Jelly Bones
Post & Beam Brewing

From a 16oz can, undated. Purchased at the brewery 07/16/22. Served in a ‘NH Pint Days’ pub glass.

Pours a hazy, opalescent orange with two honest fingers of sudsy foam. Retention is unexpectedly excellent (relative to the style) abiding for several minutes before settling into a fizzy cap and a thin, slippery sheet of lacing. Instant bonus points for actually looking (more or less) like beer.

Nose is fruity, floral, candy-like. Soft, delicate aroma of sweet fruit - it’s faint, and whether it’s either plum or peach I really couldn’t say but, what there is of it, it is nice.

Taste doesn’t quite rise to the level of the nose but it’s pleasant enough. Watery and acidic; tasting underripe peach and plum, cherry, and a sour dairy note along the lines of crème fraiche.

Feel is watery-thin and tacky with ample fine, prickly carbonation. Not entirely unlike watered-down or diluted fruit juice, or the rinse water you washed your fruit in, only carbonated - and with a fine chalky pumice of peach fuzz coating my teeth and gums.

Overall, tasty and refreshing with bonus points for looking like real beer. I understand that I made the mouthfeel sound awful but, really, it was fine and that’s just me being a dick.

Sample at the source.
Dirty light pink in color with a touch of haze and a minimal white head. Tart lemony light bread with lots of berry aroma and flavor.
