Just Toorf Peach/Passionfruit
Ascension Brewing Company

Smell: Dank, onion, garlic, peppercorn, guava. You get a lot of sweet natural peach under that dankness. Peach skin, mango, orange, apricot,passion fruit. The beer has a really natural tart fruit smell which is awesome. As far as the adjuncts go the peach comes through a little more than the passion fruit, but both are present. The nose on this beer is so damn good!

Taste: The flavor is unreal! This is a fruit bomb that assults the taste buds. The fruit flavor is so natural in this beer nothing artificial about it at all. I’m getting a big natural fruit sweetness upfront that turns extremely tart in the mid palette and into the finish. The beer has a puckering sour tartness to it. The dankness that was on the nose waves hello in the mid palette as the fruit train passes by. As far as exactly what I’m tasting there is a ton of peach, peach skin, mango, orange, passion fruit, guava,apricot, peppercorn, onion, tart fruit. The tartness lingers around for a long time in the finish and is just like a sweet tart.

Feel: Medium to Full body. The beer is smooth, soft, and silky. This just glides and goes down so easy. The full mouthfeel is absolutely incredible for a beer with this low of an ABV.

Overall: Every aspect of this beer is spot on. There is absolutely nothing I would change. This is a banger!

16 ounce can into tulip glass; no can dating, but was just released. Pours opaquely murky golden orange/amber/greenish color with a minimal spotty lace cap that reduces to nothing pretty quickly. No lacing on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Good appearance. Aromas of big juicy/tart/tangy peaches, apricot, passion fruit, fruit skin, orange juice, pineapple, berry, lemon, lime, pear, red/green apple, white grape, hay, straw, grass, wheat, white bread, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of peach, passion fruit, fruity/acidic yeast, and pale/wheat malt notes; with great strength. Taste of huge juicy/tart/tangy peaches, apricot, passion fruit, fruit skin, orange juice, pineapple, berry, lemon, lime, pear, red/green apple, white grape, hay, straw, grass, wheat, white bread, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate fruity/lactic tart/sourness, and fruit tang on the finish. Lingering notes of tart/tangy peaches, apricot, passion fruit, fruit skin, orange juice, pineapple, berry, lemon, lime, pear, red/green apple, white grape, hay, straw, grass, wheat, white bread, light lacto funk, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a while. Incredible complexity, robustness, and balance of peach, passion fruit, fruity/acidic yeast, and pale/wheat malt flavors; with an awesome malt/tartness and tangy fruit balance; with no cloying/puckering flavors after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering tart/sourness and tangy fruit. Medium carbonation and medium-plus body; with a very smooth, creamy/pulpy, and fairly acidic/tangy/tannic balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 3.5%. Overall this is a fantastic fruit smoothie sour! All around outstanding complexity, robustness, and balance of peach, passion fruit, fruity/acidic yeast, and pale/wheat malt flavors; very smooth and pretty refreshing to drink with the modestly acidic/tangy/tannic/drying finish, not overly lactic. Advertised as a fruit beer, but I had a feeling it would be a sour. Insanely juicy/pulpy fruit; with balanced Lacto complexity, and pale/wheat malts against acidity. A highly enjoyable offering, and spot on style example. Have not had many like this before.
