Crystal clear deep golden and light copper coloured body with a nice two centimetre tall tan head that stays afloat for a while and really shows off zillion small bubbles below, in the perfectly clear amber tint. Aroma of super soft white grape juice with some light guava and lychee scents, but this is clearly all about the fruit, with not much malts here to speak of at all and no alcohol or sweetness - in the nose, at least. Medium-bodied; Somehow, a pretty rich malt body with a clean-drinking profile, with the super pungent fruit notes really coming through, as guava and even some mangosteen are noticeable, along with the deep grape flavours, all ending with a hint of alcohol and some sweetness. Aftertaste is slightly dry, but relatively easy-drinking, with a moderate sweetness, soft malts and a ton of fruit notes throughout - very nice and somehow working for such a big can! Overall, a very good product - much better than I was expecting and the tropically fruits of this, plus the clean malt bill makes this great and somehow I'm able to get the whole can down - I'd consider buying this one again! Great to sample super fresh and very local! I sampled this 19,2 ounce [TALL] can, can purchased from Total Wine in Potomac Yard (Alexandria), Virginia on 13-November-2022 for US$3,49, canned on 27-October-2022 with the tagline 'Party In The Back' and sampled at my house here in Washington a few blocks away on 06-December-2022.

12 ounce can. Orange gold pour. Frothy beige head. Tangy, tropical fruit aroma. Flavor is sweet citrus, mango, tangerine and apricot. Excessively sweet, almost artificially derived flavors. Sticky mouthfeel. Cloyingly sweet finish.

Stovepipe can from Kroger, 2 for $6. Golden-orange with a hint of haze and a small white head. Light tropical fruit, malt, copper, blood orange nose. Orange, mango, malt, metal, honey. Uh... it's fine.
