12 oz can from Total Wine - Daytona. Pours a cloudy gold color with a small white head and poor retention. Zero lacing. Citrus pulp aroma. Tropical juice flavor, as the name suggests. I can't really pick out the mango or guava flavors, but it's a nice tropical mix. The wheat base beer is lighter and thinner than average. Definitely more of a fruit beer than a wheat ale. Not very beery. Medium-light body. Low carbonation. Zero bitterness. Smooth and clean. Decent fruity beer.

Draft at Raglan Road. Very light clear yellow and small head. Nose and tastes of next to nothing. Barely beer. But for early in morning I guess ok

12 oz. can from the brewery. Thanks, Ashley! Pours an opaque strawberry preserves color with a small khaki head and decent retention. Very little lacing. Yes, it smells exactly like a PB&J sandwich. And, yes, it tastes like a PB&J sandwich too. It's sweet, but not overly sweet, and it's not tart either. One of the better attempts at this flavor. Sure, it's gimmicky, and not for everyday drinking, but it's a good break from the norm. Medium body. Low carbonation. No bitterness.

Bottle at the July 2023 DC RB Tasting. Poured a nearly pitch black color, maybe dark cola, small wispy head. Aroma was super big chocolate notes, roast, woody vanilla. Dark, bakers chocolate with woody vanilla barrel. Robust and tasty.

750ml bottle pours a murky black with some beige head. Nose is malty, spicy, some black pepper, inky kinda, some neutral barrel or wood. Flavor is malt, pepper is there but more the character and less the heat, sour cherry. Full, hot finish.

Can. Pour looks like grapefruit juice with a thin head. Slight off citrus grapefruit nose, difficult to tell. Taste is definitely fruity with an almost tart feel to it. Even seems to have grapefruit pulp in it. Some carbonation, but not much. Middle continues to be off fruit with a mild tart effect. Can't identify the kinds of fruit in here. Becomes difficult near the end, its starting to get on my nerves. Not sure if I care for this even tho its carries some tartness with it. In the end, its more tolerable than most domestic wheat ales but it's still irritating none the less. BTW, it probably should not be listed as a straight away wheat ale, its quite flavored with something, not sure what.
