Bottle but the old label still said Laughing Buddha. Pours out a golden yellow topped with a off white head. Aroma was of light mango and some toast malts. Taste more of the light fruitiness and some sweet candy notes. Pretty ho hum.

Bottle pours a very cloudy orange with a modest but tight off-white head. Some mango aroma and a little bit of stale bread. Flavor is a basic mild american wheat with a hint of soft mango. not over powering and definitely not mango soda pop ish. The unfiltered feel is nice and petty much what I expected. Mild, a bit bland but with an interesting twist. carbonation was a littel soft. but it works here. Doesn’t try too hard to be a "Fruit Beer" and it is good for what it is.

Bomber from Liquid Solutions. Pours hazy orange gold with a small white head. Aromas of mango and wheat. Medium body with lightly frothy carbonation. Flavor is mango, citrus and yeasty wheat. Finish is a bit gummy, but the fruit kind of cleans that up. The citrus aspect makes it just the least bit sour. Refreshing stuff.

From Skyview. Mango in the flavor and aroma. Some wheat as well, clearly recognizable as a wheat beer, with some yeast. A little sweet. Cloudy orange color and thick palate.

Super cloudy, alright - opaque orange coloured body with a thin white head. Aroma of potent mangoes, hops, coriander seed and a bunch of wheat and yeast. Medium-bodied; Strong fruity flavour up front of mangoes and apricots fades to a potent fake sugar flavour that just reminds you of aspartame and then fading to a sour pungent fruit flavour - very interesting and complex throughout. Overall, pretty complex and shows nice flavours, but some of the flavours are way too off for me. I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Bottleworks in Seattle, Washington on 25-April-2009 sampled in Reston, Virginia on 10-July-2009.

Bomber, labeled as "Trade Route Mango Weizen" - I bought this one because it sounded interesting, and I was looking for something light and refreshing for this weather - turbid, fizzy pour, with a head that disappears completely shortly after the pour - tangy, wheaty aroma, with notes of hard to identify fruits - light, refreshing and tangy, even a little tart - quite a bit of orange, lemon, and lime - a bit of yeastiness and wheat through the middle - the mango finally comes out in the finish, along with some notes of melon rind - it’s a refreshing beer, and a creative take on a weizen, but as far as the style is concerned, despite its originality, I probably wouldn’t reach for this one again when I want a hefe.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a small, white head that fades over a hazed yellow body. Aroma of wheat, dirt, mango and banana. Taste is CO2 and fizz, dry watery fruit and wheat. Very fizzy.

500ml. Murky orange-brown color. Very well executed beer. Starts off with a solid Weizen mouthfeel which fades into a pleasant mango aftertaste instead banana. I can see purists sticking up their noses at this one, but I think it works quite well. A good balanced beer. Worth trying.
