🌍 USA · Fruited IPA · One of 19 Fruited IPAs in hopIQ

Relax Mango takes the Relax hazy IPA and ferments it together with mango, so the fruit goes through fermentation instead of being added afterwards, and the beer is not sweetened back. The Citra, Amarillo, Centennial and Simcoe base already leans tropical, and the fruit pushes it further: ripe mango flesh and pineapple up front, orange and a light stone-fruit note behind, over soft oats. The body is round and creamy, the bitterness mild, and the finish fruity with a faint bitter edge.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Relax Mango

◎ Appearance

Pale golden with a hazy, opaque quality characteristic of the style. The head is modest but persistent, with fine carbonation visible throughout. Lacing clings softly to the glass as the beer is consumed.

pale goldenhazyfine carbonation

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe mango and pineapple, driven by the fermented fruit integration rather than a late addition. The Citra, Amarillo, Centennial and Simcoe hops underscore this with their own tropical character, layering orange zest and subtle stone-fruit notes. Soft, grainy malts provide a gentle backdrop without asserting themselves.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with juicy mango and pineapple, carried across a round, creamy body built on soft oats. The bitterness remains mild and integrated, never sharp, while stone-fruit notes emerge in the mid-palate. The malt character stays subdued, allowing fruit and hop character to occupy the foreground.

◑ Finish

The finish is fruity and moderately long, with a faint bitter edge providing structure and preventing any cloying sweetness. The mango fades gracefully into a clean, dry conclusion.
