Drank on tap at Mekong Restaurant, Richmond, VA
Served in a stemmed glass
Orangey-yellow colored and medium bodied in appearance. The liquid was capped by a large bubbled, fluffy, finger-tall crown that quickly dissolved. This looked quite similar to a mimosa. No lacing or head retention whatsoever.
The aroma was super fruity and bright. I would probably guess tangerine or clementine first. Passionfruit notes were also apparent. Bit of mango too. This definitely smelled more like fruit juice (or fruit flavored soda) than beer.
The flavor was similar to the aroma and also super juice forward. Tart, tangy tangerine and clementine notes initially came to mind. Passionfruit appeared in the center. The beer finished moderately sour with big lemon notes and some lingering, pithy lemon peel.
The mouthfeel was unusual for a beer. It was thinner in body and barely carbonated. Again, very juice like.
Kromer Juice: Mango is a refreshing Berliner Weisse by The Answer that both smelled and tasted more like fruit juice than actual beer. This was crushable beyond belief.

Pours like a glass of mangojuice with almost no head.
Smell is citrusy and lemonadey with notes mango and passionfruit, tart, but not sour.
Taste is basically mango lemonade with just a hint of passionfruit. Trt with a hint of sweetness and low acidity.
Mouthfeel is medium, well carbonated.
Overall, a ridiculously drinkable sour, especially if you ike mango.

Extremely sweet but finishes very clean without any cloying syrup afterwards. Nicely tart but not sour. Really well done.
