Matso’s Mango Beer

Brewed by Matso’s Broome Brewery
Style: Fruit Beer
Broome, Australia

Serve in Flute

Bottle 330ml. Not beer. Aromas of mango and band-aid. Taste is sweet and short-lived. Palate is thin and fizzy.

Bottle. Smells just like a mango fruit juice - very sweet. It is the same in the mouth, but there is some balance through the dryness. Not great though.

Far too sweet. This is all about the mango. Musky mango on the nose and palate. Nothing special

Not beer. Fizzy water with loads of fake mango flavour plus a dash of ethanol. My group of friends all loved it... idiots. Should be illegal to call this a beer.

mate brought this back from W.A, gave it to me on a trip up to port stephens. the moment i opened it, all you could smell was sickly sweet mango. When i tasted it, it was as if someone had picked a mango off the ground after letting it sit in the sun for 2 weeks, then putting it in a bottle. still cant eat mango after drinking this.

330ml bottle. Very light and fizzy. Honey amber colur with a slight smattering of tiny bubbles. Aroma of mangoes, very sweet. Tastes like a very sweet soft drink with a sweet flavour and dry finish.

[Bottle] Pours cheap apple juice gold with basically no head. Aroma is quite nice--a lot of mango mostly, with some malt noticeable as well. Taste is mango up front, but then it blends, or should I say clashes, with the malt. Not the best combination (although the longer I drank it the better they seemed to work together--not sure if it was due to the warming or whether I just got used to it). Some bitterness apparent when I swallow, but not much there. Thin, with a good length finish that switches back and forth between the fruit and malt. Could be fairly drinkable on a hot day (I’ll revisit it this summer), and although I wasn’t crazy about it, it did show enough promise to make me interested to see mango used in some other beers.

Found in my local bottle shop now stocking Matso’s beer HORAY. For my first fruit beer the aroma was great. Flavor OK but I just don’t think fruit beers are my style. Would go down better after mowing the lawns as a refreshing beverage not very sesionable.
