Can. Amber is color with a two finger head. Aroma is mostly citrus fruit with hints of lime. Taste is mostly lime but there are hints of graham cracker and vanilla.

Very clear orange colored body with a lightly coppered glow, all with a thinnish, just off-white head that fades fairly quickly and barely leaves a sliver on top, all with a faint orange glow with some nice bubbles coming up. Aroma of super dank key limes, brine, salt, malt, icing sugar, yeast and a bit more funky lime notes - perhaps the leaves? Medium-bodied; Very grassy and herbal profile at first that really does show the lime leaves and some subtle peppery and spice characteristic, maybe just coriander seed though, with some yeast notes, a dry, fresh-cut grass bite and a little sweetness at the end, but the limes dominate here at the end as well, but real limes this time with some tart aspects. Aftertaste shows a crisp tart lime bite, but the sweetness persists and makes it a bit more robust with some malt and readiness towards the very end. Overall, a nice and crisp, dry, yet soured lime-based beer with a good deal of malts and yeast coupled with bunches of sweetness to go with the light brine and very soured, tart lime flavors to make this complex and enjoyable throughout. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Total Wine in Alexandria, Virginia on 02-November-2020 for US$2,79 sampled at my house here in Washington on 05-June-2021.

Lime nose, juniper accents. Hazy amber, thin head. Pronounced juniper. Light body, easy carbonation. A fair facsimile of a Tom Collins, even though presumably that wasn't the goal.
Dark orange gold pour. Thin foam. Orange peach pineapple grapefruit nose. Grapefruit pineapple lemon flavor. Vanilla lime finish. Easy carbonation
