Collaboration with J. Wakefield Brewing
This beachy Berliner blends guava and coconut to produce a 5.1% ABV Guava bomb fit for a day of beachfront debauchery. Pouring a tropical pink in color, it will transport you to the streets of Wynwood to view murals en route to pours at J. Wake.

Fairly mild head production with retention to match. Body is a shade of dark orange, opaque in a thick glass, with noticeable particulates and floaties at the edge of the glass.
Very sweet on the nose, with the coconut showing up unexpectedly strong against the guava. Definitely smells like a mildly sour tropical mixed drink. Incredibly fruity.
Similar on the palate: surprisingly smooth and easy drinking; very low sourness, to the point that I wouldn't really call it a sour beer so much as a fruit beer; wonderfully natural and organic tasting notes of coconut and guava. The guava is disappointingly restrained; I had hoped for much more. I can't argue the result, however, as if you're looking for a very fruity, slightly sour tropical drink, this delivers. Slightly pungent and earthy, with the guava becoming more pronounced as the beer slowly warms.
Surprisingly full and creamy body for 5.1% ABV. You might want something more crushable, but it just seems to work for the flavor profile.
This beer brings me back to drinking Sangria on the Atlantic shore of Spain, or Rum Runners out of the ubiquitous Tiki huts of the Florida Keys. In other words: they freaking nailed it.

Thank you SouthernSips for this
16 oz can poured into an oversized wine glass
A- A hazy pinkish orange with a small off white head.
S- Tart, lots of guava, touch of coconut, hints of wheat.
T- Tart, again guava is the focus and main flavor, some coconut, gummy bears, some lemons, touch of wheat and lacto.
M- Smooth, light to medium body.
O- Can lists this as a Berliner Weisse and in drinking this it comes off as a fruit forward Berliner not something that is so overpowered by the fruit purée that it is fruit juice or a smoothie.

A: The beer is very hazy pinkish yellow in color. It poured with just a narrow collar of white bubbles around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of guava are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell and has lots of guava fruit along with hints of coconuts towards the finish.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is hardly sour at all and is quite refreshing with all of its tropical aromas and flavors.
Serving type: can

16oz can into a pint glass. Canned 10/21/20, so a month old.
Looking very good in the glass. Peachy light tan colored body. Small white head persists in good form throughout leaving some lacing.
Aroma is strongly of guava and a little peachy.
On tasting, the fruit flavors are front and centre. There is a coconut presence, and no coating of the tongue. It's both tart and sweet. Well brewed.
Mouth above medium, finish sweet tart fruitiness
Overall, pretty good beer. The fruit is luscious, the base beer isn't lost, and the coconut doesn't coat the tongue.
