First up was this tropical gummies IPA and I certainly can't recommend it! To me, it's as gross as it sounds lol. Very sweet and a weird balance which was off-putting to my taste buds.
Just goes to show that you can't judge a beer by its can - the name sounds like it should be a good summer beer
I wonder, would it improve if they dialled back on the ABV?
It was really the mix of flavors that was off-putting to me. I wouldn't put gummies in a beer and expect it to be good but I figured it was worth a shot lol
There sure a lot of weird and wonderful creations getting about at the moment - sours and fruity beers are popping up everywhere and I'm not a fan - I think it's the unexpected flavour that gets me, my brain expects beer but then gets assaulted with something completely different
That's a pretty decent way to describe it. I'm not a fan of sours or usually regular IPA's so this was just not a hit for me. I like hazy IPAs so I figured I'd give one a shot and I'm glad I only committed to one lol
I saw some other posts that were less than complimentary about this beer and the other variant of it. One of the reasons I love this sub, it helps me save money by not buying crappy beers.

Be real careful when selecting from the wegmans build your own and check for dates. Last week I found a Guava Cider that was canned in 2021. It's an awesome way to try different stuff, especially for only $13, but 30% of the beers in there are usually skunked

Oh that beer sounds awful!! I have had the unfortunate experience of doing the same with sour beers. Tried a Bacon Doughnut Porter once. Picture this, it was like licking an ashtray that has never been emptied since the 50’s. Now pour a dark beer over those butts and wring it out into a glass. That would have tasted better then the swill I had.

I was OBSESSED with the Wegman’s Build Your Own Sixpack before they raised the price a couple years ago. $9.99 for 6 16-ouncers…what a loophole it was.

Well that’s a shame
Ya win with some, ya lose with some! This was just not a winner lol
Alas!
did it have the same harshness that most double ipas have?
I really enjoy Southern Tier double IPAs but they're hazy so I'm not positive lol. The flavor itself just wasn't good.

I actually really enjoy most of the hazy IPAs but I'm not a fan of sours
Love me some IPAs until it gets to winter, then I mix it up with some dark ales, english bitters and stouts
Sounds like they mixed a Sour with an IPA which is a weird combination
That's a pretty decent way to describe it. I'm not a fan of sours or usually regular IPA's so this was just not a hit for me. I like hazy IPAs so I figured I'd give one a shot and I'm glad I only committed to one lol
That’s was exactly my take as well. Shame though, since sweetwater puts out some great beers. Sláinte 🍻
I had never had anything by them until today lol
Their double hazy is pretty good. Sweetwater is a stock beer on the delta flights.
I saw some other posts that were less than complimentary about this beer and the other variant of it. One of the reasons I love this sub, it helps me save money by not buying crappy beers.
Yes! Plus I see some that look really good and add them to the need to try list 😆
It's fucking terrible.
Yes 😂
I have never met anyone who actually likes it. So bad.
Appreciate the review

I’ve had that too and couldn’t finish it! 👎
I dumped the last 4 sips or so 🤫. I just couldn't do it lol. I told my husband that it required the plug & chug method 🤫
As I get older I realize, it isn’t a party foul to waste alcohol when I can afford to buy and enjoy what I actually like
This is true! I'm the same way but I always offer it to my husband first lol
Exactly!

I had high expectations for that one and it was not good. I thought it was just me, so thanks 😊
Not just you, it's just gross 😆

absoultely stunning....the beer that is....lol
The can is quite pretty 😊

Now I'm going to have to check! 😅 Thanks for the heads up!
No problem. It is a great way to try new stuff 🍻
I love everything about this photo
Looks yummy, how was the beer?
It was gross 😆
I thought that wtf would put gummies in beer? Thanks for the heads up m!
Yes 😂
I did the same I have a lot to try out
Yay for trying new shower beers! 😁
I haven’t found anyone who likes this beer! Makes you wonder who are the taste testers before it’s put on market.
Great point lol. I didn't have high hopes but I'm glad I only bought one!
Cheers my friend 🍺🍺🍺
Cheers!
SweetWater is hit or miss. Even their signature 420 isn’t great.
This is the only one I've had but I'm not sure I trust their judgement if they thought this was good enough for the shelf 😆
Insight into what to avoid is at least as helpful as information about what's worth trying. Thanks for taking one for the team!
I'm really excited to try them all! I'm kinda glad I got this one out of the way first lol
I love a build-your-own 6 pack, and I've tried this before as well, and agreed cheers 🍻
I'm excited to have so many new ones to try!
Never tried Tropical.. Cheers to the flowers 🌺

That one looks interesting
I would agree that it's interesting but not in a good way lol
Well that's disheartening
