My favorite beer by far. I know it's sweet and some may say it's not a beer. I don't care! I love that it tastes great, unlike ANY of the other "Ritas" I've tried. I just wish I could find it in the Texoma area!

Pours a headless orange yellow. Nose is canned mango juice and nectar, and unlike other entrants in the Rita series, does a good job of hiding the booze. Taste follows, nectar dominant, and only on the finish does the cheap alcohol begin to raise its head. Of the Rita's I've sampled, the best of a sad bunch.

Mang-O-Rita has lots of fizzy bubbles and no foam nor lacing. The appearance is opaque orange. The aroma is of mangoes and pale malt, and the flavor is the same, with a Splenda brand sweetness. Mouthfeel is medium, and Mang-O-Rita finishes (high-fructose corn syrup) drying. It's top-notch, for what it is, but I just don't like what it is.

(25 oz can, code 19173; purchased cold... poured into a 28 oz mug)
L: as is typical with this line (shaking my head, being too familiar with it, but only review-cently), hazy liquid with a fizzy, fleeting foam... liquid color is almost on par with Irn Bru or an Igloo cooler
S: mango Jolly Rancher - nothing more to add
T: 'mango' soda syrup?; bit of spectrum swipe of medicinal, phenolic, saccharine flavors in the finish... intensely (sugary) flavorful, but only 10% malt liquor-ish, if that...
F: slight fuzzy fizz on contact; vaguely drawn-out/slick... like a flat soda halfway through... extra 1/4 pt for the ethanol being super smooth
O: another gap-filling review... flavor-assaulting, soft-drinky, fizzy liquid boozy candy... like a fizzy Boones Farm thang... at this age, I rarely try to get drunk, but I'd hate to be reduced to relying on this to take me away; blech!... (1529)

Whoo boy, this one is something. In my earlier drinking days I'd go grab one of these and down it while I watched my friend Kelly stream games. It was an abhorrent experience for the most part, every swig made my face contort and exhale like a noob drinker.
Overwhelming fruity smell. The overall taste is artificial mango, cheap margarita mix like what they put in the dollaritas at Applebee's, and beer water. Syrupy as it gets. I only punished myself with this a few times and apparently the other flavors are worse, so I guess I should be thankful. Not sure why I ever had one more than once.

Is it ok to essentially start a review with "well this is the least shitty variation" of this beer? I think its a good summary of the review. Anyways, pours as usual looking nothing like beer, looks more like some tonic water with nothing but alka seltzer and some coloring added. What a weird fizzy creation. Aroma was slightly mango-esque, so it didn't miss the mark by much there.
Taste, the mango character is also there in the taste. But its all downhill after hitting that extract. Still super fizzy. Lacks a malt, yeast or hop aspect of the beer, but hey, this hits that adjunct spot with some sugar added in to cover up the alcohol. Its nowhere near as offputting as the lime one is.

Bought a 25oz can $2.69 Marukai
Strong smell of mangoes
Bright orange color
Light carbonation
Heavy mouthfeel
Very sweet mango taste, alcohol aftertaste
Overall not good as is. It does deliver a mango taste so my ratings reflect that. If you blend it with ice then it become a decent blended drink as the melted ice helps to reduce the sweetness. As is it is more like a juice concentrate. Blend it with ice as I think is intended then you can up the score to a 3.0 as a margarita mix. I definitely would not categorize as beer.

Poured into a tall, cold glass filled with ice. Looks appealing, like mango punch. Tastes like a strong cheapo wine cooler. Reminds me of Cisco, although it's been a long time since I've had one. I'm not a big fan of mango, so I might enjoy the other flavors more.

I'm not giving this a full on review, it's a simple kind of mixed drink that tastes a good deal like Mango with a mild bitter kick to it, it's enjoyable and 8 oz is all you need.
