Our signature milkshake pale ale. In and outside of Hungary, if you say Mad Scientist, this is the first beer that comes to people's mind since 2016. Beyond the sweetness, the woody and pungent taste of mango is completed by the creaminess of lactose. Let this be your guilty pleasure!

On tap at Lajbah, pours a cloudy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is loaded with fresh mangoes, with not much else. Flavour is loaded with fresh juicy mangoes, pulp, and light floral notes. This is basically pithy mango juice. Fresh and drinkable. Fun stuff.

Tap at the Kuzin Bar, Budapest. Poured a murky light brown with a frothy white head. The aroma is mango, malt, mineral earthy hop. The flavour is moderate to light sweet, light bitter with a smooth fresh dry malt, yeasty, big mango fruit, woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Superb. Much better than I expected.

Bottle, shared with Zvone! We were looking forward the most to trying this as it fared the best on a previous Mad Scientist tasting, but... you'll see. Initially a lovely, lovely mango juice aroma that, at times, deteriorates into miiiiild puke touch, nothing too bad, but annoying because otherwise the fruitiness is so great. Still juicy in the taste, lovely in that aspect, it has a herbal bitterish finish that came more up front during that time (spent in a fridge!) and kinda clashes, especially as it builds up into a long bitter finish. Initially a winner, not too long after, it just doesn't thrill as much. A winner perhaps, but a very, very sensitive one, overly so. Hope to try it again though.
