So this is actually in the database? I kinda looked it up as a joke, holy shit. Of course I'm also drinking it as a joke, so also holy shit. Also it tastes like holy shit, mixed with jolly ranchers and sour candy. You know that face you make? This is that. Also its pink.

16 oz. can from a gas station. Pours a crystal clear strawberry color with a fizzy pink head that vanished instantly. Zero lacing. Aroma of pure sugar water. Super sweet strawberry candy flavor with a light alcohol burn in the finish. No beer flavor here. Another example of pure alco-pop. Great for people who don't like beer. The 10.0% ABV is surprisingly well hidden. Thin, watery body. Lightly carbonated. Zero bitterness. Don't let it get warm. Tick.

16oz can, courtesy of the greatest Secret Santa of all time, has no discernable appearance as it's still it the tall towering can. The modest aroma offers candy lime and sugary lemon flowing into plenty of candy lime. The taste delivers similar smooth tangy lime followed by terrible notes of smooth sweet booze. oof. If only the booze notes met up with the lime and lemon to create some blend and balance this would have met with higher scores.

23.5oz can, courtesy of the greatest Secret Santa of all time, has no discernable appearance as it's still in the tall towering can. The modest aroma offers up clouds of melon fruitiness as well as apple and melon like hard fruit candy. The taste delivers the requisite melon notes that take the form both fruit and fruity melon candy. To midway it brings up modest levels of alcohol and slightly sour (like fake sour) beer notes and then sour green apple cider. Interesting. All of these types can really use proper malt liquor alcohol and chemical burn for further balance.

16oz can, courtesy of the greatest Secret Santa of all time, has no discernable appearance as it's still it the tall towering can. The modest aroma offers berry and melon fruitiness and little else. The taste delivers loads of melon and fruity berry fruitiness flowing into more fruitiness. This could use a bigger alcohol burn to balance out the sweetness, but it doesn't. So there's that.

A double malt liquor day, I hope this one rescues me from the first. A pint can sleeved in a koozie, flip the top and have a sniff. A legitimate margarita smell, I’ll give Pirate Water kudos for that. I lift the can for a taste. Not bad, actually pretty fine for the style. I get lime, margarita mix, some salt and tequila. I’m kidding on the last one but there is a sense of booziness. Years ago Steel Reserve had a margarita malt liquor that was perhaps the best flavored ml I had ever had to that point. That was then, this is now. This one compares favorably.

23.5oz can, courtesy of the greatest Secret Santa of all time, has no discernable appearance as it's still in the tall towering can. The modest aroma offers grape, melon, tart fruit notes and a sense of berry. The taste delivers smooth sweet dark grapes and then picking up sweet melon notes followed by berry fruitiness that slowly grows more and more tart. Overall this is inoffensive other than a little oversweet. It could use some chemical booze burn to help pull this in better style alignment as well as create some balance to the sweetness.

Monstrous can picked up at Safeway. On opening you're greeted with a blast of sweet malts. Clear golden pour, fizzy white head. Aroma Is frat house floor after a kegger. Taste is sweet, ultra sweet, too sweet, corn, candy and medicinal. Yes, it that's good. Almost tastes like someone poured a 7-up in my cheap lager. I will struggle through and I will prevail.

Tall boy can given to me from my wife's friend. Pours cloudy white with a small ring, no lacing. Sweet aroma of grapes and cherry cough syrup. Alcohols, grainy, cherry syrup. I can't finish the glass, let alone the huge can. It's not terrible, just not for me. Too sweet.

I spotted a 24oz can at a convenience store in Cedar Park some months ago. This pleasant late spring day I’m slipping the can into a paper bag before opening it. A smell indicates essentially beer but I’ve been misled before. I take a full drink. Not calling this bad but it is a really long ways from the best I have had. Some corn but not enough, cardboard, aluminum and cereal. A little bit sweet, no discernible bitterness. As I drink more, the taste improves slightly. Maybe the alcohol is kicking in.
