Bottle from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours gold with a slight white head. It does smell like watermelon. Med minus body. It’s so sweet it’s like Jolly Rancher candy. Meh.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a bright golden color with a medium sized foamy white head that faded quickly and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was sweet and tangy melon jolly rancher. The flavor was bitter, dryish, yeasty, almost nutty with a faint vague melon presence and an artificial melon jolly rancher presence. Medium length melon jolly rancher finish. Medium body.

Bottle. Jolly Rancher strawberry-watermelon aroma. Clear gold with a moderate, quickly dissipating white head. Watered down artificial fruit flavored malt. Light body, soft carbonation.

Bottle. Cantaloupe malt aroma. Golden yellow with small head. Lightly sweet melon with merest hint of malt. Smells pretty good but minimal flavor.

Clear, gold.....heavy, off-white head. Watermelon, cantaloupe aroma. Flavour is the same..... Very subdued, a little salt, not overly sweet. Fairly decent, but merely as a thirst quencher... Not beery.

Pours gold into a shaker. White head with little retention recedes to skim surface. Watermelon and marshmallow aromas. Soft with sweet and sour watermelon front to back. Medium length mildly bitter finish.
