Tap @ the brewery. Nice head with good duration. Color is amber. Aroma and taste are berries, lactose acid, fruits and malt. Nice sour finish.

Beer #9600! Super clear light amber and deeper golden coloured body with a very nice glow, and a super thin, less than single centimetre tall pure white head that fades fast, all above a completely clear body. Aroma of fresh strawberries, some citrus in the form of sour candy and a dash of very soft wheat notes, but very little else - the fruit smells nice, but without any real malt support. Light-bodied; Very thin, super juicy and lemony flavour at first with a big bitterness and pungency from the citrus, especially the sour candy notes with some dry funk towards the end, but the strawberries also show, and a dash of flowers at the end, but this is very easy-going and extremely mild throughout, except for the fruit notes. Aftertaste is very straight forward with a dry note, a lot of citrus fruit bitterness and acidity from the lemons and a kick of fresh strawberries juice as well (no puree here) that adds some nice flavours, but not much complexity to a simplistic, clear and relatively body-less beer. Overall, still a nice beer to sample and while juicy, not showing enough body, complexity, malt support or variance in the flavours here to make this great, but nice to sample from Smutty! I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Trader Joe's in Richmond (Short Pump), Glen Allen, Virginia on 23-July-2022 for US$4,00 sampled in my hotel room here in [inner harbor] Baltimore, Maryland on 25-October-2022.

Can from the Packie lightly hazy dark golden color with a hint of orange to it and a thin bubbly white head that recedes. Lemon and berry with a light tartness. Not much beer tasty but pedestrian for a sour.
