On-tap at Hunahpu day. Nice work JW.

A: This is insanley reddish pink. Small pink head lingers for the entire glass.

A: Passion and dragon fruit abound. Other citrus in the mix as well. The aroma is clearly leading me to beleive this one will be sour.

T: Oh boy this is nice. Sweet fruit with the sourness expected from a berliner. Slight malty undertones, but lets not kid ourselves this is all about the fruit used. It finishes sweet and sour.

M: Thin body, aggressive carbonation. Just right.

D and overall impression: Drinkability is just below perfect, if I can give this beer a knock, it would be, after about 6 glasses it might get a touch sweet, but really, just splitting hairs. Overall this was one of the highlights of a day that included some of the best beer on the planet. Don't know if we will ever get to have this again, but here's to hoping. Skal.
