Avery Liliko'i Kepolo
Witbeer with Passionfruit
Luscious. Juicy. Tart. And like no other! Adding a tropical island flair to a spicy traditional witbier, Liliko’i Kepolo erupt with monumental passionfruit aroma and acidity along with a sublimely succulent finish.

On tap at Krafted Bar and Bistro, Burlington. Pours hazy gold with a thin white head. Aroma is citrus saison and light malt. Flavour is creamy smooth saison with sharp crispness Finish is slightly bitter but fresh and amazing.
At Louisville beer shop. Hazy blond colored beer with large white head and no carbonation. Fruited apple yeasty aroma. Full sparkling palate. Finish is fruited sour dry.6
No head which is disappointing. Very carbonated and fruity. Tastes more like some kind of mixed drink than a beer. Won’t get it again. Why is the overall rating on this beer so high? Misleading...this is pretty bad.
Super opaque golden and peach coloured body with an ultra-fast-dying tan head like soda, but the bubbles are pervasive and ever-present. Aroma of pungent lilikoi (passionfruit), guava, mangoes, wheat, coriander seed and a dose of lactose and brett. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong tropical fruit flavours dominate the initial flavours with the wheat and yeast coming afterwards with the deeper tart and sweetness on the finish, but very refreshing throughout the sample. Aftertaste is very clean, but the tropical fruit notes, especially the passionfruit flavours are exceptional, but some of the other tastes, such as the wheat and yeast are great as well and very enjoyable throughout. Overall, a very nice beer to sample, especially on a super hot summer day, as this packs a lot of flavour and finish, but goes down very easily still! Nice to have - even away from the islands of Hawai'i! I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Whole Foods in Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia on 03-May-2019 for US$2,99 sampled at home in Washington on 20-May-2019.
Golden with thin white head, tonnes of fruit with a light sourness. Very interesting!
Can. Pours very hazy orange juice color. Aroma is canned peaches. Tart, spices, acidic, dry, fruity. Strange that it's a wit beer with lots of fresh fruit. Not sure what passion fruit tastes like, but that sugary canned peach taste is there.
Pours hazy bright golden with a full, white head with yellow tint. Aroma is passion fruit and bread. Taste is passion fruit and light honey, moving to bread and some cinnamon. Finish is wheaty.
I wasnt expecting this to be tart, but the flavors of citrus and passion fruit are in front and center. Highly fizzy with a creamy head
Ananaksinen tuoksu mehumaine hyvä ananaksen maku juuri sopivasti hapan.
12 oz can. Aroma smells tart and citrusy, almost like orange juice. Pours a yellowish-orange color with plenty of haze, can't see through it. A nice combination of sweet and sour, quite tart. Nice sour finish. A nice tart white ale. If you enjoy shandys give this one a try, you won;t be disappointed.
Draught @ Bakgården Både &, Kristiansand
Pours hazy orange with a off-white head. Aroma has notes of malt, wheat, passionfruit and coriander. Taste is medium sweet, light bitter and light sour. Taste is medium sweet, light bitter and light sour with a long slightly tart, passionfruit, coriander, wheat and orange finish. Body is medium, texture is thin to oily, carbonation is soft.
Poured from the tap. Very cloudy, murky yellowy orange with minimal white head. Wheat and juicy passion fruit.
Fruity AF (tart) (Christina hate’s it.)
355ml can bought at Vinmonopolet Sortland. Filmy white layer, hazy orange-gold body, fair lacing. Tropical fruity aroma. Ginger spiced fruity tartness to the taste buds. Juicy mid-tart ending. Medium boded. Satisfying. (Shared wit Pål and Edit, Stokmarknes 16.07.2018).
Bottle. Cloudy gold in color. With a nice head. Fruity tasting and fruity in aroma.
355 ml can at Werckmeisters place, canned 23.2.2018, shared by Rob, many thanks! Pours a very light, hazy orange with a white head. Lots of passion fruit in the aroma along with lemon, nettle, wheat - interesting, unusual smell. Medium body with hardly any carbonation, a light sweetness and a light bitterness. Flavor of sweet passion fruit, wheat, banana and lemon. Finishes dry with a light fruity tartness. Good, very fruity Wit.

12oz can at home shared by Rob, big thanks. Canned 02/23/2018. dark yellow cloudy color, small white head. smells of ginger, earthy, flowery, passion fruit, lightly grassy. nice smell. medium body, light carbonation, slick mouthfeel. tastes earthy, citric, grassy, passion fruit, spices, bit peppery. finishes lightly dry and very lightly sour with notes of passion fruit, citrus and some spices. quite nice to drink this one. quite enjoyable.
A passion fruit white ale, which is good if you like passion fruit and witbier. I'm only in for half of this equation, so all I'm really getting from this pint is a hankering for some White Rascal. Juicy, tart passion fruit blasts the palate from the get-go, while the subtle wit flavors percolate on the back side of the brew, adding a moderate grass-n-clove sweetness offset by lingering fruitiness and yeast emerging in the fade. Gorgeous hazed gold pour gives up a massive white head with good lacing. Creamy yet medium-bodied and perky feel works well. Not my thing, but a well-crafted beer regardless.
Can. Pours a cloudy golden color with no head. Aroma of tropical fruit, banana and some spice. taste of tropical fruit, light malt sweetness and a bit of spice. Bit tart with a fairly clean finish. Moderate body, nice tart feel, refreshing and flavorful. Nice summertime offering. Tasty.

Cloudy, opaque, orange body with a small, short-lived, off-white head that disappears completely, leaving my beer looking like a glass of tropical juice. Hm. Crisp, fruity and strong aroma of passionfruit and other tropical fruits, and citrus, with minerals in the back. Moderate flavour of passionfruit, pineapple, and other slightly tart tropical fruits, and minerals. Lime and peach in the back, also traces of banana. Light sweet and light acidic taste, hardly any bitterness. Medium body, juicy mouthfeel, quite soft carbonation. A tasty passionfruit beer, with not much Belgian yeast coming through the fruits.
[35.5 cl can, enjoyed 9 months after canning, from Vinmonopolet Oslo City]
Draught at Mikkeller SF. Hazy orange color, white head. Sweet taste with citrus, passion fruit, mango, peach and wheat. Sweet finish with citrus, mango, passion fruit, peach, earthy notes and wheat. Total fruit juice, in a rather good way.
12 fl oz can. Pours bright orange. Passionfruit, tangy passionfruit, pepper, biscuit, real passionfruit flavour, bit of banana bread. Medium body. Odd combination but I like it.
While I've had Avery beers in the past, most of them have been a whopping "its okay" in my book until today. This beer is pleasantly unexpected. Think hefeweizen with a twist.
The tartness of the passionfruit is refreshing and can be enjoyed by even the most outspoken sour-haters. Overall, really solid beer, but not worthy of my top 10.
Can. Pour is so viscous looking. Looks like a hefe and there is virtually no head to speak of. Smells somewhat like orange juice. Yes, every taste starts with that sweet orange juice nose. Passion fruit fer sher on the tongue. Thicker, smoother passion palate. I typically don't like thicker feeling beers but this seems to be OK. So, lilikoi means passion fruit, I get it. This is certainly a slightly tart fruit beer with passion fruit fer sher but just not sure if it is up there wit the best fruit beers, simply not bad. Nowhere near as good as

An orange and totally murky beer, a head is small and blond. Aroma has strong and rich passionfruit, hint of wheat and thartness. Taste has strong passionfruit, mild tartness, also hint of citrus. Medium bodied. Starting from the appearance to the end, passionfruit juice. Tasteful.
On tap at Både&. An unclear orange colored beer with a small off-white head. Lacing. Banana and lots of passion fruit in the aroma, else little. It's full bodied, soft and quite dry on the palate, with a little bitterness and a spiced touch. Peach notes and quit a lot of passion fruit. Some malt hints. Lasting fruity finish. Nice indeed, but a bit one dimensional. 180301
Nice and refreshing. Great tiki bar beer which fits perfectly. Could use some more sour or other distinguishing flavor.
Hazy Golden pour. Lots of Mandarin orange, mango, banana, tropical fruit. Delightful.
Pours hazy orange, beautiful soapy white head, some of it it's yellow. Strong fresh passion fruit and wheat malts aroma. Tastes tart and sweet, typical witbier character, fruity and malty, smooth and yeasty, but with loads of fresh passion fruit juice. Notes of banana and coriander. Very tasty and easy to drink summer beer, crisp, tart, refreshing. Nice.
