Bought locally. Best by September 14th.
Pours a straw yellow with a finger of foam, retention and lacing are good.
Smell is big pickles, hard to get past that smell wise
Taste is fairly light pickle, base beer with the usual grain.
Light bodied, close to watery, foam is gone, lacing is gone. 1 6pack is more than enough for me.

Pale yellow with giant white head. Vinegar, dill, cucumber, biscuit malt, and straw aroma. Mildly sweet cucumber, biscuit malt, mildly sour vinegar, and mildly bitter straw and dill flavor. Body on the light side. Flavor not as strong as the aroma.

Clearance rack at Albertsons, $4 for a six pack. Clear golden pour, fizzy head. Aroma is pickle juice, dill. Taste seems toned down compared to the aroma, sour, dill, and pale malts .

Disconcertingly sweet, lacking much in the department of briney dill goodness. Pickle-ish, sure, but mostly a watered-down gimmick beer. Who authorized this?

12 oz can. Aroma is garlic, dill. Taste is garlicky with dill not as pronounced. Thin and watery. Way too much garlic.
