Sampler at Breakwater. Interesting concet. Pours cloudy golden/orange with white head. Aroma had plenty of mango to be noted. Taste, light mango, yeasty, wheat, sweet that hints at the sweet touch of fresh mango juice. Mouthfeel remains thick. Not sure why it is entered as a wheat.

Sampler at Breakwater. Pours golden, thick white head, with lasting head. Aroma, piney hops Taste, superbly hoppy, pine, light fruits, with light bitter finish and a tad spices. Love the use of hops in DIPA and the hops are there but just ruining the whole palate. @ 9.4% this was easy to drink and amazingly tasty.
