33cl can, canned 14/08/2017, at Niamey's monthly tasting, thanks Rich for hauling this one from Singapore to Africa even if its past its BB. Dorée sur léger trouble, fizzy head blanc. Arôme fruit de la passion dans un rappel un peu purée, le tout est dominant malgré l'age et est accompagné par de fines effluves de grains. Palais est léger, fruité tropical avec un fruit de la passion distinct - retrouve aussi un effet framboise? malté modéré d'orge sur léger pils. Retrouve un houblonné modeste qui tranche peu avec l'apport fruité.

Can. Pours cloudy bronze with no head. Aroma of peach, passion fruit. Taste follows nose with additional wheat, tart fruit, and some sort of weird chemical taste.

Can pour from Valley Beverage Company. Appearance is cloudy, greenish light brown-dark yellow with copious effervescence, fizzy ephemeral white head and no lacing. Aroma is tart passionfruit, a little musty. Taste is strong, tart passionfruit with late sweetness, underlying wheat. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with smooth, slick texture, lively carbonation (slightly stinging) and bittersweet balance of passionfruit in the finish. Overall, this was served cold, which is probably a good thing and how it is meant to be served. Thirst quenching and surprisingly the sweet and bitter of the passionfruit was balanced well.

330 ml can into pint glass, canned on 7/5/2017. Pours lightly hazy pale golden yellow color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass. Aromas of juicy/lightly tart/tangy passionfruit, peach, apricot, pineapple, berry, wheat, cracker, white bread, herbal, grass, and yeast earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance of passionfruit, pale malt, and light earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of juicy and lightly tart/tangy passionfruit, peach, apricot, pineapple, melon, berry, wheat, cracker, white bread, herbal, grass, and yeast earthiness. Light herbal/grassy bitterness and fruit tang/tartness on the finish. Lingering notes of tart/tangy passionfruit, peach, apricot, pineapple, melon, berry, wheat, cracker, white bread, herbal, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice robustness and balance of passionfruit, pale malt, and light earthy hop flavors; with a nice malt/bitter/tartness balance and zero cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Moderate increasing dryness from tart/tangy fruit. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth and moderately grainy/acidic/tangy balanced mouthfeel that if great. Zero warming alcoohl as expected of 4%. Overall this is a very good fruit wheat ale. All around nice robustness and balance of passionfruit, pale malt, and light earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink; with the mellowly tart/tangy/drying finish. Very well balanced between fruit and pale/wheat malts, with just enough hops for balance. Very flavorful and not watery feeling for the ABV. A very enjoyable offering.

Hazy pale, lots of passionfruit, quite fizzy, light bodied, nice fruit. Tame the fizz and it will be really drinkable.
