Got in a BIF from FBarber. 16 ounce can into tulip glass, no can dating. Pours opaquely hazy tropical/mango fruit juice color with a small orange color head with poor retention. Minimal head retention/lacing and moderate streaming carbonation on the glass. Aromas and flavors of big mango and pink guava juice/pulp, lemon, green apple, white grape, wheat, bread dough, hay, grass, and light lacto funk. Light-moderate fruity/lactic tartness and fruit tang in the finish. Medium-high carbonation, light-medium body, and fairly crisp/clean finishing. Balanced fruit juice sweetness, lactic acid, and fruit tangy mouthfeel. Lingering acid/tangy drying, no cloying/puckering. Minimal warming 6.5%. A very clean and refreshing Berliner, not nearly as sour as expected for the style on it's own, but not too sweet either. Really outstanding balance all around. Spot on stuff for a smoothie style Berliner.

Served from the can in a Lagunitas mason jar.

Pours a murky peach-OJ topped by a finger of khaki foam. The nose comprises mango (surprising, I know), orange zest, and a bit of apricot. The taste brings in more of the same, the mango being met by a pineapple-ish bit (is this the pink guava?). The body is a lithe medium, with a light moderate carbonation and a nearly full feel. A pretty solid fruit-full boi, a summer favorite in the making.
