A golden ale made without hops and blended with over three and a half pounds per gallon of Guava, Mango and Peach incorporated at packaging. This is our modern spin on the ancient Gruit style, which showcases the fruit. In this version we decided to amp things up a bit by re blending the fruit ratio’s and increasing the amount added.

This one pours an extremely gloopy-looking golden orange, with a small head, and lots of sticky webbing down the glass.

This smells like all of the fruits listed in the description, and not much else. It's mostly mango to this nose.

The basically tastes like amplified Goya Mango Nectar, which is a good thing to me. This feels like a slight step up from the original (non er) release. This is obviously tastes basically nothing like a Gruit(ier), but I don't think most gloop fans care about that.

This is thick, juicy, and very drinkable, with basically no indication that it's actually beer.

Even though it's technically a Swiftwater beer, this has Mortalis' stamp all over it.
