Odd Side Ales Grand Haven, Michigan

12 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 5/16/2018. Pours moderately hazy medium golden yellow color with 2 finger fairly dense and rocky white head with awesome retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice dense soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of big juicy/lightly tart/tangy pineapple, tangerine, citrus zest, lemon, peach, pear, red/green apple, melon, white grape, hay, grass, vanilla, cream, wheat, cracker, biscuit, light lacto/Brett funk, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/light acidic yeast, fruit, lactose, and pale/wheat malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big juicy/lightly tart/tangy pineapple, tangerine, citrus zest, lemon, peach, pear, red/green apple, melon, white grape, hay, grass, vanilla, cream, wheat, cracker, biscuit, light lacto/Brett funk, and yeast earthiness. Very mild fruity/lactic tartness and fruit tang on the finish. Lingering notes of juicy/lightly tart/tangy pineapple, tangerine, citrus zest, lemon, peach, pear, red/green apple, melon, white grape, hay, grass, vanilla, cream, wheat, cracker, biscuit, light lacto/Brett funk, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/light acidic yeast, fruit, lactose, and pale/wheat malt flavors; with an awesome malt/tartness and tangy fruit balance; and zero cloying/puckering flavors after the finish. Slightly increasing dryness from lingering tartness/tangy fruit. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/grainy, and lightly acidic/tangy mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.5%. Overall this is an excellent fruited milkshake sour! All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/light acidic yeast, fruit, lactose, and pale/wheat malt flavors; very smooth and refreshing to drink with the very mildly acidic/tangy finish. Very flavorful for the low ABV. Nicely juicy fruits, balanced milkshake-like sweetness; and solid Brett/lacto complexity. A very enjoyable offering. Just as impressive as the rest of the variants so far, great summer session sours.

Coors Brewing Company (MillerCoors) Golden, Colorado

B. Pours a clear golden color with white head. Full of flavor and also drinkable

Dogfish Head Brewery Milton, Delaware

12 oz. bottle. Pours a medium, well retained, off white head, with slight lacing, over a clear amber (SRM 14) body.....nose is multiple fruit tones, with berry, passion fruit, pear, apple tones, mild toasted malts, grass, slight dank tones, and herbal hop notes......taste is various fruits, with berry, passion fruit, relatively dry throughout, moderate toasted malt with mild bread, cracker, finishing with mild herbal hop bitterness....mouth feel, medium light body, slight alcohol, high carbonation. The base not American Pale Ale nicely meets its style in terms of both malts and hops. The multiple fruits are not super dominant but add nice complexity to both aroma and flavors. The lack of sweetness is the only surprise for the Fruit Beer style. However overall, the beer is smooth and easy drinking. BJCP 7/3/12/4/7

Magic Hat Brewing Company (Cervecería Costa Rica - FIFCO) South Burlington, Vermont

12 oz bottle. Pours a cloudy orange gold. Small head gone instantly and no lacing. Smells sour and fruity. Distinctive taste of barnyard and malt. Very mild carbonation and a remarkably short metalic finish. Not a Hefeweizen in my book but drinkable.

Imagine Nation Brewing Company Missoula, Montana

On tap at the brewery. Pours a hazy orange with a thick white head. Aroma of pale malt, light fruits, apricot, bready malt. Flavor of bready malt, toasted malt, light fruits, apricot. Nice amber ale, malty and fruity. 7/4/7/4/13 (3.5/5)

Taste of lemon, some mango, slight melon, a little pale malts and subtle floral hops. Light bodied and soft carbonation. A soft, dryish, fruity hop bitterness in the finish.

Hamburg Brewing Company Hamburg, New York

Bottle. Moderate roasted and cereal for the malt, light herbs and dough for the hops and the yeast, with a hint of sulfur and vegetables in the background. Head is small, frothy, off-white, with fair lacing and is mostly diminishing. Color is reddish tan. Flavor starts lightly acidic, then finishes lightly bitter. Palate is light to medium, watery with a lively carbonation. Easy drinking Irish Ale, but most are.
