It’s not. I tried it in early May, and it was pretty good. Tasted kind of like a mix of beer and light wine.
It’s been available here in CT for a few months.
Huh, according to the website, it was originally released in 2006. I only recall seeing it this Spring in my local ‘decent beer’ package store.
