I always end up disappointed by watermelon beers. They end up tasting like fake sugar and nothing like a crisp fresh watermelon in summer. The combination with sea salt helps hide that candy at first but after the beer settles it comes back through. The sweet toothed, chubby 10 year old kid would loves this. The savoury toothed, chubby 38 year old me does not.
