Bottle. Orange colour with a small white head. Sweet fruity aroma with passion fruit. Quite sweet fruity flavour with passion fruit, peach, hint of malt and some sourness. Quite sweet and artificial taste.

Pours deep orange with a low head. Aroma is passion fruit and malts. Flavor is mostly passion fruit with a slight hint of malts. Sweet but drinkable.

250 ml bottle. Finland.
Hazy pink red colour with tiny white head. Fruit aroma with some sourness and sweetness. Flavour is also very fruity. Some tartness than sweetness though. The tartness makes it drinkable. Aftertaste is rather sweet. Not much beery qualities in this one.

Hazy peach coloured body with a touch rosy glow and a very thin pinkish head. Aroma of peaches, apricots, pears, sugars and perhaps a bit of passionfruit (red). Medium to Full-bodied; Sweet sweet flavour with a definite alcohol kick (despite being low in ABV) with some light malt and a ton of fruit flavours, mostly apple and pear with a touch of peach and apricot notes - no passionfruit at all to speak of. Aftertaste is full actually with a bit of a potent note and a lot of sugars of course. Overall, more of a fruit beer than a lambic, but nice to try given that one of my favourite fruits is the passionfruit, but this beer simply isn’t like the fruit at all and doesn’t taste good at all - just sweet. I sampled this 25 cL bottle (best by - HK dates: 23 September 2011) purchased at CitySuper! [2 IFC Mall] in Central, Hong Kong for HK$13,00 on 24-August-2011 sampled later in the day at my hotel room in Central, Hong Kong on 24-August-2011.

Bottle 25cl, an unnatural orange color beer with no head !!! Nose is very fruity. Aroma is intense on artificial passion fruit, very sweet and a awful aspartame finish, again a poor fruit beer, ugly.

Bottled. Parfymey and fruity nose. Pale head. Hazy orange colour. Sourish fruity taste. Slightly bitter. Some hints of orange. Also some peachiness.

Bottle from Beer Planet, one year past date! Pours a hazy mahogany-orange colour with a white head. Aroma is semi-sweet passion fruit, wood, cherries and a hint of raspberries I think. Flavour is sweet with some balancing tartness, mainly passion fruit but also cherries and a hint of malt. Finishes with a long sweet simi-tart passion fruit after taste. Very refreshing on a hot day, Ill gladly drink this instead of a soda.

Bottle - 250ml. Hazy peach/orange body with a thin white foamy head. Aroma is dominated by peach and passion fruit. It carries some malty hints. Taste is also dominated by fruitiness. Ends with a short sweet/sour finish.

Pours with barely any head and a muddy orange that looks like mango juice. Faint aroma of passion fruit. Taste is an odd sweetness with carbonation showing through and a bitter finish. Essentially carbonated passion fruit with alcohol. Where’s the beer?

Early amateur rating warning! Not a bad passion fruit flavour, a bit watery.
