    Also, Blushing Monk by Founders. Wouldn't think it was a raspberry fruit beer; it sounds more like a quad or something. Founders is probably my favorite brewery, but I don't know what it is with their misleading names.

    That one actually makes sense to me .Dreamsickle was a name brand for a creamsickle style icecream .Vanilla icecream cover in orange sherbert. Used to love them.

    Given the varied nature of craft beer names and the sometimes esoteric backstories/explanations I have very little expectation in the way of the nature of a beer based on the name unless it's a flavor or style term.

    La Cumbre's Male Stripper. I thought I was getting a male stripper and instead got an IPA.

    Yea, the lemony flavor tasted powdery and artificial to me. Yet I read that this flavor comes from lemondrop hops. If it's all natural hop flavor, then it's unfortunate that it gives this impression. I usually like Stone's beer, Delicious being an exception.

    I was surprised to see that there are eight other beers with Sex Panther in their names.

    Any Budweiser in general. It does NOT taste like pot, nor was l any smarter after drinking one.

    Leinenkugel's Sunset Wheat doesnt taste like a wheat beer. Tastes like orange soda and its ironic since they have a Orange Shandy.
