Can to tulip.
Appearance: ruddy violet to amber color with a thin cap of a little white foamy head which slid off to leave some light lace.
Aroma: some cherries, cranberries and slight citrusy tones - the tart and sour aspects, an ever so slight whiff of lactose
Flavor: the tart and sour character of the cherries, cranberries & citrusy accents play with some lactose creamy sweetness; slight aftertaste of cranberries, cherries and lactose
Texture: light to medium bodied, leaning towards being a sipper, lactose tries to smooth some of the tartness on the tongue but does it? Well, let's just say it's a decent effort. Finishes tart/sour with the cherries & cranberries
Overall: seemed like this was one of the precursors to pastry sours, and I don't mind this one, I believe I could come back to.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: thick burnt orange haziness; two and a half fingers of white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: citrusy, juicy pineapple, melon and subtle pine hoppy scents, some lactose/creaminess
Flavor: bittersweet juicy blend of those hops and the creamy/lactose-y character; light aftertaste of those hops
Texture: medium bodied, between sessionable and being a sipper, fairly smooth along the tongue; finishes smooth and bittersweet juicy
Overall: another milkshake IPA that isn't totally bad, maybe there is hope for me after all about possibly warming up to milkshake IPA's

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: thick cardboard yellow to semi-orange color with a two finger white foamy head which slid off to leave some mild lace
Aroma: big citrusy juicy hops with peachy to piney hop accents as well, light lactose
Flavor: bittersweet juicy blending hops were blending with the lactose a little bit better than other beers of this style; mild aftertaste of citrusy and piney hoppiness.
Texture: medium bodied, good as a sipper, creamy smooth along tongue; finishes fairly blended between the hops and the lactose
Overall: one of the better milkshake IPA's on the market.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: milky yellow haziness with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: citrusy to piney hoppy tones, tons of lactose/creaminess
Flavor: bittersweet through the prior mentioned hops then a pure sweet creamy/lactose character trying to mesh but seems to fall a bit short, hoppy aftertaste
Texture: medium bodied, somewhat a sipper, creamy smooth along the tongue, finishes lactose/creamy and a touch of disjointed bitterness
Overall: I tried it and I seem to becoming not a fan of milkshake IPA's as I see myself coming back to this.

Can with smudged/illegible date, drunk 1/13/26, as pictured.
Definitely get the orange zest but there's a surprising lack of hops behind it. A lot of biscuity grain, orange zest and cracker with no lush/juicy hop character I expect from, you know, a beer called Juice Bomb.
A bit sharp/alcoholic and oxidized with lots of malt, even tending lightly caramelly. Can forgive a lot, but not the sharp/raw alcohol flavor. No juice, no softness. Just harsh booze and bitterness from the orange rind. An absolute disaster.

From Beer Drop, canned July 29th 2025.
It pours a mostly clear gold with over a finger of foam. Retention and lacing are fine.
The smell is bread and caramel malt, some mild bitter notes of grass, hint of nuttiness.
Taste is bread, caramel malt, some grassy and a bit spicy hop bitterness. Tasting very good.
Mouthfeel is just fine, I would drink this again. Very good Marzen style Oktoberfest.
