16 fl oz can, via Beer52. Drank at home on 23rd May 2020 during the virus Lock In. No real head on my pinkish bodied pour. Floral aroma with a light orange leaning. Taste is fruity, again with an orange leaning to the fore; different and enjoyable.

Beautiful pink and slightly orange coloured body, all perfectly clear, with a thinnish, one to two centimetre tall off-white frothy head that fades very fast. Aroma of grass, pine, flowers, soap, hay and a touch of sugars from the fruit. Medium-bodied; Relatively pungent hop flavours at first with some good citrus and tangerine notes along with a dash of pepper noticeable, coupled with a very subtle amount of hay and grass, but enough to make the palate dry and floral. Aftertaste shows a fairly nice balance of hops and malt, with the hops bitter and pungent up front, then fading fast, but the malt is fairly smooth and soft and making this drink more of a plain IPA than anything around 8,0 per cent. Overall, a smooth-ish IPA that borders on Imperial status, and has a noticeable tangerine bite, but no floral or tart hibiscus notes at all, aside from the slightly pink colour. Nice to try, especially fresh and a good beer, but not worth chasing after! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Total Wine in Manassas, Virginia on 28-April-2020 for US$4,99 sampled at my house here in Washington on 08-May-2020.

Tap at Clinton Hall 51st. I stopped in Charlottesville on way from nyc to Florida so this is fitting. Pinkish orange brew. Tastes of florals, red fruit, light malt and candy. Ok

Pours a very nice scarlet from a can. Light fruit tea aroma similar flavor, dry. Thin and watery not terribly flavorful. Okay beer.

On tap at Hughies. Pours a clear amber with medium frothy off white head that lasts. The aroma is strong hibiscus, pine, citrus, resin. Medium body, dank, hibiscus, nice sweetness, bitter finish, good.

Can as Malibu Nights, 7.0%. Wine Warehouse. Pours orange-pink... large off-white very soft head. Cat piss and pine aroma. Flavor is pine, wonky funk - rotting fruit: not only citrus but something else. Some sort of citrus rind, perhaps ruby grapefruit. It’s weird.
