Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a dark golden color with a 1 inch head. Smell is of sour peaches. Taste is very sour, salt, a hint of peaches, desert dry. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall I must really lower this last score in order to rate to style. This beer has zero of the attributes I would expect from an IPA.

12 oz can picked up as part of a mix-6. Split with my wife, poured into snifters. Smells like sour peaches, tastes similar along with some salinity, honey (not sweet), and something that I assume must be paw-paw. Very sour. No hops or IPA flavor, but that's fine with me.

This beer taste like sour apple pie with an exquisite honey finish. On the can it reads "lactose, peaches, pretzels, paw paw, and honey, which I didn't notice until after I drank it. I really can't taste peach , but more like green apples in this beer. The carbonated sourness covers the alcohol taste, making this beer seem like 4 percent and not a 7.7 ipa. If you like sours and gose' then this beer is for you. I will definitely have this one again.

The can is funny because I think the story comes from somebody on untapped up gave the beer two stars and said a sour hazy ipa wasn't their style. That's the thing about those apps. I dont even see people give genuine reviews on there. It's pretty dumb. But overall the beer is good.
The taste is the best part with a cinnamon, apple cider finish.... it's an interesting blend. And it's not too tart.

Apparently it's made with peaches, pretzels, honey.

Here is the article bashing untapped lol
