Rating: 4.25/5
Notes: Nice. It’s very easy to drink and the right amount of tartness to it. The lemon, coconut and vanilla are great together and balance out pretty well. Great spring or summer beer.
Can art: GN’s labels are always sick. Props to @timberps for killing it. This is one of the best labels in my opinion. I bought the T-shirt.
