Pint can from Wagner Market, 2/21/22. Just today I drove by Wagner and said, no, don’t stop, you’ll spend too much money if you go in! Hazy yellow, large frothy white head (6 fingers). Fair retention. Weak aroma of tropical fruit and pale malt. Taste is leafy, green hops, lemon, citrus, tropical fruit. Low bitterness, juicy. Tasty.

Kind of disappointed here. The aromas are rotten fruit with a little bit of floral and wet grain. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, more sweet than bitter, kind of fruity, diacetyl. I prefer a cleaner crisper pale lager.

The label also says that it's made with a house kolsch yeast at a lower temperature for a crisper beer. And I can see what they're doing but it doesn't really make the beer that much better if at all. Net result is a slightly crisper hoppy pale ale.

Pint can from Wagner Market, 1/16/22. Dark brown, near black, ruby highlights. Large dense brown head, good retention. Roast, piney hops. Taste is green hops, roast, mineral notes. Well balanced. Nice. Slayer does not owe me any $, but I’d love it if they’d buy me a beer.

Pint can from Ridgeview Liquor, 12/31/21. Murky orange, large fozzy brown head, poor retention. Slimy chunks were pouring out. Neat. Aroma of mango, pineapple, papaya. Taste is tart tropical fruit, pineapple, tangerine. Thin, high carb. This is not a success.

Enjoyed from can at X-Ray Arcade in Cudahy, WI. This is unique but not in the best way. Very carbonated, light malty profile, huge billowy head, not a big fan of the style though so I may be biased. Just meh.
