I mean, is it beer? No.
Is it good? Maybe?
Did I like it? Yes.
It’s very dense and has tons of real fruit in it. Definitely heavy lemon.

Tastes like liquid LM Pie ! Delicious lemon, vanilla and light graham cracker crust character. Nice balance of flavors and lightly tart. Not overly done on the lemon. Light fruit smoothie.

16 oz can into a tulip glass.
Pours the thickest, most opaque beer you'll ever see. Pale gold in color with a sudsy white head. Good retention. Leaves a nice crown of lacing. Not sure how to rate this appearance. As a beer It's rather gross looking.
Aromas of lemon pudding, graham cracker, and vanilla cream with some light pineapple juice and orange marmalade.
The flavor is...a lemon meringue pie. Lemon pudding, tart lemon juice, graham cracker pie crust, strong vanilla. A little bit of pineapple and orange.
The feel is ultra full bodied. Like, you need to chew this beer. Medium-light carbonation. Chewy. Chewy. Creamy and chewy. Works for this beer.
Overall, this is a bit if an odd one to rate. The appearance is not good, but everything else is decent. For the style, it's...OK. It does come just about exactly as advertised on the can.
