Sample at the SF Beer Week Opening Gala. Pours hazy golden, small off-white head, good lacing. Aroma is huge passionfruit, guava, other things I eat when in Hawaii. Flavor has minimal bitterness, lightly tart, really juicy. Agree with Joe; hardly a Saison, but what it is is really tasty. Wife hated it :)

On tap at the 2016 SF beer week opening gala. It pours a pale yellow color with a small white head. The aroma has lots of passionfruit with a hint of dank. The flavor is the same. Low to medium tartness with some passionfruit and lime. Like most of these kinds of beers, it’s hard to pick out any Saison character, so it ends up tasting like a light bodied, tart fruit beer. Not a bad thing by any means, but it bugs me that it’s labeled as a Saison for some reason. Either way, this was a tasty beverage.
