Prickly Pear Cactus Pineapple Fruitsicle

This is dry, slightly fruity, but light, a bit sour, and WHAT?! this is low enough in alcohol that it's probably legal in Utah! Needless to say, I'm disappointed at paying a premium price for girly beer. Glad I prefaced this with two shots of vodka! I've seen there are about as many varieties of this "Fruitsicle" as this brewer puts out of my beloved "Dank Juice", but I'll always prefer the latter. My wife thinks wine drinkers would like this, and I agree, as long as they're happy with 10 points off their usual ABV. The main driver in my purchase was the claim of pineapple. I love pineapple IPAs, and given how much I dig their IPAs, I thought this might be a pineapple Bonanza, but no. I'll patiently wait (or maybe advocate for) "Pineapple Dank Juice". That could be amazing if done right! I give this ID-.
