829 Flying Monkeys Fireworks and Karate Margarita IPA Canada IPA 3.0

Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

473ml can <br> 4.5% ABV <br> Canned On: May 17, 2021 <br> LCBO Outlet #649 (Milton, Ontario, Canada - Sobey's Plaza)<br> June 23, 2021<br> $3.55<br> The beer pours a hazy straw gold with a long lasting white cap. The aroma is grainy malt, some light caramel notes, light pine, citrus, and tropical fruits. The mouthfeel was medium bodied with average carbonation. The first flavour that hits the tongue is tart fruit, as it sits on the tongue, some sweetness slowly evolves. Not something I would drink regularly, fortunately it’s Flying Monkeys so it is probably a one-off.
