Can/Fest. A- Lemon cleaner. A- Yellow color, cloudy liquid, white head. T- Lemonade, sugary. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, sweet finish. O- Quite good for a shandy. Loads of lemonade. That fake country time lemonade powder kind of taste. Really super refreshing. A little bit is better than a lot a bit. Maybe a guilty pleasure.

Sampled from the tap at GTMW 2022. Pours a clear deep brown with a brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has tons of boozy sweet grains with bourbon and toffee coming through. Flavor is bourbon forward with growing sweet grains, toffee and a touch of caramel.

Enjoyed at home after a busy & stressful few days. This one doesn't really hit the mark, but the can art is cool. Run of the mill DDH IPA, lightly bitter finish, not much in terms of flavor profile. Just OK.
