Servaes Passionfruit Distant Light
What the brewers say
“Smoothie-style gose. ... This version features passion fruit and watermelon.”
What our panel thought
“Looks like fruit juice, smells like guava juice with sulfur, tastes like sweet-and-sour guava juice. It’s thick, and the cloying sweetness doesn’t seem to want to go away. Super-yeasty nose, cut with orange pulp. Smoothie is right—they’ve nailed the mouthfeel and the salt adds to the creaminess.”
What our editors thought
“Slight Pacific fruit funk on the nose with a softer melon note rounding it out. The pale pink color is gorgeous. Intensely sweet and rather overwhelming—a fruity dessert beer for those with a sweet tooth.”
