On tap @NewOrigin. Half pour apparently wasn't enough. Very cloudy/milky, grapefruit on peach-looking puree. Yogurt-y, fermenting oj, guava scent. Sour, twangy, orange juice, bitter cherry & floral guava mix. Finish is lemony & almost dry. Drink cold. Juicy, starchy, low abv, very crushable. Great.

Half pour, on tap @NewOrigin. Oozing, buttery, dirty, not smooth at all strawberry milkshake-looking, science experiment volcano thing. Took a sip & it came right back up past the fill line. Boozy berries in whipped cream. That's what I smell. It isn't bad. Taste is oily/buttery like actual creme. All I really get is a strong, unripe, acidic, sour berry mix over melted whipped cream, which is fine. It actually tastes like a melted bowl of berries & cream that you smashed up with a spoon because you're two years old. Slick, slippery, stodgy, melted milkshake texture. Difficult to get use to the feel of it. Carbonation struggles to get through it. Okay.

Half pour @NewOrigin. Somewhat hazy, pee gold, lasting lace. Odd cooked orange, spices & boozy grain. Sharp, bitter zest, pepper, breakfast flakes, really sharp finish. Lingering cereal. Thin at first, but yeasty/starchy middle. Okay, just odd. It didn't come out the way you'd expect.

Half pour @NewOrigin. Nearly black, very slow drizzle pour from the tap. Pale oatmeal head. Smells of mellow smoke & a little leftover grill fat. Nothing heavy. Very toasty, but not burnt. Cola, charred toast, mineral water, paper. Thin, airy, fizzy-light carbonation, slender abv. I could have two before I got hungry. That's the problem with savory beers. Good.

Stemless wine/beer glass thingie @New Origin. Purty, lingering bright white head over a dark, clear, iced tea body. Toasty, no char, lightly sweet, inviting nose. Frothy, fresh sweet breakfast slices of bread, bitter & tea-like. Consistent, but not abrasive carbonation, thin, slight enjoyable acidity. Came for the slushies, stayed for the beer. Excellent.

Pint @ New Origin. Clay-ed, pale orange more than yellow, slurry, still brew. Faintly danky, pith scent. Low volume. Taste is bitter aspirin, white pith, lime, some subtle sugar. Frothy, foamy, textured, noticable abv. Pretty good.

12/10 - Re-rate: Released again at some point, or old stock? 3-8 to 3.9. 4-pack of tall boys from the source. Packaged on 5/2/22. Pint glass @home. It glugs out the can. Looks like a slushy, melted mess. Like mixing pulpy orange juice & cream. Smell is Thai-like: coconut, sweet mango, spice. Taste is mango nectar, lemon, with half a banana blended in, a little cinnamon sprinkled on top. Tarter than sweet. Sharp, super fresh, seemingly un-fermented fruit. I like the flavor, but not what I was looking for. Pulpy, acidic, unnoticeable alcohol, definitely a slurry. More juice than beer. This is a beer?

On tap @the source. Mango puree in a house glass. Storng peach & mango nose. Honestly not much else. Lemon sour, chunky smoothie. Super intense peach puree, vanilla on the trail. Vanilla thankfully isn't too strong. Tart, smooth & too easy if you like acid. No vinegar. Bittersweet & blurry abv. Maybe too acidic, low carbonation, cheap per pour, super citric. Very much a slurry. Even a beer? Liked?

12oz, slimline NO glass @the source. Quiet today, travelers must be gravitating to the white reggae at Keme down the block. Looks like thick grapefruit juice. Pretty pink, deceptively healthy pour. Smell is a soft creamsicle, but grapefruit instead of orange. Nothing more or less. Taste is grapefruit juice, pure & true, with a backwash of very mild vanilla. All the other descriptors mean nothing. Fruity, bittersweet juice. It is exactly what I would expect drinking straight from a Tropicana container. Mild carbonation, slurryish like a somewhat filtered juice container. There's alcohol? All good.
