Had this at Strange Brew 2019, held on May 18, 2019. I had this around the middle part of the day. Was a combination of the typical yellow color of a blonde ale but with the added color of mango making it lean toward the orange side of things, mild 1/4" head off white. The aroma was more sweet than anything else.

Taste revealed a good exchange between the sweetness of what I perceived as mango, and the spiciness of the chili peppers/salsa. Still had a mild barley grain body, bitterness was subdued, they didn't drape hops all over it. As far as these kinds of beers go, I think relatively balanced is a good descriptor here between the sweet and heat. I don't know that I would want to crush a six pack of this in one setting, but I think a standard pour wouldn't be much of a problem. It was a fun beer at a festival that often has some revolting stuff.
