Opalescent pale yellow colour, large, dense ecru-ish white head; aroma of tangerine and orange juice, jaffa drink, candies, some dried strawberry, and dried fruity notes; taste is quite the same with some hoppy bitterness; a bit too mich for me, but otherwise enjoyable

Canned. Honestly didn't feel this was as bad as people say but I don't gotta have it again.

19.2 oz can Joe Canal's, 3/19/25. Hazy yellowish-orange. Strong lace. Artificial tropical juice. Kind of odd in a way that's hard to explain other then it's candied sugar and artificial fruit and just not very good. Mouthfeel is sticky and hot. Somewhat unpleasant. Not my thing. I think this is the worst of the various overly boozy Voodoo Ranger beers I've tried.

Dark hazy gold with a three-finger head. Aroma is very fruity. Taste is also fruity. Doesn't really taste like an IPA.

Aromas are kind of a strange combination that doesn't quite work of hops and fruit punch. Likewise flavors. My impression is, not much was put into R&D and just thought let's throw it at the wall and see if it sticks. And don't even give me started on the label with a skeleton in costume that's being sold to 14-year-old boys.

Large can (UK pint size, 568ml) from a supermarket, drank in Laguna Hills at my daughters on 13th July 2024. Hazy light golden body, white affair on top. Pineapple aroma and initial taste, alcohol bite kicks in next, actually it's more of an alcohol 'burn'. I don't remember the other Voodoo Ranger brews being this 'harsh' with the alcohol, almost ruins the experience. Had to get some salty crackers and cheese to help me finish the can.

--Sample, thanks oh6gdx! -- Hazy pale golden, small head. Aroma of bubble gum. Mid sweet with surprisingly light body and clean mouthfeel. Bubblegum and pineapple candy. Mild heat in a finish without bitterness. WTF?
