Mango Rajah
The Brew Kettle Taproom & Smokehouse / Production Works

 

 

White Rajah with mango? Light White, double, black. Lots of permutations. I often feel as though Brew Kettle is not very experimental but then when they are it often isn't the best result. I only really love White Rajah.

This pours a little darker than normal with nice head. The aroma is subdued but clean. The taste is thankfully not much infected by mangoness in fact it's an extremely subtle fruitiness.

Recommended. If you get stuck with one of these at a party its not the worst that could happen.

Drank 5/29/25
Pour is a slightly cloudy golden yellow with a dense cap of off white foam. Great retention and lacing.
Definitely getting mango on the nose
Taste - some bitter, piney, citrus hops upfront, mango appears mid palate and lingers a bit on the finish. nice balanced bitterness with some bready cracker malt underneath.

more of the WCIPA hop character upfront which is surprising considering how prominent mango on the nose is. Better than I thought it would be for a fruited IPA, which isn't usually my bag. Everything is in nice balance the mango doesn't dominate or get too sweet to detract from the IPA.

I got a can of this beer off the single shelf from my local Giant Eagle store. It poured a slightly hazy golden with white head that is leaving a nice lace. Scent had mango notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with crisp malt base with mango and subtle sweetness presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer.
