A log more mango beers than I would have guessed. Bottle. Almost no head on pale amber. Smell of sugar and fruit which I guess could be mango. Too sweet to really taste the mango. Hard to tell its even beer. My wife like it.

33cl bottle @ home shared with a friend. Slightly hazy yellow-orange, small white head. Smells incredibly sweet with a slight artificial fruityness. Taste is basically the same. Low body, low carbo.

sweet sugar, dusty mango nose, fluffy white head, super sweet mango yoghurt, well carbonated, sweet aftertaste. not too bad

Bière fruité, ou blanche pleine d’extrait de mangue. Dommage c’est un de mes fruits préférés. Retrouve cette couleur dorée-paille brumeuse, col blanc. Arôme est effectivement de mangue, le tout est comme souvent surfait, mais bon j’aime le bouquet. En bouche, pas vraiment de quoi écrire un roman, une bière à la mangue sous une base de blanche, que demander de plus? cela ravis la foule qui se pousse au Délirium. Bref, pas mauvaise pour les saisons chaudes, facile à boire, un peu trop sucrée et une mangue qui tient son rôle.

April 2010: I buy these sort of beers for my wife when I’m in Belgium and although I’m thanked they rarely get drank by the good lady. This one is no different, I’m having to drink and review it! This is a 330ml brown bottle, just in date and poured into a Duvel glass. A snow white foaming head sat on top of a dull, slightly cloudy, off golden body. I am not the worlds biggest Mango fan, so the smell didn’t excite me, being mostly, well completely actually, Mango flavoured. I bet you can’t guess what the beer tasted of? Yip, Mango’s, I liked it however. No messing around here, the beer delivers what it claims, Mango’s, and Mango’s in an abundance. Nowhere near as sweet as I’d expected, it is sweet, but not sickly or overly so. This would have gone down great with a bowl of plain Ice Cream or a selection of fresh fruits after a god meal. Pleasantly suprised, not too bad at all. I’m even looking forward to my Floris Passion Fruit bottle a little more than I was.

Bottle. Hazy yellow color with a small white head. Slightly mango aroma and taste. Mouthfeel is quite soar..

dough, grass, cereal, cough drop, woody, orange, cloudy, minimal head, heavy cloying sweetness, lightly bitter, light body, creamy, average carbonation,

Bottle. 3.6%. Slightly hazy golden-orange. Aroma of mango, somewhat artificial, and a bit of sugar. Sweet mango flavor with sugar and light sourish hints, mostly towards the finish. Light-bodied. Actually more drinkable than expected.

Pours orange with a nice head, aroma and flavor of mango sweets and some sweetener, light bodied, bad

Bottle, small stable head, hazy light orange colour, aroma of tropical fruits and spice, sweet fruity flavour with just light hints of bitterness and sourness. Too much like a soft drink and not like a beer.
