12 ounce can into pint glass, canned on 7/29/2018. Pours very hazy/cloudy medium golden yellow color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and fluffy white head with poor retention, that reduces to nothing pretty quickly. No lacing, some clinging bubbles and streaming carbonation. Good appearance. Aromas of juicy, lightly tart/tangy mangoes, fruit skin, lemon, peach, pear, melon, red apple, wheat, cracker, and white bread dough; with light notes of banana, peppercorn, clove, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of mangoes, fruity/light spicy yeast, and pale/wheat malt notes; with solid strength. Taste of juicy, lightly tart/tangy mangoes, fruit skin, lemon, peach, pear, melon, red apple, wheat, cracker, and white bread dough; with light notes of banana, peppercorn, clove, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Light herbal, floral, grassy bitterness; fruit/wheat tang/tartness; and yeast spiciness on the finish. Lingering notes of mangoes, fruit skin, lemon, peach, pear, melon, red apple, wheat, cracker, white bread dough, light banana/pepper/clove, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice complexity, robustness, and balance of mangoes, fruity/light spicy yeast, and pale/wheat malt flavors; with a great malt/bitter/spiciness, and tart/tangy fruit balance; with no cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Fairly crisp/clean finishing. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitter/spiciness, tart/tangy fruit, and carbonation. Medium-plus carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/grainy, and fairly sticky/acidic/tangy balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4%. Overall this is a very nice fruited American pale wheat ale. All around nice complexity, robustness, and balance of mangoes, fruity/light spicy yeast, and pale/wheat malt flavors; very smooth, refreshing, and fairly crisp/clean to drink with the mildly bitter/spicy/tart/tangy/drying finish. Very flavorful and not watery for the ABV. Well balanced authentic mango and American wheat yeast complexity; with a great pale/wheat malt backbone for the ABV. Minimal residual sweetness with crisp dryness. A very enjoyable offering, and impressive base style example.

12 ounce can from Woodman's Appleton, 6/18/19. I might hate this (got sick on watermelon as a kid) but I won't hold it against the beer. Hazy yellow, large foamy white head, good retention. Aroma of watermelon and cataloupe. Taste is cantaloupe primary with honey and pale malt. Thankfully not much watermelon. Medium bodied, juicy.

[12oz can from Total Wines, Brea, CA.] A hazy amber pour with a thick cream head; aroma of pineapple and tropical fruit salad; smooth body with more pineapple flavour than you could imagine piling in with some mango in support; then a dry apricoty finish - not much sign of any beer though.
