4.9/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 4 Texture 4 Overall 4.5
500mL bottle, pours a cloudy dark orange with a medium beige head. Aroma is loaded with lots of oak barrels upfront, followed by earthy hops and bready malt. Flavour is unpleasant, with lots of alcohol, intense oak, and old earthy hops. Alcoholic, astringent, and oaky. This is very abrasive. Bad idea and difficult to drink.

Mangoza! from Torque Brewing
7 years ago
5.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 4 Overall 5.5
On tap at Torque, pours a cloudy bright yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings plenty of bright tropical fruits, mixed with yogurty lacto and some citrus. Flavour is more lacto-y than fruity, with the mangoes quite buried, and dominated by lacto and salt. The fruit isn't that prominent, and the whole thing has a sort of butyric character. It's alright.
