16oz can. Poured out a clear, golden orange color with a small, white head of foam. It left minimal lacing. It smelled of guava, pineapple, orange and some caramel. Nice tartness from the guava. Sweet orange and pineapple with a caramel backbone.

Pours a slightly cloudy, but by no means opaque golden color. Thin, weak white head forms on the beer but quickly disappears. Aroma is orange, pineapple and some subtle notes of guava with some hints of wheat coming through.
Taste follows the nose with notes of fresh orange and pineapple - with the guava taking on a much more prominent role in the flavor profile. Underlying the fruit notes is a moderately sour beer with a wheated malt base. The presentation is of a more traditional berliner weisse with fruits added in. It does not have the thick smoothie like fruit in it or the pastry additives and as a result its much lighter and easy drinking than most fruited sours. Feel is, as I mentioned lighter and more easy drinking - perfect for a hot day. Reminds me a lot of the Revolution "Freedom of" series. Bright carbonation. Semi-dry finish.
Overall it's a great fruited sour - tasty, refreshing and easy drinking. Picked a single can of this up on a whim, but I'll be grabbing more of it.
