Bottle. Hazy deep hay yellow liquid with minimal white head. Aroma of passion fruit, grain, lemon and bread. Taste is light sweet and light sour with notes of lemon, passion fruit and grain. Medium bodied with medium carbonation. Super grainy. Meh.

Daffodil and rubber nose, pungent. Cloudy golden, thin head. Daffodil, bread crust, yeast, lemon, raspberry. Vaguely blueberry finish. Medium body, easy carbonation. Very interesting, but I’m not a fan of passionfruit. I think it might be better without the fruit addition.

Bottle, Wine Warehouse. Pours hazy golden with a small head. Smells like passion fruit, perhaps a sweet pop smell. Taste is a bitter lemon-passion fruit sour shandy-like flavor. Interesting, but I’m not in love.

Bottle from Bine & Vine. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Aroma of fruit with an interesting brett undernote. Med body or so. Flavor is slight tart fruit, and there’s a possible brett note. The fruit is strong enough to confuse that. With time there’s some citrus, and maybe a little wood astringency. Probably a lot going on, but the fruit tends to keep things under cover. Tastes good and refreshing tho.

At the brewery. Hazy orange color with white head. Aroma is funky, passion fruit and tart. Taste is passion fruit, great tartness, hardly any bitterness, but nice fruity-tart finish. Amazing, finally a beer that manages to bring the tart Passion Fruit feeling into a beer! I love it!
