Smells kinda skunky, like some jungle juice concoction that's sat out too long -- citrus, pineapple, fruity tang. Likewise, the taste is very citrussy up front, with strong undertones of that juicy mango and pineapple as well as some coconut backbone. It feels like something halfway to a sour ale, with a thicker mouthfeel, but the lingering flavor it leaves just leaves bad memories of nights of way too many cocktails.

L: thin ivory head fizzles away very quickly atop a cloudy tangerine colored ale
S: candied mango, creamy lactose, citrus
T: coconut, lactose, dried mango, oats, orange zest, grapefruit, sun tan lotion
F: medium body, lower carbonation, oddly bitter and pungent finish yet still very sweet
O: I haven't had a beer this bad in a long time. Drain pour
