The pint can now emptied into a clear glass liter mug, an opaque and dull ruby color is observed. Without any references, this looks like there's some lactose included. Credit given already because it's self described as a smoothie style beer. That's what it looks and smells like. There's no head, no glass lacing and realistically, no high expectations. It comes across nearly exactly as expected. The taste is berry, front to back. Whether it's some lactose, or a healthy dose of puree, this has some body. Yet, somehow this falls short. Not only is it not sour, it's barely tart. The berry taste is so muddled (and that doesn't mean bad, necessarily) that the three included berries are indistinguishable. A certainly nice and certainly unimpressive brew.

They are searching their own self on that one.
It is like if.....
-Hey dude... let's do a beer with berries
-Yeah Yeah... and let's call it Katy Berry ... funny he ??
-yeah Yeah dude ! Let's do it....
-Ok I print the sticker while you do the beer .
-Nice ! Let's go !

Insert a vynil scratch ... beer is bad....
Gosh .... Doh !!

Honnestly now... good sour feel. The Smoothie side is not that present. Don't breath while you drink.... it will be more enjoyable. The blend is not good. The feel is not that great neither.
Sad... normally they are better. It can't be perfect !

Updated rating 2 days later: I was at Lures again and ordered another 6 oz pour. This time it came looking like a "regular" smoothie sour. Tons of fruit puree visible, but it more or less looked "normal" with a small head and none of the foaming action. Taste was basically the same, with a weird sourness, almost bitter or metallic. So, still not great, but much better than the previous foam I was served.

Original review (1.25, 3.75, 3.00, 1.50, 1.50 = 2.63) 6 oz draft pour at Lures Bar & Grille. It came to the table looking like chunky fruit puree foam, foaming up almost as if it were boiling. I didn't take a sip for a while and it eventually settled down to no more than 2 ounces of liquid. The "lacing" consisted of fruit puree sticking to the sides of the glass. Aroma was tart berries. Taste was similar with a strange bitterness, like too much blackberry seeds got ground up into the concoction. Mouthfeel was straight-up fruit puree. Overall, there was nothing beer-like about this and it did not succeed in being a good smoothie sour either. Fail.
