Pretty nice beer. I like this one, and great to have a good bitter IPA with body. Some orange peel and fresh tangerine. Grapefruit. Quite fresh, and one of the better Mandarina Bavaria showings I've tried. Golden pour with decent head. Bitter finish.

Tap. Pours hazy deep golden, medium off-white head, dissipates to a ring with decent lacing. Aroma is light, hints of corn, caramel, honey, grass. Flavor is light plus sweet, very light bitter malty with a corny note, honey, hints of biscuit, grass. Light plus body, soft mouthfeel. Inoffensive. Another competent rendition of an unexciting style.

Tap. Pours a bit hazy golden, medium off white head, dissipates to a ring with decent lacing. Aroma is high on clove, hints of bubblegum, black jack. Flavor is light sweet, minimal bitterness, loads of cloves, banana in the background as well. Light body. Pretty decent, lacking the silkiness of mouthfeel and more prominent banana of the best. Banana notes do linger on the finish, however.
