A wave of tropical fruit and spice brighten this lively, tart wheat ale, taking the German Berliner Weisse tradition on an island run. Hopfentea, steeped on a house-made tea blend of mango, papaya, hibiscus & lemongrass, pairs well with light appetizers, salads and high humidity.

On tap @ Perennial during RBSG. Pours a peachy pink appearance with a tan head. Some tropical fruity notes in the nose with some hibiscus, lavender, and grapefruit. Slightly tart and funky flavor. Kind of juicy and herbal and red fruity flavor. Interesting.
