Can shared by CLW—thanks, Chris! Murky dark orange-red with no head, white residue across top of liquid and film on glass. Aroma is strong pistachio, soft serve and sourness that reminds me of someone vomiting pistachio ice cream/pepperoni pizza. Taste is strong raspberry, soft serve, pistachio. Smooth, thick texture (fine particulates), soft carbonation, finish as taste. Thankfully, doesn’t taste half bad (nothing sour about it) but aroma is off putting as is appearance and, to some extent, the palate. I hope this is a one off error in judgement or a flyer and not a jump-the-shark moment.

16 oz. Can. Aroma is exclusively pistachio nut. Now as a whole, I love this brewery. But this is a complete swing and a miss. What the hell are they thinking here? Soft serve ice cream? Really? Really? The flavor is lactic acid, pistachio and sour raspberry. The most bizarre and unappealing thing I have ever had from spyglass.

Thanks Chris aroma is sweet papaya, vanilla, hint of nuts. Taste follows, not overly sweet or tart. Well balanced for the combination.
