This beer has a great smell of fresh cut mangos, the appearance is a little cloudy with mild carbonation. It has a mild bitterness in the backend that is pleasant when mixed with the light mango on the tongue. This is a great slow drink in the heat of a late summers day.

Bottle:
This beer pours with a medium haze. Carbonation streams are visible, but the head is pretty much invisible.
Nose is light, with a sort of wood-like sweet funk or tang. I do not get blood orange myself - but I do like the nose even if it isn't very traditional for the style.
Taste start with that tang - a much lower level of tartness than I expect from a Gose. The tang is indistinct, but I get a peach to stone fruit flavor going into mid taste. With some warmth, I do start to get the fruit addition in this beer with maybe a hint of that lemongrass/coconut flavor (which I believe came across as woody funk initially).
A nice soft feel with the salt being obvious throughout, adding to that soft feel. It is missing the sour or even tart bite, though.
An interesting beer that I ended up enjoying for its strangeness. I wouldn't be expecting a traditional sour Gose with this one though.
