Saw this in four packs (encased in a cardboard container like an energy drink) a few times before, and figured it was not good, but then I saw it at Mac’s Midtown in Atlanta as part of their “mix-a-sixer” so guessed it was worth 1/6 of $7.99!
Poured into the Tucher Weizen glass this has a decent head for a few seconds but then it fades badly. Lace is scant. Body has a classic, hazed lemon look, so that was OK.
Strange, peppery-citrus nose followed by a weak, watery body that lacks banana or clove notes. Spice is not really there either, just white pepper. Odd, marmalade citrus note to the taste as well. Definite orange peel detected.
I dunno, not a very good beer, but a potential option as an introduction to something other than BMC. As such, it might open a door for a few poeple and the can angle is, as usual, interesting.
However, this is not a very high quality beer, and it is CLEARLY relying heavily on marketing (logo, name, general pitch etc.), so don’t expect much at all.
