APPEARANCE: Pours a small, medium looking, fizzy white head that quickly recedes to a thin wisp. Muddy amber yellow with no real carbonation evident. Perfectly opaque.

SMELL: Plenty of passion fruit, some tropical notes like mango and lemon aromas, hints of tangerine and some caramel on the nose. Solid and tropical.

TASTE: Less palatable flavor here. Passion fruit and tropical notes still, but also some overly fermented fruit and a dank, moldy character as well. Perhaps some rotten mango quality here. Medium strength finish of tropical flavors, some moldy character and still that over-the-hill mango lingers. Not quite that pleasant.

PALATE: Medium body and medium carbonation. Creamy enough on the palate, goes down smooth and finishes a touch drier. A hint of bitterness lingers.

OVERALL: No thanks. The nose on this one is solid, but the flavor doesn’t work out. There’s an old, almost rotten fruit quality to it that’s simply off-putting. Perhaps this is a yeast issue, but can't say for sure. In any case, this is not one I'd try again unless a new batch came out at some point. Pass for now.
