At least I spilled it after drinking a few beers.

Justin:

Aroma - Straight from the start, this one comes off tart when you get your first whiff. After that, you get the sweet fruits that it was made with, grapefruit and mandarin orange. There is some malt presence too and that comes across as white bread and cracker.
Score: 10/12
Appearance - This beer pours a cloudy pale gold with a sparkling white head that immediately leaves.
Score: 2/3
Flavor - Once again, the tartness is big and one of the first tings to be noticed. The fun part about the fruits in is that the grapefruit hits the back of my tongue while the mandarin orange is on the front. The malts are a bit overshadowed in flavor by the tartness and fruit but they are mostly white bread in flavor.
Score: 16/20
Mouthfeel - The carbonation is high and the body is medium for a nice tingling feeling on the tongue.
Score: 4/5
Overall Impression - This one was quite good and is phenomenal during the summer. Its light, it's bright and it's sweet without being too sweet. I will say that the flavors could be just a bit bigger. Don't get me wrong, they all worked well and they were all perceptible. If they cranked those flavors up a notch or two, it'd get another point or two. Regardless, it's great as is and it's a definite must try.
Score: 8/10
