I had this on tap at the micro brewery bar recently.
I saw the previous review and personally I think they must have worked on this beer since the previous review was done.
The beer pours a standard pale wheat beer colour.
The aroma was not strong mango at all but a fruitiness that wasn't overpowering.
The mango has been relegated to a part of the beer, not the dominating flavour.
The flavours where standard wheat beer fruitiness, but not the overly banana, clove and so on that some love and others despise...
Overall I would say this beer now has a good balance between the fruit and the base beer. Mango is a sweet taste that could easily dominate the beer, and in the past it appears it did, but it doesn't in this case.

This was Zerodegree's rotating special beer when I visited the brewpub recently.
It pours a very cloudy, dark yellowish hue, with no head what-so-ever. Looking pretty flat, though I suspect it's mixed with their Wheat Ale base.
Deep and semi-sweet dried mango-slice (like the popular Philippino fruit snack) note, so predominant that almost no other smell, esp. the supposed wheat-ale base, can cut its way through...
The palate is like the nose, overly mangoish with a medium-rich preserved-fruity taste and a very very faint flavour of beer. Quite soft and fruity overall, but this beer fails a big time being a fruit beer with a supposedly delightful balance b/w the two main components. My GF said that if not consumed at a pub, she might even feel she's drinking a fermented mango juice!! I pretty much share this opinion and I'm sure this decent brewpub can make more serious efforts on their fruit beer range. Not recommended.
