Yes, this 16 oz pounder can does say beer on it but mine says 9%, not 6 as listed here. Specifically, Wild Ohio Wild T strawberry pineapple beer to be clear; that's how its labeled on the can. Color is clear pale with a slight tint of pink. Nose is odd pineapple fruit, almost farmy at that. First taste is a boozy thwack, yea baby, you know this is a potent brew. Even has some warming sensations coming in there. In the middle, I suddenly I get a big kick of artificial strawberry. This is certainly a weird beer, if you can call it such. Near the finish, I'm curious who would buy such a beer. This is mysteriously mystifying for a beer. Very unique. Tea is certainly there but WTF with this being called a beer? I guess for tick, I'll pick it up off the clearance rack, hahehehh. There, you have it; to be beer or not to be beer. HAH!

$1 off the clearnce rack at JR's. Can, pop the lid for a weird farmy nose. Pours rather clear pale and I'm surprised its not colored, considering it has beet sugar in it. Taste is something odd as well. It starts off sortah sweet and then goes into this perfumy mode that I can't figger out. Something like drinking perfume laced beer. The unique near rotten farmy thing on the nose, does not follow in the taste. Pretty good level of carbonation in the middle. That is followed up by a processed feel that tends to stick to your mouth towards the finish. No sense of beets in this whatever. Except that its fizzy, not sure If I would call this beer or a fortified off-flavored soda pop. In the end, I'm just not getting this uncanny brew. Will not buy again.

12oz can pours out purple pink topped with a small fizzy head. Nose is big sweet jammy blueberry and a little tartness. Taste is more of the nice sweet jammy blueberry notes and a touch of acid.

Pours a reddish purple color with minimal head. The aroma is full of blueberries. The flavor is sweet with lots of blueberries and tea. It’s alright. My wife loved it.

Pours a slightly hazy pinkish-orange color with a thin white head that evaporates quickly to a sparse outer ring. Spotty lace. Fruit and bourbon aroma. Medium body with flavors of cherry soda, bourbon and vanilla. The finish is like a fizzy mild Old Fashioned. Decent overall.
