Drinkable passion fruit beer. Stays true to the nature of the fruit being slightly tart. But it somehow also seems uninspired. It’s a passable fruit beer and that’s about it.

(Draught at Bishop’s Arms Flokungagatan, Stockholm, 20 July 2016) Pale golden colour with frothy, off-white head. Fruity, malty nose with passion-fruit, tropical fruit, citrus and biscuits. Malty, fruity taste with notes of citrus, passion-fruit, biscuity malt and a balanced citric bitterness. Medium body, dry. Fresh and tasty with a generous tropical fruit touch. Nice one.

Cloudy tangerine orange. Smells interesting. Tropical, juicy with a bit of asstringency. Hmmm. Very refreshing. Actually. Juicy, malty and good enough for sure. Like a non hopped pale ale with fruit

Bottle. Pale yellow color with a wispy layer of white head and spotty lacing. Nose is tropical fruit, sweet and a bit musty. Fruity taste, sweet overall with a crisp finish.

Best by July 19th stamped clearly on the bottom rim of the can.
Hazy straw yellow orange colour, big but short lived head of foam. No lacing.
Big fruity nose of passion fruit, wheat, yeast. I Cannot tell if this is going to be tart by smelling it.
Taste is wheat, biscuit, fruity, yes, but ever so slightly tart. Good and all but I was hoping for more. I reckon the smell was a portend of what was to come.
Good enough brew but not one that I have a desire to revisit.

On tap at Bishops Arms, Folkis. Clear light orange with a white head. On the sweet side with fruit, light yeast and some soap. The finish was slightly tart. Soft and easy to drink.

Tap Hollywood gardens. Looks like lemonade with a slight haze. Sweet lemon rind aroma. Taste is lemon rind as well. Not sour or tart, for some reason was expecting some tartness. Passion fruit is in there but its laid back and easy, well balanced on the passion fruit thing. Seems a bit watered down at times. Hides the alky well, enjoyable. Yes, pretty good but IMHO could use a little more tartness in there.
