12 ounce can at Cooper’s Riverview in Trenton. Hazy gold pour. Brief white head. Aroma at sweet mango and bready malt. Flavor is more of the same. Sweet mango, juicy peach and bready malt. Little hop presence to speak of. Refreshing.

Sample at Harpoon Larry's. Smooth, big mango and apricot-peach stone fruit nose. Flavor is a bit sweet, not much bitterness, this is a classic beer for those who don't like beer to get into it. Nice!

Can, at some point. Light grain, sweet malts. Wheat, but not too strong. Some mango. This was perfectly fine for a macro-focused beer.

Draft at Circle Bowl, 8/4/24. Hazy yellowish-orange. Overly sweet artificial mango juice. That's pretty much it.

Notes from 6/17/19 Edit: I think this was before AB bought them, dunno. Cans from the local ABC in Maui. Had a few of these every other day for a spell while down by the pool. Would be very surprised to hear if anyone ever said anything to their pricey patrons about drinking $2 outside beers by their pool. Anyway, they were solid. Stange glass at home. Thick, pineapple pour. Flimsy head. Obvious fresh ripe mango juice nose. Light yeasty envelope. Taste is doughy yeast & a mix of mango & orange juice with a little banana & a twinge of last second bitterness. Zippy carbonation, chewy texture. Fruity, but not malty or insincerely sweet. Easy, simple, natural-tasting & refreshing.
