Pulpy orange body, murky. Mild passion fruit tartness, medium lemon acetic acidity, mild strawberry sweetness. The citrus is nice and forward here, gives it a bit of OJ character and everything else adds a mild acetic acidity. Medium body, good carb.

Pours a thick mango juice color with a light orange barley there head. It smells like mostly oranges and strawberries with just a touch of tropical fruit underneath. The taste is one of the best smoothie sours I've had. The orange goes very very well with the strawberry. There's not a huge passion fruit presence in the taste but it doesn't detract from the quality at all. It's thick like a smoothie with a refreshing light carbonation and goes down way easier than anything over 7% alcohol should. Awesome smoothie sour from drekker.

Another adult Jamba Juice, is this really a beer? The beer is 42 degrees and served in a tulip glass. The pour of the beer created a one-fingered creamy orange head with poor retention. The color of the beer is a dull peach with reddish-orange hues. The beer has zero clarity and is thick. The beer does not represent any standard color in the SRM charts. This beer gets its color from the fruit crammed into this beer. The appearance of the beer is negligible and will get a whatever rating.

The aromas in the beer are pear, tropical, orange, strawberry, oak, vanilla, and milk. Nosing further, I detect lightly toasted malts, floral, and fruity sweetness.

The flavor in the beer is tropical, vanilla, pears, oranges, strawberries, oak, vanilla, milk, fruity sweetness, floral, and cut grass. The beer does have that kettle sourness, that gives a lemon and tartness to finish.

The mouthfeel of the beer is thick, carbonated, and tart.

The body of the beer is thick, low carbonation, and a full finish.

This beer is stupid good. The flavors are bright and represent all the fruit equally. The vanilla and oak beautifully finish the beer. I enjoy these beer or fruit smoothies for adults.

A: The beer is very murky yellowish brown in color. It poured with a short white head that quickly died down, leaving a narrow collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of passion fruit are present in the nose along with notes of oranges.
T: The taste has flavors of passion fruit and orange along with hints of strawberry. There is a light amount of sourness.
M: It feels nearly medium-bodied and juicy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation. There are bits of "slushiness" in the mouthfeel.
O: This beer tastes like a tropical fruit smoothie with a little added sourness.

Drekker PassionFruit/Strawberry/Orange BRAAAAAAAAins Double Fruit Smoothie Sour, 7.4%ABV. Pours gloppy thick and opaque orange, with a one-finger off-white head that left fruit puree residue instead of lacing. Nose is strawberry, orange, and vanilla. Taste follows plus passionfruit, equally sweet and tart, with salt on the close. Mouthfeel is thick and smooth with good carbonation. Overall excellent.

Pours a thick ruby red orange color with a thin eggshell white head. Smell is fresh fruit as advertised on can. Taste is superb fresh and ripe Passionfruit with strawberry then fresh pulp orange is strong in the finish. Mouth is ripe and slight tart with fruit some sweetness. Very nice fruited sour.
