Medium brown, thin head. Aroma has the same base fig, brown sugar and fruity rich malt, but with strawberry. Has more carbonation, so lighter body. Jammy strawberry, chewy malt base, again those more English bw flavours with vanilla and tannic dryness.

Medium brown, not much head. Aroma has a bit of sweetness. Figs, brown sugar, intense alcohol. Balanced, sticky, this is pretty good. Burly American strength, but a bit more refinement.

500 ml tall boy can. Yep. Hazy gold pour under a big foamy head that takes a while to dwindle down. Surprisingly big orange wedge smell, then a bit of malt. But there's plenty of hop to the taste. Strong beer and alcohol punch. A big fruity and hoppy punch.

16oz can. Concept is fairly reasonable. Hand this one off to one of the pastry sour places and they could do it right. Rev sort of half asses it, like they do everything else that isn't 2 dollars an ounce. Pretty much a sugary cider. Not so bad, certainly not so good.

Canned 12/30/25, drunk 3/26/26.
Definitely smell whatever this added "natural flavor" is right away. Candied grapefruit and sugar candies with caramelized sugar and somewhat artificial cherry. Does not inspire a lot of confidence or make me excited to take a sip, but at least there's no alcohol in the aroma. Oh, and no hops.
Tastes like a liquefied lollipop. What in the actual fuck, man?! Caramel, weird flavorings and almost no hops. No alcohol either, at least, but that's about the only positive thing I can say here. It's not even syrupy or cloying, it just has an intense candy-like flavor. Surprisingly lighter-bodied too. Super f-in weird (bad) stuff.
