Can purchased in St. Pete, FL. Pours a clear very dark brown color with ruby highlights and a dark beige head with good retention. Spotty lacing. Great peanut butter / nutty aroma. The flavor is full of dark roasted nuts. Lightly sweet. Rich, silky smooth and creamy mouthfeel. Semi-dry finish. Excellent. I could drink this all day, every day.

On tap at the Destin Beach Liquors. Pours black, with a pretty thick, dense, beige head. The aroma is bitter chocolate, coconut, peaches, pine, and walnuts. Sweet and fruity, with a woody bitterness. Medium to heavy body, with a sharp, acidic, and slick mouthfeel. This is a big and candy-like stout. Nice.

Slightly hazy pale yellow. Lime aroma. Unusual, taste is a little sweet lime and graham crackers, like pie crust.

My can from total wine st pete says key lime wheat ale. Clear pale yellow. Creamy head. Does have hints of lime on the nose. Taste is a tad lime citrus and rather mello actually. For a wheat ale, this has some manners. Very little ill wheat ale effects. Finishes with a slight astringent finish, so maybe it is a wheat ale. Not bad.
