I drank one of these yesterday and whoa.
WTF!?!
The first sip was overpoweringly fruity sweet, yet by the third sip it was yummy. Not much of a head, neon bright pink-red. Yeah, fruity tooty.
Maybe first have a different ale to wet your whistle? 5/10 with caveats. Tasty, but not for folks who swear by India Pale Ales.

Supreme Court Picks Up Where the Jan. 6 Mob Left Off
They took a case they should not have accepted, agreeing to hear arguments that were already rejected in an expertly argued appeals court decision. Just as damagingly, they did so in a way that—regardless of their final ruling—would mean American voters would likely not hear a verdict prior to November’s election.
U.S. Begins Airdrops of Humanitarian Aid in Gaza
The United States made its first airdrops of humanitarian aid into Gaza on Saturday, as the Biden administration tried to prevent a greater humanitarian disaster in the Palestinian territory.
Three U.S. Air Force cargo planes airdropped 38,000 ready-to-eat meals, in a joint operation with the Jordanian Air Force.
Not exactly on scale with the Berlin Airlift. Odd factoid: by weight, two-thirds of the Berlin Airlift was coal.
Trump Allies Plot Crackdown on Abortion
Allies of former President Trump are looking to crack down on abortion should the GOP frontrunner secure another White House term later this year.
Though the plans come from the Heritage Foundation — not the Trump campaign — the think tank is highly influential in Republican circles, and its Project 2025 is the most sophisticated pre-transition planning effort to date.
Garvey now in statistical tie with Schiff in California Senate race: Poll
Yeah, it kinda sucks for Katie Porter and Barbara Lee, but I have a hard time believing Steve Garvey is going to be California’s next junior Senator.
Germany Confirms Leaked Audio Of Its Top Generals Discussing Blowing Up The Crimean Bridge
Well, duh. I’m surprised this is taking so long. The bridge has already been hit. Taking it completely out of commission, particularly the rail link, has got to be a top priority for Ukraine and its allies. If can be seen to have collapsed into the Kerch Strait, Ukraine will have dealt a massive blow to Putin’s plans.
Trump’s Allies Ramp Up Campaign Targeting Voter Rolls
A network of right-wing activists and allies of Donald Trump is quietly challenging thousands of voter registrations in critical presidential battleground states, an all-but-unnoticed effort that could have an impact in a close or contentious election.
Calling themselves election investigators, the activists have pressed local officials in Michigan, Nevada and Georgia to drop voters from the rolls en masse. They have at times targeted Democratic areas, relying on new data programs and novel legal theories to justify their push.
Bill Makes Teachers Sex Offenders for Trans Kids’ Pronouns
A new bill introduced in the Missouri House would force teachers to register as sex offenders if they use the names and pronouns of transgender children or otherwise support them and their identity.
