Poured from a crowler sent by @akatz821
The look is a orangish/pink color, no head to speak of. Very thin.
The smell is all peach and mango, smells like a kids juice box.
Taste is straight juice with a small amount of carbonation. Peach, peach skin, mango.
Feel is light and thin with a good amount of carbonation.
Overall the taste and smell are very nice, but it just doesn’t feel like I am drinking a beer.

This seriously looks like neon orange sherbet. If you don't roll the crowler around before opening, it will be a little less opaque from the top of the can, but will quickly thicken up a third of the way down.
The smell is mango-carrot puree, exclusively.
Taste starts with a barely acidic passionfruit and mango, but a thick, creamy vanilla creme anglaise-like ribbon glides throughout and tamps down any beer-like characteristics that allegedly exist. If this doesn't taste like a melted Flintstones push pop, I don't know what does.
Body is medium and velvety, and the finish is nothing but Slip N Slide wet.
This is V8 Splash, not beer. Dumb.

Nice murky orange color. Smell is huge mango and peach. Flavor is over the top fruit. Like a smoothie. All mango, all peach. Don't get much of the passionfruit, but who cares? This is stoopid joose

L: Had this beer on-tap at The Answer Brewpub, poured into a snifter glass. Had an orange color and a thick consistency. Almost looks like orange juice. There was a small amount of foamy head that quickly dissipated. Fair lacing.
S: An enticing, sweet and fruity aroma of tropical fruit, peaches, wheat, and salt.
T: Tasted of a bit of peaches (it's easy for these to get overwhelmed), some light wheat notes, lots of tropical fruit (mango, passion fruit), and some light sea salt. This is a vibrantly fruity flavor that's light and sweet. Strangely, it's more subtle than I expected, but it's still flavorful.
F: An average amount of carbonation with a lively finish. Light-bodied.
O: Not your typical Berliner weisse, but it still works. Drinkable.

Straight up juice bomb. It really blurs the line on what is beer and what is fruit juice. But the mouthfeel/texture is great, the fruit and flavor is amazing. If it's juice then it's some of the best juice I have ever had.
