12 oz. can. Pours a cloudy pale yellow color with a tiny white head and fair retention. No lacing. Grapefruit and wheat ale aroma. Has a weak citrus flavor with a chalky wheat ale finish. Crisp, somewhat watery mouthfeel. Drinks like a soda/seltzer.

12 oz. can. Pours a dirty light gold color with a fizzy white head and decent retention. Minimal lacing. Grainy aroma. As advertised, flavor of light bitter grapefruit and seltzer. Very crisp and soda-like. No real beer flavor. It's okay.

12 oz. can. Pours a murky apple sauce color with a white head and decent retention. Spots of lacing. Light cranberry aroma. As expected, has a mild cranberry flavor on a light beer base. Short, semi-tart finish. Tastes more like a cider than a beer. Simple and refreshing on a hot day.

Relatively clear golden and lightly orange coloured body with a thinnish, very fast-dying pure white head that shows a lot of bubbles and not much else. Aroma of light citrus, a dose of malt, some yeast and bread and a hint of orange slice candy, but that's about it - this is fairly straight forward. Super light-bodied; Strong citrus flavours at first with a lot of carbonation and some soft malts noticeable with a light, almost artificial sweetness from the sugars with not much else, especially in terms of complexity. Aftertaste shows the citrus, grain and a dose of bread with almost no other flavours, and nothing of substance throughout this one - very easy-drinking and incredibly mild. Overall, a decent [enough] beer that shows more of a 'sparkling hard seltzer' than a beer, but light, refreshing and about what you'd want this to be. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Whole Foods in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia on 30-May-2019 for US$2,49 sampled at home in Washington on 29-June-2019, a bit less than a month later.

Completely crisp light amber and copper coloured body with a thinnish, fast-dying pure white head that fades faster than a soda. Aroma of bright ginger (of course), malts, a dose of yeast, bread and grain and finishing with some mild caster sugar sweetness. Light to Medium-bodied; Dry and herbal flavour from the ginger up front with a heavy dose of light grain and malt with a bready and yeastie finish that shows a lot of sweetness, but a very easy-drinking beer throughout. Aftertaste shows a clean beer with some light ginger, a touch of sweetness, a good deal of dry and very biscuity malt and yeast notes with very little else - a clean and simple beer that almost tastes like a cider, but the biscuits and grain comes through near the end. Overall, a good and dry beer that is full of ginger flavour and only a touch of malt and grain that makes this very easy-drinking, especially in the warm summertime, or anytime here in Florida! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Crystal City Wine Shop in Arlington, Virginia on 29-March-2019 for US$1,69 sampled in my hotel room here in Clearwater Beach, Florida on 13-April-2019.
