OBF 2004. Hair-salon/nail polish nose with some fruit. Thick and syrupy fruit, lemons, oranges and banana. A little alcohol bite, or maybe that’s the chemical taste. Not as bad as the aroma, but still mediocre.

(OBF04) Hazy golden body with off-white head. Aroma is medium sweet, caetone, light mango. Taste is medium sweet, mango, astringency. Light body.

Light gold color. Aroma is fruity with a touch of hairspray? I guess it could be banana, clove and honeysuckle. A medium bodied fruit beer. Malts are fruity and sweet. Mango flavor is there but sort of subtle. Hops are slightly bitter. Very mild fruit flavors. I am assuming that mango may NOT be the best fruit to make a fruit beer with, it may not have enough flavor to combat the hops and malts. A little chemical tasting as well. Light and refreshing though. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.
