A 16 oz can from my main beer shop, Destihl used to be easy to find in town. Not so these days. A snifter from a now-gone Houston brewery in place and I pour. An indistinct orange-gold with a proper top of completely white foam. The fragrance is strongly mango with some citrus and grain. The taste is decent although the sensation is somewhat thin. Mango of course followed by a nice amount of hops, lime, crackers and a hint of cut grass. Pleasant, not earthshaking.

(Can) Golden colour, slightly hazy, with frothy off-white head. Fruity, slightly spicy nose with notes of pineapple, coconut and citrus. Fruity, tart taste with pineapple, coriander, coconut, lime and a light saltiness emerging after a while. No bitterness. Light body, dry. Refreshing. The slighty salty dryness gives it a good balance. Nice one.

Spice builds a little as you drink it. A little more rounded flavor than the base pickle beer last week.

It’s pickle juice that gets you drunk. Not quite as dill as it smells.

Why did I buy this beer? I don’t even like pickles! I am such a ratings whore. Pours hazy yellow with a small white head. It has an intense dill pickle aroma. Oof. The flavor is horrific. I’d imagine if you drink the pickle brine from a jar of dill pickles, it tastes like this beer. Absolutely disgusting. I managed two sips and poured it out. I rinsed the glass with water a few times and it still smells of pickles. I would award negative points if I could. This is an abomination.
Is it fair that someone who doesn’t like pickles is rating a pickle beer? Maybe not, but life isn’t fair.

Can to snifter.
Appearance: glossy yellow color with a rapidly dissipating head which did not leave any lace
Aroma: smelled like a lemon bar - rich creamy pastry sweetness and those lemon sour to tart feels
Flavor: semi-sweet but also an ample amount of tart and sour tones help to round it out; mild lemony aftertaste
Texture: between light and medium bodied; mostly a sipper; quick tart abrasion on my tongue but doesn't seem too distracting; finishes semi-crisp but enough of the "lemon bar" character to control the beer
Overall: I like this one, it's like drinking liquified lemon bar, I guess that's what the brewer was going for. I'd bang again preferably on a Spring or Summer night.
