Excite your senses with this unique, wild, and amazing flavor combination of mango, hot pepper sauce, AND barrel-aging! The spicy-hot character of barrel-aged hot pepper sauce really brightens-up the rich creamy taste of our Mango Turbo Shandy like never before.

Dark sparkling amber with a short fizzy khaki head disappearing to nothing but a roiling central circle.

Spicy spicy heat hits the back palate and throat, while the overly sweet mango is still more than apparent. You'd think the pepper would mitigate that, but not as much as the more successful tower version they did with fresh peppers and regular Turbo. The mango also has an apple and Swedish Fish character, as a touch of shortbread malt backs it all.

The body is smoothly round, lightly crisp and semi-sticky. Despite the heat, it's easy drinking if you can tolerate spicy stuff, and quite enjoyable.
