Mango doesn't help this IPA. But then again, when has Mango ever helped an IPA? Mango, some lemon. I still get a little nectarine. Golden pour with ok head. More sweetness in the finish than the original. Tap at brewery.

Bubbly, half flat, couple days old from a weekend event @Churchkey. Juicy nose, iodine, salt, mellow nose. Juicy mango puree upfront, orange, slight itchy grain, slight acid but zero tart, then a big citrus rindy bitterness hits & lingers forever. Liked, but I don't love cask & just couldn't do a 20oz pour of this.

On tap @Churchkey. Extra frothy, hazy. Mild Brett funk on the dusty, dry-hopped, wildflower honey nose. Lemon, dry cereal, dirt, straw, honey floral, bitter greens. Frothy, pushy carb, half sharp, decent acid, minerally, itchy, a touch soapy, kind of like oatmeal. Good.

Tap @Churchkey. Clear, a touch dusty, mostly still, pale ginger pour. Sharp melon, lemon, slightly sweet vinegar nose. Taste is grainy, lemon, pinchy kiwi sour, light floral on the middle end. Dredgy finish. Doable but not great.

Newly tapped as I was leaving. Only bottle for sale in the fridge so I'm guessing they had a lot left. Hazy, dark caramel, sort of still pour. Keg was tapped as other things ran out. Fumy. Mushed up fruit, lemon tea, wood & a bit too much age. Bitter sharp apple, wood, murky-old berry fruit, black tea. Nearly still, deep, juicy, boozy, oxidized, mushy flavors. Okay but better fresh.

Proper Shaw. Short pour. Clear, bright, dark copper, icky lace. Crusty bread & mild clove nose. Mellow pretzel, salt, custard sweetness, very slight spice, not a lot of bite, not a ton of carb, good salt on the finish. Could have had a full pour. Good.

@Right Proper. Clear, bright copper pour. Dark bread & lots of sweet clove nose. Caramel, herbal, fennel, clove, bittersweet. Crispy, sharp, a bit of acid. Milder as it warms. Good-ish. Just don't love the spiced flavor.

Proper @Shaw. Tulip. Clear, slightly dull, copper brew, extra frothy. Herbally pine, rich caramel, faintly medicinal hop nose. Taste is bittergreen & bittersweet, peppery, leaning on a citrus rind bitter. Sizzling carbonation. Liked that acid. Lingering pith. Good.
