What Our Panel Thought

Aroma: “So much mango and tropical fruit juice, with a side of peach candy. It jumps out of the glass. Slight tartness, moderate sweetness, and a touch of acidity. Light floral hops, with earthy vegetal notes.”

Flavor: “Mango really shines through with some sweetness but not as sweet as the aroma would suggest. Still, it’s not very tart for a kettle sour, and there’s only a light hops bitterness. The body is somewhat thin.”

Overall: “The mango is definitely the dominant characteristic. The flavors were light and delicate but nice and refreshing. But the tartness is too low for the style, and complexity is lacking to finish this beer out.”

What the Brewers Say

“A series inspired by the iconic fruit cart vendors of Los Angeles. A light, refreshing wheat ale with lots of fresh mango and a pleasant, slightly tart finish.”
