Slightly pink and clear golden-ish coloured body with a thinnish, very fast-dying off-white head that only leaves a trace after a few seconds. Aroma of watermelon and funky fruity, fake sugared scents with a decidedly fruit-based sweetness in the nose at least, with some sour qualities and a dash of light wheat. Light-bodied; Strong soured and tart fruit notes dominate with a lot of the artificial soured Watermelon flavours along with a kick of grass and perfumey aspects, but the watermelon soured notes are the strongest of course, with a candy-like finish from the sugars and soured notes are enjoyable for someone who likes sours or the candy, itself. Aftertaste shows a nice tart and soured flavour with a lot of fake Watermelon notes and a good soured kick with some sweetness at the end. Overall, a nice and flavourful, soured and tart beer with some good dry aspects, but this of course is all about the soured, tart and fruity notes from the candy - as you would expect. I sampled this sixteen ounce pint-sized can, packaged on 15-September-2022 and purchased for US$3,99 from ABC Wine & Spirits in Lake Buena Vista, Florida yesterday on 28-December-2022 sampled by the pool here at my hotel in Orlando, Florida on 29-December-2022.

Clear pinkish-gold color with a thin white head that evaporates quickly to a sparse film. Spotty lace. Fruity and wheaty aroma. Light-bodied with flavors of watermelon candy, wheat and cherry. The finish is fruity with a watermelon aftertaste. Decent overall.
Can. Pours a hazy ruby with small white head. The aroma is pure sugar and watermelon soda. Thin body, cough syrup, pure sugar, no.
