This looks like orange juice except for the very brief head. (No lace).
Unbelievable powerful mango smell, similar to apricot. This is equalled by the hot spices. Absolutely stunningly different...and attractive and inviting.
Lowly carbonated with a rich body. Very sweet with a strong dose of hot sauce. Like the smell, this is a fascinating beer that defies understanding until it's tried. I'm told the beer has been made into a sorbet which is apt way to view the taste. It's sour but this is the third strongest flavor in the beer.
Overall, it's novelty, but one worth trying out for the complex composition.
