Bottle: Poured a clear light brown ale with a nice large off-white foamy head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma of caramelized with light smoke notes is enticing. Taste is a nice mix of smokey notes with some caramelized malt with subtle notes of residual sugar notes. Body is light with good carbonation. Nice session with light smoke notes that could have been more prominent.

I could smell the watermelon sweetness at the pop of the can, but when it was poured, it changed to a mix a sweat and feces in wet panties. Pretty gross. Was clear at first, but became hazy at last pour with a light golden colour. Small white head, no lacing. Damn, that smell !! Thankfully the taste is much better... but just not well-balanced. Watermelon at first with some hops in the middle, maybe light wheat, but in the aftertaste... I taste chocolate notes. Not bad, but way too weird all over. Alright, maybe I feel a little cheese in there... in the nose - to help out things a little. Maybe not. Starting to lean on some watermelon Jolly Rancher, but not enough to save this. Would not have again (and I have had other watermelon beers before that I would have again).
