Nothing beats that sweet spot as winter gives way to summer, so we put that feeling in a beer! This German sour ale becomes a spring favorite with the addition of the bright flavors of passion fruit. Tartness from the the kettle-souring with Lactobacillus gives the beer the same crisp , dry, refreshing quality as a warm spring afternoon.

Super hazy, deep golden and straw coloured body with a nice, about right-sized two to three centimetre tall just off-white head that stays afloat nicely for a few minutes, pretty good for the style. Aroma of bright, fresh (not canned/juiced) passionfruit with a lot of tartness some citrus qualities, but a very nice and tropical, super soured fruit note with some light brine and salt near the end, but a subdued sweetness and fruit flavour that dominates in a great way - oh, and some wheats too. Light to barely Medium-bodied; Strong very fresh passionfruit and soured, tart tropical fruit notes with even some hibiscus here along with some light papaya and guava, but this really is about the tart and fresh passionfruit - my favourite fruit. Aftertaste is soft, wheatie, a light bit of bread breaking through with a good dose of salt and brine to break the tartness, but the passionfruit, once again, finishing this off nicely - a great beer to have for the style and especially for the season. Overall, a great beer to have in the heat of the summer here in Washington (and Virginia, of course) with a great tropical fruit flavour that adds sweetness, but also tart qualities, but enough wheat and salt to make this complex, yet easy-drinking and super-refreshing - an amazing summer beer - I hope to find more before summer ends here! I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Giant in Alexandria (Potomac Yard), Virginia on 15-April-2021 for US$1,99 sampled at my house here in Washington on 23-August-2021.

$2.10 can from Wine Warehouse. Pours slightly hazy pale golden with a white head. Aroma is STRONG passion fruit, cat piss, BO. The cat piss and BO are just the passion fruit, I think, and it's not that they're bad, but this is what I'm reminded of. The aroma is VERY strong. Flavor is tart passion fruit, bread crumbs and crust, grass, citrus rind. This is very flavorful.
