    I wish it were a year round offering. Definitely one of the more interesting DIPAs in my opinion.

    Troegs triple mango ipa was incredible. So thick and juicy almost as if they put mango in the blender

    Tired Hands Third Level. All Citra hops I believe. Juiciest ipa I've ever had

    A lot of people say that Abrasive is pine forward, but I get a ton of tropical fruits in that beer.

    Fresh Abrasive is a grapefruit bomb when it's fresh, lots of fruit.

    Which version? I had the Antahnum recently, and while I thought it was a good IPA, it seemed to be lacking in the tropical taste department.

    I had Calypso after, and I found it to be one of the most bitter and unpleasant beers that I have ever had. It was so bitter I had a hard time even depicting the flavor profile.

    I hear the Citra version is amazing, and hope to try that one soon!

    Chillwave is way past at this point. I had one the other day I drain poured after 2 sips. Malt bomb.

    Troegs Perpetual Imperial Pale Ale and Victory Hop Ranch and DirtWolf both have mango notes.

    Only problem is Troegs has only brewed it twice, so who knows when they'll do it again.

    My choices are:

    GL Chillwave
    Deschutes Fresh Squeezed
    BP Sculpin
    CC Jai Alai
    Victory Dirtwolf

    Had a friend that always called Daisy Cutter a "mango" beer.
    Get it fresh

    These have already been mentioned, but I'll list them again, as they have the biggest mango flavors I've found in any other beers.
    • pseudoSue
    • King Sue
    • Tasmanian IPA

    I've been enjoying Kona Castaway and would describe it as very tropical fruits - mango, etc.

    never ever tasted mango in an IPA. Mangos, to me, are soapy and floral, and not very "tropical" tasting, despite what they are.

    Two hearted has always tasted like candy pineapple, and for that I will always hold it dearly.
