$1.95 can, Wine Warehouse. Pale gold, soft white head. Aroma is somewhat artificial (organic, so probably not) coconut and lime, salt, grass. Flavor is somewhat artificial lime, coconut, salt, grass, oyster cracker. Fine, but seems artificial (again, organic, so probably not).

Can drunk 5/27/18.
Bright, cranberry-raspberry-tinted red. High clarity and a small, off-white, pink-tinged head that recedes quickly to nothing.
Stale, bready malt, heavy seltzer and fully attenuated, underwhelming cherry juice fills up the nose, providing nothing of interest, clarity or brightness. No malt backing, possible hints of diacetyl and nothing in the way of sour.
In the mouth it's buttery, thin, stale, tired, lactic and seltzer-heavy with bare, fully-attenuated cherry character that adds only brief citric/malic acid and light tartness. Terrible, as always, from Shipyard.

On tap at the Ginger Man, pours a clear pale golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out astringent citrus hops, with some citrusy perfumey notes. Flavour is very citrusy, perfumey and cleaner-like, with vegetal notes galore and fuzzy peaches. Perfumey and fuzzy peaches on the finish. Not very integrated. Very fuzzy and obscured. Not overly well-calibrated.

Draft pour at Spacebar. Poured a hazy golden yellow color with a small off-white head. Aroma was tropical fruit notes. Citrus. Super juicy. Lots of tropical fruit. Really nice. Mango with some bitterness. Would never have thought about picking this one up before trying it. It's worth it.
