    Yeah. I'm curious to know what the deal is. I was trying to decipher what the image on the side of the package is on the website, but obviously that was only going to go so far. As if the illustration was meant to be scientifically accurate.

    Sixpoint is on my try everything they put out list (that is attainable without trading). It also helps that I am falling in love with cans over glass. I don't feel bad about putting my bottle away soon and can leave my cans out without fear of the light. Also, I can leave the cans on their side in the fridge. Finally, their participation on here seals the deal.

    Can't wait to try a great "Shandy"-esque beer, let's get RAD!

    Exactly, its a beer/juice blend, but any fermentation in that juice is *purely coincidental* ;-)

    think CYCLIQUIDS

    looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this

    Shane @Sixpoint do you add the juice post fermentation or is the juice added to the wort?

    Cheers!

    Also pairs well with Mega Man 3. Just sayin'

    Barrel Aged RAD is next. Look out! ;-)

    Chime in once you've tried it and let us know what you think!

    we're working on it....

    haha, glad we are in "the system" now - did you try the Bengali or Crisp yet?

    A fan of ours said he has been drinking it over ice. How did you enjoy yours?

    Now enjoy RAD the adult beverage as an adult! ;-)
