    It's the surprise release of New Belgium Shift Light. Fewer calories than regular Shift.

    OOh. That's some shabby QA/QC at the brewery, which means you got yourself there a low fill that is exhibiting pressure and altitude changes that happened during shipping.
    That thing is going to be oxidized and nasty tasting.
    Show it the brewery.

    Especially since it's from Fort Collins, 5000 feet in elevation. Shipped to CO or from anywhere else, it probably wouldn't have mattered.

    You displeased the Beer Gods.

    This was the equivalent of a warning - a shot across the bow if you will. If you do not change your ways your favorite brewery may get it in the neck!
