Bottle, courtesy of Cunningham. It's an unclear straw colored beer with a dense two-finger white head. Some lacing. The aroma has quite a lot of raspberry and a good dash of lime, both diminishing quite quickly, but still pleasant. Some grainy pale malts in the back, along with a light grassy and piney touch. Even a hint of that plasticy, rubbery scent from an inflatable mattress or pool animal. It's medium bodied and lightly acidic on the palate, with some sweetness. A bit heavy on the carbonation perhaps, but it works well in the summer heat. Medium body. Lasting finish with some of that rubbery, plasticy hints but mostly fruityness. Pleasant and refreshing, easy drinkable too. A bit dull though. 220630
