Light, refreshing and slightly sour to make a great warm weather beer. The fruit appears as a delicious element of tartness and freshness.

Refreshing Sour. Don't mind this one.. The kiwi is noticeable but on the background.

0.33 l bottle from 'Holy Craft Beer Store', best before March 2019. A little hazy, golden with a thin, frothy, almost stable, white head. Slightly sweetish, sourish, moderately fruity aroma of lemon, rhubarb and kiwi. Medium sour, slightly fruity taste of lemon, rhubarb, some kiwi and a touch of old socks, followed by a short, medium tart, fairly dry finish. Thin to medium body, slightly astringent and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Nice idea which didn't turn out that well. Pretty boring, expected more fruitiness.

Small to medium white head over slightly hazy orangey golden beer. Bit other grains, relatively very little fruitiness, just some undefined esters; further dry kernel spices. Not much lactic in the nose either. Bit smokey onset; peanuts' flavour, finish has finally the Berliner Weisse acidity, even dry-out effect. Some typical, if faraway fruitsugars too. Couldn't identify kiwi, however. Apropriate light body; better carbonated than it looks. OK. Thanks to Sebastian S!
