An absolute juice bomb of a sour milkshake IPA. Lactose and vanilla perfectly compliment the sour IPA with loads of mango and a mosaic dry hop.

A: The beer is very hazy yellow in color and poured with just a thin ring of white bubbles around the edge of the glass.
S: Light aromas of mangos are present in the nose along with notes of sourness and hints of lactose.
T: The taste has sour flavors of mangos along with hints of lactose, the latter of which are most noticeable in the finish. No bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied and faintly tart on the palate with a low to moderate amount of carbonation.
O: I found this IPA to be interesting as it managed to combine the flavors of mangos, sourness, and lactose very well. It wasn't as "juicy" compared to other New England IPAs.
Serving type: crowler

A fluffy white head holds at one and one-half inches for a minute. A dense coating of fine lace is quickly deposited on a PBGC IIPA glass. The beer itself is murky gold at SRM 5.
The aroma is dominated by juicy pineapple and mango. Grapefruit is also prominent and there is a background of sourness.
Wow! The fresh juiciness of this beer is tremendous. Both mango and grapefruit shine while the bitterness and sweetness are well controlled and balanced. This has a light sourness and a long, fresh fruity finish.
A full body and juicy texture is complimented by alcohol within expectations. The carbonation is modest.
It is always exciting to try beer from a new brewery, especially so when that beer is great. As an Autumn treat, Mango It Was Written works quite well. I imagine it would also be just right on a hot Summer day, especially given that the alcohol is low enough to enjoy over an afternoon.
