On tap at Red Cow North Loop. Pours a hazy peachy gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a good amount of sweet citrus with a slight bite and a hint of light grain underlying. Flavor has sweet citrus with a slight bitterness and some light grains backing.

Nice tasty one :-)
Cloudy yellow golden color with a fine white head. Good intensity in the aroma. Medium (+) body and a fine carbonation level. Moderate sweet and a mild acidity. Tropical fruity and citric flavor. Very quaffable.
[Can from Vinmonopolet Aker Brygge in Oslo, Norway]

12 oz can poured into a tulip. Best before September 2017. Drank two cans before finally rating. NE-style cloudy yellow orange with close to two fingers of off-white head. Aromas of orange and tangerine citrus, light floral notes. Tastes of orange and lemon citrus, light floral notes, light tartness. Medium body with a dry finish. Nice.

Can. A- Passion fruit, mangosteen, rotten fruit. A- Gold color, hazy liquid, white head. T- Passion fruit, slightly bitter, slightly dry, soapy, overripe tropical fruit. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Ratebeer calls it a fruit beer, the can says it’s an IPA. It does a pretty decent job at point. Not a ton of bitterness, but also not entirely juicy and fruity. Also a best by date a year after it’s canned. What kind of weird beer is this? Anyways, I love mango and passion fruit and wanted this a lot. Didn’t meet expectations but managed to be okay.

Can from Gambrinus. Pours a hazy gold with a finger of foam that lingers. Big mango and passion fruit notes on the nose. As it warms, some light resiny hop aromas start to come out. Light and easy on the palate, kind of a pithy bitterness or part of the skins from the fruit possibly. Bitter finish. --- Beer merged from original tick of Stillwater Contemporary Works Nu-Tropic on 05 Nov 2016 at 19:18 - Score: 7. Original review text: Big mango and guava nose. Juicy mouthfeel, but a tad astringent. Still enjoyable.

Big offwhite head doesn’t last. Hazy opaque pale yellow body full of white floaties. Tropical fruit and grainy funky aroma with kind of stale notes. Odd. Dry-sweet resiny funky tropical fruit taste with bitter herbal notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, mealy mouthfeel. Dryish resiny harsh mango aftertaste with bitter orange and metal notes. It’s drinkable, but I’m not really enjoying this. Best before is April 2017, so the brewery claims it’s not too old. (0.355l can, from wine monopoly, Storo.)

Sampled on draft at 3R6P this beer poured a murky yellow color with a medium sized foamy white head that left no lacing. The aroma was windex, catbox, lemon and had an off presence i could not identify. The flavor was tart, tangy and lemony with an astringent windex presence - almost medicinal and definitely off. Unfortunately long finish. Medium body. Pretty awful.

Draft at Barcade NYC. Hazy yellow pour. Bright, tropical hop aroma. Mango, peach. Fruity flavor, nicely, but not heavily dry on the close. Good stuff.
