10 / 10

BOOM SHAKALAKA! HE’S ON FIRE! YES! RAZZLE DAZZLE! IT”S GOOD! IS IT THE SHOES?! Ok, so the whole shoes thing didn’t really make sense but if the announcer from NBA Jam was able to scream any of the other quotes above every time I took a sip of this I’m pretty sure my life would be damn near perfect. Being that I used to be in a touring band I can really relate to this beer’s name because we were notorious for doing overnight drives and there was nothing better than driving on a dark highway with only the glow of the moon to make sure you didn’t kill a family of deer or even worse, a hitchhiker. Actually come to think of it we may have killed a few of them and by them I mean none of your business… moving on. This beer is perfection in a 16oz can starting with a super soft mango flavor with just the right amount of sweetness before some light pine and orange flavors mix in bringing a slight but noticeable bitterness before closing up with some tropical flavors with hints of resin to really take this over the top. I would have never guessed that this beer was 8.4% ABV due to how smooth and light it it just like I would have never guessed that Sinead O’Connor would start off as this cute bald chick and eventually transform into a tattooed butch looking nutcase. Please go back to the “Nothing Compares 2U” version of Sinead, please! Anyways, if you know shit about shit you should probably get your ass on the first flight to Goleta, California to pick this up because this is everything and more of what you should be looking for in the style. This is absolutely perfect for first timers due to the fact that it’s like drinking a delicious flavorful cloud broth. As for you bastard drinking crew members, it should be pretty fucking by now clear after suffering through NBA Jam and Sinead O’Connor references you should be picking this up as of yesterday so get your asses moving!
