Bomber at bottle share. Cloudy golden pour, thin layer of white foam. Minty aroma with a hint of lime. Mint in the taste too, though not too strong, Lime zest. Two pretty strong flavors.

Can from the Utah Liquor Store in Bountiful.. pale copper pour with no head. Smells sweet and fruity, akin to a grape wine cooler. Lightly sweet up front with a moderately sour finish. Picking up the prickly pear which is nice. Kinda one dimensional, not too far off track from the base sour beer.

Can from my xmas advent calendar. Barely tart, nevermind sour, it was just a blast of oddly sweet, and semi tart coconut, with some funky lime zest. Mouth feel and carb were almost flat. Finish was watery, and bland. Not very good at all.

Milky beige pour, medium white head. Aroma on this one was wild. Fresh cut mango, pineapple, and papaya. Flavour is a bit of a let down, very grassy, subtle citrus, mild bitterness.

12oz can from Hops & Bottles. Cloudy golden pour, spotty head. Nutty aroma, light maple. Taste is sweet, maple first, then pecans. Coffee? Not so much. Creamy feel
