1.3 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20
Where do i start? It’s a red foamy mess that looks like soft drink. Smells like a alcopop shocker, fake strawberry flavour. Taste is fake berry flavour with a note of cough syrup. Look, it’s 5.9% abv and has guarana so the kids can get smashed on it and stay up all night, but really, it’s just awful.

1.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 2/20
330 ml can. A reddish amber body with a big, creamy off-white head. Have to admit it looks quite fantastic. Strong aroma of artificial fruit and berries with soda pop. No beer in the aroma, but I wasn’t expecting that either so it’s a bit difficult to put a score on this. To be a nonsense funnybunny wannabe fruity something beer the aroma is not unpleasant. The flavor on the other hand is awful, just synthetic fruit and soda pop. Like Coke mixed with a fruit drink. Weak body and the aftertaste is just as disgusting than the flavor itself. No beverage for humans.
