I think that watermelon beers have been hit or miss in the past, as most fruit beers tend to be. This is a seasonal beer, specifically for the beer season of summer, which apparently runs from April to September. If only the actual summer was as long...
Hell or High Watermelon is another canned beer, so, much like its brother Brew Free! or Die, I don't have a whole lot of information for you about its appearance. I would be willing to bet that it's a very pale colored beer based on it being a wheat beer. The aroma is grains and watermelon, so the watermelon flavor should be pretty noticeable.
Well, it definitely is. Not upfront, but this beer finishes with a very strong watermelon flavor. This tastes like a normal summery beer with a nice watermelon surprise. It's sweet without being overdone, and it doesn't taste fake like some fruit beers do. There's a pretty high carbonation here, but it seems to work well with the watermelon.
Final thought - This beer is a good summer beer. It's light and crisp, and it's not too strong. Price might be an issue though, as I think it was a bit steep. Give it a try sometime, and invite me over for it.
