Had to try this since pilsnerroge gave it a great rating, hehehehhh. From a stovetop can, this stuff pours clear pale like a clear lager. The nose tho is something else. Artificial punch permeating the the environment. First taste is artificial fruit punch on top of big bitter poorly made IPA. Its like somebody made a batch of IPA and it turned out all wrong and the boss said just dump in some artificial fruit flavoring in there. First off I don' t like IPA to begin with, and I think the fruit flavoring makes it a little better but hey, what - ever. Just another terribly on style IPA with some icing on top; happy bullshit to you too! There you have it. Does have some co2 in there and it provides a slight warming sensation if yer not already warm enough in Florida. At least I'll get a little brain buzz with the 9%, probably the only thing I find advantageous.

12 oz. can. Pours a cloudy yellow-gold color with a white head and good retention. Barely any lacing. Juice and pine aroma. The taste follows the nose: Light juicy notes up front with light hoppy pine notes in the finish. Drying finish. Good balance for the style. Medium body. Medium-light carbonation. Moderate but soft bitterness. The 6.5% ABV is well hidden.
