McCash added a new beer Mango With The Flow by 71 Brewing

7.3
Appearance - 7 | Aroma - 7.5 | Flavor - 7.5 | Texture - 7 | Overall - 7

Can thanks to Andy.
Appearance - deep murky purple with a fizzy pinkish-white head.
Nose - funk, an edge of salt, dank and strawberry. The mango is more subtle.
Taste - sweet strawberry leading into salt and spice, there is an undernote of what could be pulped mango flesh.
Palate - medium bodied, sweet middle, dry salty and fairly persistent finish.
Overall - strawberry isn't really a grown up fruit, so not one for putting in beer, in my opinion. However, this has carried itself pretty well.

Can from Appellation Wines.
Appearance - hazy, pale orange with a quickly disappearing head.
Nose - lemon and orange more than the grapefruit.
Taste - lemon again, with the orange almost going into blood orange. The grapefruit is perhaps contributing to the slightly pithy and very zesty finish.
Palate - light bodied, but textured. Zesty finish.
Overall - good example of the style.
