Can pour from trade with Johnnnniee--thanks, John! It's a deeply hazy yellow with nice sparkle, fizzy finger-width white head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong vanilla and sweet and tart lemon with late graham cracker. Taste is strong sweet lemon (like Lemon Pledge) along with tart lemon and vanilla but all of a very synthetic nature. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with thin texture, lively carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, this is like lemon meringue pie that you would find as a single serving offering in a dollar store from a brand you've never heard of. Some elements are here and you know that it's in the neighborhood of lemon meringue pie but flavors are out of balance and are really synthetic. Flavor doesn't deliver on aroma. Too carbonated. A bit of a train wreck.

Can from Half time shared with Paul. Hazy lemon yellow with a small bubbly white head. Bitter lemon and pith with light metallic notes. Sweet lactose didn't really nail the pie in a glass decent enough beer.
