Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Triple Fruited Mango

Appearance

A pale golden hue with excellent clarity and bright luminosity. The head forms quickly and dissipates to a delicate lacing that clings to the glass. Fine carbonation creates an inviting visual presentation characteristic of well-executed wild ales.

Aroma

Intense alphonso mango dominates the nose, delivering ripe, juicy stone fruit character with subtle tropical sweetness. Beneath the fruit lies a soft funk from the mixed fermentation—earthy, slightly funky notes that ground the aromatic profile without overpowering. A whisper of citrus zest and white peach emerges with time in the glass.

Taste

Crisp entry showcasing bright, mouth-watering mango character balanced by moderate sourness that refreshes rather than assaults. The mid-palate is clean and fruity with a gentle sweetness and creamy mouthfeel from the base beer's fermentation profile. Low bitterness (15 IBU) allows the fruit and acidity to lead, while the funk adds complexity and prevents the beer from becoming cloying.

Finish

The finish is dry and refreshing, with residual tropical fruit notes fading gracefully into a subtle funky undertone. Clean departure with minimal harshness, leaving a pleasant citrus-tinged memory on the palate.
