[16oz can from Beer52.] A chestnut coloured pour with a tight cream head; biscuity malt aroma; smooth malty taste, with caramel, nuts and a touch of chocolate to finish. A chewy, full bodied, brown ale.

Can date of 6-17-19. “These raspberries taste like raspberries”. Tart and mildly Jammy raspberry with a slight pucker after the sip. Mouth feel is indeed creamy.

Can from AFH. A little cloudy with fruit purée. Smell a little like poopey an a lot of sugary raspberry. Tasty jammy sweetness and tart over-arch. Dry finish. Would be great in a hot summer day.

Can dated 6-12-19. The flavor and aroma are directly flexion of each other. Pineapple, peach up front with a slight pine note in the finish. Mild bitterness with light juice character. Pretty good.

[16oz can from Beer52.] A slightly hazy amber pour with a loose creamy head; fruity tangerine aroma that drifts around the room; woody in the mouth to start then a bitter orange taste emerges with a sweet malty body - like a good vintage marmalade, then a gentle warmth and some piney touches to the finish. This is the sort of IPA I like - forget about the milkshake and the tropical fruit.

(Thanks, Chris AirForceHops) Can. A- Fruit cocktail, cherry, peach, cranberry. A- Golden orange color, clear liquid, minimal head. T- Fruit cocktail, stone fruits. P- Light body, average texture, average carbonation, fruity finish. O- Like fruit cocktail from a can. Really enjoyed this combo of fruit and just slightly tart. Lactose is mild and would like to try more beers with a combo of fruit like this.

Bottle shared in NH - picked up in ME. Pours unclear red with a small, foamy, off-white head. Nicely acidic, with lots of tart berries, a little salt. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Clean tart finish, quenching, aged berries, nice lactic bite. Solid.

Can from a lazy dog Brilliantly clear deep golden color with a small bubbly white head that dissipates quickly. Earthy fruity dare I say jam like with bits of bready malt and bits of tart. Not as tart as a lot of kettle sours but certainly lots of fruit. Pretty tasty.

Can. Flavor and aroma are a carbon copy of each other. Tastes like a fruit salad medley. Lightly tart and lightly sweet without the lactose being noticed (thank god!!) Better than I was guessing for a trendy sour ale.
