12 ounce bottle thanks to Craig. Pours a clear orange color with a large white head. A big nose of passionfruit and grain. The flavor is similar: fruity, easy, honey, light caramel. Good.

Pours cloudy yellow without much head but layered lacing. Has aroma of yeast with a small note of brett, but since I’m unfamiliar with cas the sourness could be from the fruit as well. Gives it some sourness and a little bitter. Tastes a little like a berliner weisse. Some faint sweetness in aftertaste. Ok. Makes me wonder what the fruit tastes like. Had this in The Point bar just outside of Puerto Viejo de Talamanca. Tap.

Smells pretty hoppy. Pours clear orange with good lacing. Long lasting head. Taste is bitter with a note of sweetness. Nice soft carbonation. Some citrus peel in aroma. Bottle at Quijongos.

A very good beer for style. Either that or I’ve had too much trash recently. Smells of crisp barley and a little floral hops. Pours dark gold with good lacing. Carbonation is pretty high. Taste is a little bitter and crisp. Went all the way to the brewery to try this and they wouldn’t sell me less than 24, so had to walk a km down the road to this place called Quijongoby the gas station on the main road. Bottle.
