Murky orangy, looking like carrot juice with bubbles running up the glass, and a dirty film left. Tropical fruit nose with the mix of mango, raspberry and apricot. The sourness comes out in the taste with some nice lingering. Not as thick as the Bas-Canada versions, but still nice. The fruits are nicely blended in the flavours with the apricot showing a touch more that in the nose. A nice refreshing, fruity-sour smoothie beer.

Draft: Poured a hazy/cloudy light reddish color ale with minimal head. Aroma of fresh fruit puree of raspberry and mango with some subtle tart notes is refreshing. Taste is also a mix of fresh raspberry and mango pure with light tart notes. Body is full with no filtration and very light carbonation. Very refreshing smoothie beer.

(473ml can from Alimentation L'Impact, Quebec City) Pours opaque salmon-orange with a small head of thick paler froth and some small fruit particles for lace. Aroma is crushed tart-ish raspberries with a fair amount of sweet mango and peach flesh, light apricot tartness and some depth from fruit skins and piney mango resins. Flavour is more apricot-forward, slighlty sweet and lightly to moderately tart, mango filling in some sweetness while the raspberry acts as an accent rather than dominating. Malt body is pretty retiring, little lactic edge to it, finish is lightly tart with some mango sweetness and a little bitter berry pip and fuzzy apricot skin vibes. Medium-bodied, not thicc nor thin for a smoothie, with light carbonation. Solid shelfie smoothie that comes closer to top examples of the style in texture than most, nice balance.
