FINALLY got my hands on “A Visit From The Fruit Lady” sour series before they sold out. Worth the wait! 3 rules: Refrigerate all the time. Don’t store for more than 3 months. Don’t ship.

16 oz. can. Thanks, Ben! Pours a hazy, orange color, with a medium, fizzy, off-white head. Some disconcerting white chunks floating about. The aroma is lemon juice, pineapple, coconut water, sourdough, and allspice. Sweet and sugary, with a light, sour finish. Light to medium body, with an acidic, slick palate. This is a fun and interesting sour, but it was probably better fresher. Three months seems to have deadened the fresh fruits and made little yogurty bits which are unsettling.

16 oz. can. Pours a brilliant, purple color, with a fair, fizzy, white head. Tons of blueberries on the nose, with some vanilla, cinnamon, and lemon. Sweet and fruity, with a lovely, tart finish. Light to medium body, with an acidic, creamy palate. This is a delicious and fruity sour.

16 oz. can. Pours black, with a big, frothy, tan head. Obscene levels of maple. Cacao nibs, mild coffee, dates, and allspice. Cloyingly sweet, with a hint of bitterness. Heavy body, with a syrupy palate. This is a massive and decadent stout - I can't help but love it.

Can shared. Thanks Sam. Pours a clearish purple ruby color with a small head. Some blueberry with lots of vanilla and lactose in the nose. Slightly thin on the palate, mostly fake flavoring present. Sweet finish with lactose and vanilla with blueberry. Not my cup of tea.
