Braced by bright grapefruit flavor and gentle tartness, this beer reigns supreme. Finishing crisp and citrusy, it sets a new standard for crushable.

Can thanks to Drake! Finally feeling normal after my first vax shot yesterday at 10am... so about 33 hours later - I'll take it! Hazy pale gold with a white head. Juicy grapefruit, light green nose. Tart grapefruit, bread crust, light grasses. Simple, not a ton of flavor, but what's there is good.

12 oz can purchased as a single at Bier Station in Kansas City, Missouri. The pour is a hazed yellow orange with a one inch white foamy head that falls slow. The aroma is grapefruit tart and sour, and that’s about it. The taste is initially tart, then moves to more of a grapefruit soda and then additional lactic tart sour. The palate is light bodied with effervescent carbonation and a tart clean finish. Easy drinking.

2$ can form chalet. Look is slightly hazy & pale. Nice big gently fading foaming whit head. Taste is fine grapefruit and its nothing like bitter grapefruit hops, its just nice friendly easy going grapefruit juice flavored beer. Mind you, it is not sweet nor is it dull, its a bright bold successful attempt at a radler and its terribly on style. Now, to say this is a wild brew? I don't think so. Its actually a plain old country shandy radler. Thanks dudes at surly, good job! Enjoyable and refreshing finish.

On tap. Hazy yellow appearance. Quite a lot of grapefruit and it is lightly tart. Light and refreshing.

The Aromas are grapefruit, lemon and skunk. Flavors are more lemony than grapefruit, tart and on the dry side. Okay body carbonation and finish.

Sampled from the tap at First Draft Minneapolis. Pours a slightly hazy light yellow with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has strong sweet and tart grapefruit with a bit of sweet grain underlying. Flavor has lots of sweet grapefruit with a slight tartness and earthy grains backing.

12 ounce can from Woodman's Appleton, 6/4/19. Hazy orange, thin creamy white head, fair retention. Aroma of strong grapefruit, pith, pale malt. Taste is grapefruit, tannins, lemon, pale malt, honey. Medium bodied, low tartness. Weird.

12oz bottle. Pretty much tastes like alcoholic seltzer water, maybe Squirt? A really unimpressive offering from Surly, who usually come pretty correct. No body, dry and hollow. No sour depth either. Grapefruit extract, not much else. Not one I'd revisit.
