This beer delivered as promised. Good mango flavor that was not overpowering or overly sweet balanced by a slightly sour wit flavor. It's fairly light and refreshing. I could've easily had two of these but the bar I was at was charging $9 for a 12 oz pour. Ouch!

Probably my overall favorite sour. Everything just works in this beer. Taste exactly like a perfectly ripe mango with the right amount of funk and sourness. The level of sweetness is exactly where it should be aswell.

32 oz. growler poured into a snifter. Murky orange body with a well-retained medium white head. Smell is overpowering mango. Smells like juice and wheat, with some yeast and acidity. Taste is equally dominated by mango. Lightly tart. Equally sweet. Wheat isn’t as prominent. The mango has a bit of an unripe flavor. Medium body. I expected something lighter. Certainly not lacking in flavor, although it’s just one extremely strong flavor.
