that sour, and for a fruited kettle sour, with rotating flavors, this is a fin interesting beer that makes me want to come back and try the next iteration.

Solid sour that changes fruits periodically. Not the absolute best, looking forward to trying more varieties. It's a fun concept and they pick interesting fruit combos on what little I know
