Our Berliner base conditioned on nearly irresponsible amounts of Mango, Dragon Fruit and Pink Guava. Expect a deep fluorescent fuchsia like red with flavors of deeply pungent guava flesh.

Had on tap. Dark fuchsia body with pinkish white foam, absolutely stunning. Smell is lead by the pink guava, then the dragon fruit, then mango supporting with hints of passion fruit and lemon. Taste is a nice blend of all the title fruits, with decent sour wheat and acidity, like sour tropical punch. Feel is well rounded, juicy, and slightly sour

On tap at Triple Crossing Brewing in Richmond, VA.
This one pours a beautiful reddish/pink color, slightly hazy, with a small head, and lots of lacing.
Drgonfruit dominates the aroma here, as it's typically a fairly assertive fruit. There's definitely some sour mango, but I'm not sure I actually get any guava. I do get a grassy funk and some lemon, though.
This is very delicious. It's not quite Answer/Veil/Mortalis/etc smoothie level in terms of taste, but it's certainly extremely fruit forward. There's a nice clean acidity on the back end - nothing intense, with a slight bitterness. Dragonfruit and mango dominate here, and make for an extremely refreshing drink.
This is light bodied, clean and fruity, with a very good level of drinkability.
It's cool to see Triple Crossing nail clean and traditional lagers while also making high quality fruit gloop.

This beer matched ok with spicy food, I was surprised. The color is beautiful and the fruit is perfect with the tartness. I don't normally drink this style of beer but it was delicious.
