Inspired by the Zombie Cocktail, specifically the 1950s Donn Beach iteration. This beer was conditioned on Passion Fruit, Pineapple, Grapefruit, Orange, Lemon, Lime, and a touch of baking spices to mimic Angostura Bitters.

T.F: Tart and fruity. Some sweets as well. Loads of fruit. Passionfruit, pineapple, and grapefruit. Lime and citrus. Not overly sour or acidic. Medium bodied... sticky on the tongue. Passionfruit/lime finish.

O: A well done tart fruited beer. Loads of flavor and easy drinking. Better than I was expecting.

16 oz can

Pours hazy orange, pillowy white head is finely textured and dissipates slowly.

Smells of pineapple, passion fruit, orange, lemon, cinnamon and allspice.

Flavor is of fresh tropical fruits including passion fruit, pineapple and guava over cinnamon and nutmeg. Bitter spiced finish.

Medium to full body, tingly carbonation on the tongue.

This is a cocktail-inspired beer based on Donn Beach Zombie. It's bright and fruity, drinks easily enough. Weird and unique, worth trying at least for novelty.
