Hazy like a muddy new england IPA. Smell is off and odd. Spicy stuff. Taste is very weird, rubbery. Chemicals. Very different. Not sher what to think of this. Very different and unique flavors. Not repeatable.

Can courtesy of JStax, thanks! Dark brown color thick beige head, pours like 10W40. Rick chocolate fudge and cookie aroma. Taste is sweet chocolate milk made with double dose Hersheys. Chewy mouthfeel. Tasty and rich. Very sweet but it works

Can shared at Lucky Bamboo share. Pours a hazy, thick violent/magenta with a pink head. Huge boysenberry, underripe blueberry and blackberry aromas that are seemingly endless. Smooth and juicy on the palate. Quite thick like a smoothie. Lovely tart berry and full-flavored berry flesh with some light skin astringency but mostly bright fruit. Lingering boysenberry on the finish with some light skin/seed dryness that lingers. Really enjoyed this one!
