Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a golden/orange color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of oranges, mango. Taste has plenty of mango, light oranges, slightly sweet. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a pretty good beer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mandarin & Mango Crush has a medium, fizzing-away head and a translucent, yellow-orange appearance, with bubbles, but no lacing. The aroma is of fruits and a malt base. The flavor is similar, with no bitterness and measured sweetness. Mandarin & Mango Crush has a medium body and a mostly-dry finish.

On tap on 12/17/2022. Virtually no head, hazy, light orange in color; strong sweet mango aroma, with a mild hop balance balance in the finish. Very drinkable, and thirst quenching. Nice for summer heat or with (or as) dessert.

I've had this one in the fridge for over 6 months and always forget that it's there. It really would've been ideal for the summer, but I suppose a cold December night works too. So just a straight up Fruit Beer? It's odd they wouldn't want to give it a more interesting base style if they're going for something sour-adjacent but I suppose it doesn't matter. Let's get into it

Pours a murky orange gold with a finger of white head that quickly fades to nothing and leaves no lacing

There's a nice fruity brightness in the nose that I'm digging, but it hardly comes off as tart. I'm picking up on aromas of orange juice, tangerine, bready malt, honey, overripe mango, and lightly tart guava

It's pretty good up front, but it just gets very sweet on the swallow which knocks it down a bit. On the front end of the sip I'm tasting mango, tangerine zest, orange juice, crackery malt, light honey, apple skin, and lemon zest. The swallow brings notes of orange juice, sweet honey, bready malt, overripe mango, and cereal grain

A medium body pairs with moderate carbonation, resulting in a slick beer. Finishes neutral but far too sweet

This one is really odd. It just falls flat of everything it's trying to be. Oh well

The head is white and thin, and dissipates quickly. The color is a very light, slightly hazy amber. The smell is mango and citrus, orange and lemon. The taste is mostly citrus, primarily orange but also lemon, and the feel is light and a bit sparkling.
