A little disappointing. Much closer to Shandy than expected. What did I expect? Something like a grapefruity pale ale, light, hoppy, with some grapefruit notes. But this was pushing very close to grapefruit juice in mouthfeel, plus that sharp dry (low sweetness) acidity you get in grapefruit juice, with just a touch of pale malts, minimal bitterness. Not excited to drink this whole 6 pack. Golden, minimal head, and very cloudy.

12 oz. can. Pours an opaque dark brown color with a tight tan head and good retention. Good lacing. Aroma of roasted coffee and roasted malts. Similar flavor. Dark roasted coffee flavor dominates with some roasted malt to help balance a little. I like the stout, but the coffee flavor is too strong for me. Smooth and clean. Medium body. Drop the coffee and this would be really good.

Nice grapefruit. Pours golden with good head and lacing. Some caramel, bitter end. Nice old school IPA. A little too much sweetness at the end like you’ve just been lied to.

On tap at Hunah Day. Pours a hazy orange with medium off white head that lasts. The aroma is watermelon, pine, citrus, resin. Slick body, sweet malt, watermelon, light bitterness, odd but refreshing.

12oz can. Poured a really nice looking orange color with a medium white head. A little maltier than I expected. However, the flavor wasn't. Juicy mango, light earthy notes. Tasty.

12 oz. can purchased at Rally in St Pete, FL. Pours a mostly clear light gold color with a white head and very good retention. Almost no lacing. Pretty standard lager aroma. The flavor is very lager-like too. Very mellow, muted pilsner malt flavor. Not crisp or sharp. Not a whole lot of anything. Generic. No bad flavors. A bit flat.

Taster at the Craft Bar in Destin. Pours black, with a small, dense, tan head. The aroma is dark roast coffee, toasted pecans, leather, and chalk. Sweet and malty, with a mellow, earthy bitterness. Medium to heavy body, with a sharp, grainy mouthfeel. This is a quality and mellow stout.
