You need to see it through when you get an idea you just can’t shake. And this is one of those ideas. Big Black Mango is a black sour beer with licorice and mango. Alluring, like an 80’s black light poster. Enticing, like a stroboscope. A bass drum and snare. Crash! Many years ago, we took inspiration from candy and brewed a one-off, 3,5% vol. beer called Black Apple. A black sour beer! An apple and licorice sour beer. It did not take long for that beer to become one of our most requested beers to bring back. So a few years later, we did another one-off, a bigger one. The new version was a 6% vol. Bigger, blacker, and applier. A beer placed somewhere between fantasy and reality. It still had all the properties of the original beer, just more of them. Since then, Big Black Apple has become a grail for many. So when it was time to bring back the apple beer, we thought it only appropriate to let it come back with a friend. That friend was Big Black Violet. And now, we’re extending the family even further! Big Black Mango is all you ever wanted in a fruit and licorice beer, and then some. Get ready. Wierd-good!

Sample at Billie's Craft Beer Fest, Antwerp 2024-11-08. Black with aroma of mango, liquorice and winegums. Very sweet, light bitter and very acidic. Finish is mango ice cream with liquorice syrup. Strange but pretty good.

Pours very dark, clear brown. Scent is sharp, mango, mild to hidden roast. Taste is sharp, acidic (lactic), mango. Liquorice turns it sweet, straight up sweet towards the end. Fun, but not smooth or refined.

Draught Small rim over red-highlighted black beer. Sweet and fruit, red fruit concentrate, bit of chocolate, vanilla ice cream. Sourish, beetroot, mango, citrus, chocolate hints. Underlying sweetness of liquorice. Thick viscous with always the slightest sourish fruitflavour rounding off. Strange at first, but finally quite rewarding.
