Pretty hazy golden and light straw coloured body with a fast-dying, two centimetre tall off-white head that leaves a very subtle lace on the sides of the glass. Aroma of very fresh blueberries, some caster and icing sugar, a hint of vanilla and lactose here with a crisp biscuity malt and light bready yeast bite as well, but the nose is very nice here and reminiscent of a blueberry muffin. Light to barely Medium-bodied; Slightly bitter and blueberry flavours show at first with a moderate but fairly subdued malt backbone that shows some grainy malts with more of a biscuity and much less of a wheat presence at all here. Aftertaste is pretty bitter for the style considering the blueberries and graininess contribute to the lightly harsh notes and give off a earthy finish with some light sugars here as well. Overall, a slightly dry, but pretty grainy and relatively earthy flavour shows through everything with some fresh blueberries, but those aren't the real driver here with more of an emphasis on the malts and bitterness with some light sugars here, but the flavour is about what I expected overall. Nice to sample and easily worth the drive back home here, but I might have been a little less happy had I flown home with this, but not a bad option considering this warm time of year. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Whole Foods in Charleston, South Carolina on 28-December-2021 for US$1,99 sampled at my house here in the start of the summer season up North here in Washington on 08-June-2022.

Fruity, bubblegum, and spicy aroma. Spicy, sweet, and alcohol flavor. A little different than traditional triples. Hides the alcohol well, one of the easier drinking triples.

Above-average Mexican lager, offering up notes of toasted corn and grass with a lemon-tinged yeasty undertone and a slight floral bitterness on the back end. Bread and corn in the fade. Decent, if conventional.

Poured a pale golden yellow color with a small white head. Aroma was some light grassy notes, with some grain, light sweet malts. Crisp finish, not too sweet. Decent.

Shaker pint draft at the Refuge on the Isle of Palms, South Carolina. The pour is a pale golden with not much of a white head. The aroma is faint cereal grain with a bit of hay. The taste is fresh and clean cereal grain malt with hay and a bit of citrus near the back. The palate is light bodied with low carbonation and a clean dry mineral finish. Solid.
