This heavily dry-hopped Milkshake-style IPA was brewed with lactose sugar and apple pectin, and was conditioned on vanilla and a huge amount of mango puree.

Pours like mango juice and looks it as well. The nose is mango in beer. Smells tart.
Thankfully, this isn't as tart as it smells. Thick (for a beer, thin for mango juice) and actually rather nice tasting, with gentle hops bowing down to mango and perhaps other citrus. Silky from lactose.
There is a slightly irritating fume from the booze upon inhale.
Overall, a nice fruity beer.

Hazy as f*ck, a mango juice looking with a small white head going away very fast!
Nose is fruity, mango, citrus, notes of vanilla, sweetness.
Taste like nose predicted this is a fruity bomb, lots of mango fruitiness, vanilla notes, sweetness from lactose with an IPA bitterness.
Creamy mouthfeel from the lactose, abv can't be felt! Amazing concoction!

Lovely! The latest in this insanely popular series of beers is another winner. A balance of mango, vanilla, sweetness and a bitter finish that reminds you that this is still an IPA- of sorts. The vanilla is very strong and tastes excellent- one of the best uses of vanilla in beer I can remember. Smooth, full-bodied feel. It's a hot day and this is perfect.
