12 ounce can from Woodman's Appleton, 6/21/21. Murky orange, large frothy off-white head, good retention. Aroma of grapefruit and grain. Taste is melon, grapefruit, passionfruit, grain. Low bitterness, juicy, well balanced. Some mint and glue peek in at the very end. Overll quite nice. I like this series. Keep doing it Ale Asylum.

12 oz can, received in trade from Drake. Pours a lightly hazy daark copper color with a big white head. Aroma is strong and pungent with spiced mangoes, passionfruit, and musty pears. Taste is rather different from anything else I have ever sampled. I get musty mixed fruits featuring passionfruit and mango. The palate is a bit on the thin side and the carbonation is soft. Overall: very weird--but good. I requested this beer based on the stupid naming and I have no regrets, I love a new taste.

Pour is a dark orange with a large white head. Aorma is a big pine hop. Flavor is more pine hop with a bit of sweet caramel malt. Not real bitter but that ok with me. Old school Sierra Nevada vibes here.

In the can the aromas are melon and stone fruit hops but in the glass that disappears and in their place is resin and dry grain. Flavors are somewhat similar, lightly sweet going towards a mild bitterness. Decent carbonation and body. Good enough beer.

Yes, its a sign of the times. Scare everybody, make fear! $3 at JRs for the pounder can as pictured. Nose is somewhat friendly mild hop olfactory. Taste is a fairly strong initiation that tries to be IPA but never gets there. The eye on this is lighter hazy pale that makes me think of a NEIPA. Its almost muddy; certainly more muddy than the average NEIPA. Yes, after each slug is a medium long bitter feeling in the back of the throat. At least there is some co2 in there to make it almost refreshing. Of course we all know that in an old successful euro country empire, a V was really pronounce like a U.......Go figger. Lets give all those who have made a living publicizing this fvck-demic the middle finger! An american country boy can survive.

12oz can. Quite an intense strawberry tone, truly different hop tone. Not sure if it is the Trident or just the general combination or if there is even flavoring added. Soft wheat and oat tones, easy drinking, no bitterness. Quite an odd candy strawberry ,peach, guava aroma. Unique.
