A thanks to the phenomenal woodychandler for this beer. Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a golden/orange color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is full of passion fruit. Taste is also full of passion fruit, slightly tart, very refreshing, Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall, here is where I deduct points. I enjoyed this beer, but it's nothing in it's profile is like a Hefeweizen.

A - Hazy deep orange brown in appearance good looking head just a 1/4 inch of froth that settles to a good ring.
S - Full of tart fruit good passionfruit and strawberry combo. Moderate wheat smells again nice and tart.
T - Flavor is a bit mild but it's there the tartness takes a backseat to the wheat which is OK I guess. Good taste.
M - Smooth body a bit heavier than I expected but easy to crush.
Overall love the peach this one is good as well

L: Slightly hazed golden pour with 1.5 fingers of creamy white head. Retention is good... nice ring of lacing.
S: Tart and fruity. Tropical passionfruit and wheat.
T.F: Wheat beer base... so grainy with some yeast. Slightly sweet/tart passionfruit gives it some tropical character. A bit of citrus. Light bodied and well carbonated. A bit of tartness at the finish.
O: More interesting than your typical wheat. This smells delicious... but the fruit component is milder on the flavor. An easy crushing beer. I'd have it again.

From a 12 fl oz can packaged on 12/09/19. Sampled Feb 8, 2020.
It looks like it should with slightly hazy golden yellow appearance under a tremendous long lasting ivory head.
The aroma is bright with passion fruit, which was to be expected, along with the yeasty and clove-induced toastiness of a Wit.
Light body.
The passion fruit is forward in the taste while the yeast and toast hovers around in the background. Easy drinking and mild dry finish.
