A series inspired by the iconic fruit cart vendors of Los Angeles. A light, refreshing wheat ale with lots of fresh mango and a pleasant, slightly tart
finish.

Hazy straw color, massive white head wisps away fast, no lace. Canned white peaches, white grape, mango, slight lemon, adjuncts. Like canned fruit in syrup. A bit flat and heavy with a syrupy sweet finish. Very little beer character, the malt profile is reminiscent of a light macro lager, with no discernable grain notes, other than a slight tang from the wheat. Overall, its a drinkable beverage ice cold on a hot day. But its one dimensional, and frankly, barely a beer.

On tap at Crave. Just like it's named, a tart fruity beer with mango being dominant. Light ABV but a little heavy on sweet. It's a nice 4 oz. addition to a flight.

Great fruity beer. Not too sweet nor too tart. Refreshing with just a hint of the wheat brew. It contains a strong carbonation and is an attractive mango color.

Straight from SNL: "Mango...Mango..."...
Light on ABV, but full on taste, this ale is something very nice to look at, has the sweetest smell you can imagine (all of it mangoes and tangerines), and a mouthfeel that is actually full-bodied, while being very crisp and very carbonated. The beer has a decent blend of mangoes, tangerines, and just a light flavoring of barely, no hops detected, as well. Overall, it's a great summertime beer for having on hand at the beach or poolside, but it could have done a bit better if the abv was a percent or percent-and-a-half higher.

I love this beer, it is relatively light but the taste of the mango cuts through. It smells like mango and is relatively light in color. It's super refreshing and delicious!
