Pour is a hazy orange with a large white head. Aroma is pretty much all mango. Flavor is some mango flavoring but there is a follow up huge bitterness. Smelled great tasted kind of weird. There was some mango but wow was this bitter on the back end.

Ever so slightly hazy golden and peach coloured body with a very thin, barely a centimetre tall pure white head. Aroma of very fruity notes with pure mangoes coming through with a lot of floral and grassy hops as well, but those coming from the fruits are much stronger. Light to Medium-bodied; Strong mango and pure fruity flavours up front with some lighter, and non-bittering hops with a dose of flowers and some dry notes with a dash of herbal and grassy funk towards the end that hits quite strong, especially at the finale. Aftertaste is still trying to battle past the bitterness and funk from the finish, with a little grainy and almost lager-y like biscuity malt notes, but the mangoes do cut through and make this quite nice. Overall, a good and enjoyable beer that shows less on the IPA spectrum and more on the fruit-beer side of things. I sampled this twelve ounce, stubby bottle, purchased earlier in the day from Hy-Vee in Lincoln, Nebraska on 10-October-2019 for US$1,67 sampled in my hotel room here in Lincoln, Nebraska on 10-October-2019.
