It's a commercial example... I'm running out of beers
But I guess the picture didn't show so well, especially on some people's monitors, that the beer is pretty pink. It seems to me like adding a bit of cranberry juice to milk or something.

Strawberry wheat or blonde
Tad late :cross:
BTW, that "specific second ingredient" I mentioned is honey, as in Honey Hibiscus Wit. This beer was more specifically a Hibiscus Wit, but the answer was close enough and not exactly incorrect.
Also, the "Jamaica" thing was in reference to it being known as Jamaica flower, as well as being the defining ingredient in "Jamaica Juice".

Hint: There's no gray area in this beer, it was pretty black and white.

No one is right.
New hint. I bottled 50 of these. Only 2% didn't drink the whole thing.

I don't understand... are you talking about abv? Is it dry irish stout?
That's where I was going! Especially based on that last hint.
*sigh*
Early clues should be clues to get our beer-knowledge-gears turning.
Later clues, after it's apparent people have no idea, can be puns.
Example of what not to do:
Friends don't let friends post crappy clues.

Yep. Black and white = cows = milk stout.

Juuuu talkin to me? Come on, it's a milk stout. Hint - It's got lactose and roasted barley. Eventually these are going to get kind of repetitive if you don't change up the clues.
Well it's really not hard to give them a little twist:
"One of the ingredients creates a brown head."
"This style is an off-shoot of a style developed in the UK"
"One of the ingredients is unfermentable"
You should be using your brewing knowledge to test ours.

The fact its a dark beer means that regardless of the clues everyone will take turns guessing dark styles and there's really only what, 10-12 of them? Unless its a coconut-lychee-guava stout, which is what ill post next

I had a coconut rum-barrel tropical stout for one of my things, but I neither hinted at nor required any of that except "tropical stout".

Fiiiiine.
Okay, so since I've exhausted all of my pint photos and I'm not cracking one of my last barleywines to take a photo (but I will the next time I crack one open) here's a little fun to switch it up.
Before gelatin
After gelatin
The hint involves the photos. You'd expect this brew to be hazy at first and should give it time to clear up... but I was having none of that business and used gelatin
