12oz can. Can bottom stamp reads 'BEST BY09/13/23'.
Cloudy, pale gold colored body. One finger of white head slowly recedes to a full cap. Leaves behind partial rings of lacing.
Aroma is mango-y, but seems forced and artificial.
Taste has some tangy wheat, which seems okay, but the mango-y flavor is industrial and gets acrid at the end (almost like old coffee).
Pleasant mouth feel, medium on the scale, and a clean finish. Good carbonation.
Difficult to finish due to the whole mango-y thing.

Southern Tier is clearly a trend follower and not a trend setter and this is another example. Candy mango flavor, something odd at the finish. Its like Mango Cart from Golden Road essentially. Not terrible but not good, just okay. All this place seems to do now is trying to "answer" another product, whether it's Crushworthy or Juice Force

Clear orangey-gold, with 1.5 fingers of white head.
Smell is semi-sweet mango candy.
Taste is , not surprisingly, the same mango candy as in the aroma. Slight aspartame-like aftertaste , that knocks it down a notch.
Feel is light, but not watery, with moderate , very fine, carbonation tingle.
Overall, this seems another in the growing list of attempts at bridging the beer/seltzer gap. & once again, I have to give it a one-&-done assessment. The best one I've had to date, but still won't be looking to have it again.
