Mango Hazy Assassin

Tap to rate

Tropical fruit flavours from Citra, Galaxy and Mosaic, enhanced by natural mango and the kiss of sweetness that comes with it. Side fact: the mango goes in as natural mango, and the base is the brewery's own hazy IPA, juiced up. Rooster's started out in Harrogate in 1993.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Mango Hazy Assassin

◎ Appearance

Pale straw yellow with a hazy, opaque body that catches light diffusely. A thick, creamy white head forms readily and clings to the glass with persistent lacing. Fine carbonation manifests as a gentle fizz rather than aggressive bubbles, lending a soft, pillowy mouthfeel.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with ripe mango and stone fruit, immediately inviting and round. Citra, Galaxy and Mosaic hops layer in bright citrus notes—lime zest and grapefruit—without aggressive herbalism. Subtle sweetness from natural mango sits beneath, suggesting tropical juice rather than candy.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and fruity, with mango sweetness spreading across the mid-palate before gentle hop bitterness surfaces. The bitterness remains restrained (50 IBU), never strident; instead it frames the tropical fruit rather than dominating. Mosaic and Galaxy contribute subtle pine and passionfruit notes that fold into the overall juicy, refreshing character.

◑ Finish

The finish is clean and moderately dry, with mango and citrus lingering briefly before fading. No harsh grip or lingering bitterness—just a refreshing drydown that invites another sip.

Tulip glass

The curved shape concentrates hop aromas and supports a thick head. Essential for aromatic ales and IPAs where the nose is half the experience.
