Lemon Breaker
Hop & Barrel Brewing Company

Pours clear bright straw yellow with a huge white head. Generous lacing. Aroma is lemon drop candy. Flavor follows the nose, very sweet. Feel is light but syrupy, very little carbonation. Overall, a disappointment.

Something is wrong with this (?), so I am not quite sure how to review it. Maybe the cans we got were several years old, but they were purchased at a major retail liquor store with a high volume of business, so I kind of doubt it. No dates on the cans though. Being really old would explain why the liquid is almost entirely flat. That's number one, then the flavor, which is really poor. It is thick and syrupy, tastes of medicine or chemicals. Sickly sweet, like a lemon pudding pop melted into a can of flat beer. I can't review it honestly as beer, because I don't think it is beer? Does not taste like beer. A drain pour, unfortunately. If I lived close to the brewery I would very seriously take the remaining cans in and ask for a refund. Not fit for the mouths of man or beast. Maybe a dog would like it though, they have been known to drink antifreeze, which I actually do think would not be too dissimilar from this product. One of the two worst things in a can called "beer" I have had in the last few years.

I can't give it a zero or -1, so 1, generously.

Lemon Breaker pours a clear yellowish color, with not much head. Aroma is sweet, candy like lemon. Flavor is sweet, with a lemon candy flavor, and hints of straw like pale malts. A little flat. Overall, this is more of a lemon candy shandy, sweeter, with some nice beer flavors mixing in.
