From a bottle. Pour had a clean, straw honey color to it with a white foam head. Scent is fresh and a nicely mango, but otherwise quite unassuming and the peach is hard to notice (if you remind yourself it is there, you will semll it). The mango comes across less so on the taste, but in some ways this is a benefit as it allows the more refreshing qualities to be present. Easily a beer one could keep drinking for refreshment in the summer without the sweetness overwhelming. Feel is on the lighter side, which works well for considering the muted fruit flavors. Hard to place it exactly given my expectations for a bit more fruit countered by its refreshing qualities.

12oz bottle from the variety pack. Here we go
Clear and bubbly, light cap of suds. Looks like budweiser. Smells of equal parts urinal cake and axe body spray for women. Tastes like a cheap ale with peach perfume sprayed on top. Thin, easy to drink, the only off-putting flavor is the artificial(?) peach, it's okay but goes 'rubbery' sometimes.
Easy to drink but you're missing nothing here. Just an alcohol delivery system for people who don't like beer. Probably better than my review makes it out to be

From the lower left side of the label: "BEST BY 08.07.20 04:40:24"
Appearance: The body is a pale gold color with very good clarity. It has a short creamy textured white head that sticks to the glass pretty well. Decent retention and some snail trails of lacing.
Aroma: Peaches leap out of the glass as soon as the nose approaches. There is a note of apricot as well. It smells very nice. It smells a lot like a peach Jolly Rancher.
Taste: It tastes like a peach Jolly Rancher up front. This flavor surrounds the outsides of the tongue but never really solidifies on the tongue. As a whole it tastes like peach infused water.
Mouthfeel: It feels light bodied and thin with high carbonation. It is refreshing but in the way that water is refreshing.
Overall: The label states that this is a "PEACH MANGO BEER" but it doesn't state whether fruit or flavorings were used. It tastes a and smells a lot like a peach Jolly Rancher but it leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to the base beer and anything other than peach. There isn't much here and I wouldn't recommend it as a whole unless you like all things peach.
