Summer Jam - Passion Fruit
Barrel Culture Brewing and Blending

 

 

Received in a trade. Time to see if this brewery is all local hype or not. Shared with JLindros. Review #3100.

A - Poured into a Kate the Great tulip a nice slightly hazy orange golden hue with a nice white head that fades to leave nice halo.

S - Aromas of huge passion fruit, fresh and bright. Very very subtle vinous notes. Really smells like a glass of passion fruit! Absolutely incredible.

T - Taste is similar to the nose. Enormous passion fruit, musty and lightly funky. Really just drinks like a glass of passion fruit juice. Great tartness and maybe a flash of vinous notes. Not much in the way of beer notes but man oh man.

M - Mouthfeel is nicely carbonated, crisp. A little flemmy.

O - Overall this was a very amazing very beer. The passion fruit is almost comically huge. Incredibly impressive and utterly shocking. Definitely NOT hype.
