This beer was first released as 'Summer IPA,' and for good reason - it carries as much summer as Endless Summer played on loop ad nauseum.† But this isn't a beer to limit to one season, so the Reckless team added it to their year-round roster so it can bring summer to you whenever you drink it.
It smells like someone has opened a packet of Starburst Chews, unwrapped every individual lolly, and then thrown them all at your head. If you like the idea of drinking overripe stone fruit, juicy blueberries, tangy passionfruit and somehow being left with a mouth full of melon breath††, then you’ve found your new best friend.

†And I should know – there was a bar in Brisbane that I used to frequent with my friends circa 2010-2012, and I swear they played this film on loop on their projector screen for two years straight.
††Is it just me, or does "Melon Breath" sound like an insult that animals would pull out in a kids’ movie like The Lion King or Madagascar?
