Not exactly what I had in mind

Obviously, like most people in the professional brewing industry, the geniuses at Miller Brewing read my post the other day about fruit-flavored lambics - otherwise they wouldn't be going ahead with this brilliant idea. But whereas I was surmising that the age old art of wild-fermenting wheat beers and dosing them with local varieties of cherry and rasberry to balance the tart acidity, this seems just... gross?

"Brutal Fruit" apparently comes in "Sultry Strawberry, Kinky Kiwi, Manic Mango and Luscious Litchi" flavors. Ensuring that teens across America, if they're not puking up wine coolers or alcopops, will have yet another option for mid-week hangover hell.

Gross.

Well, it can't be as bad as the mint malt liquor an old roommate of mine told me had once (long ago) been test marketed in his home town. His tasting notes? "It tasted like the beer had been infused with menthol cigarettes."
