Mango Magnifico (2016)

Fruit Beer

Mango Magnifico is a high-gravity fruit beer brewed with mango and a touch of habaneros to add just the right amount of heat. The delicate flavors imparted by the sweet richness of the mango are punctuated perfectly by the subtle heat of the habaneros, proving that fruit beers do not have to be one-note. Each 750mL bottle of this 10% ABV ale is both sophisticated and refreshing, making it the perfect beer to share… or to keep all to yourself.

Nose of mango soaked in rum. Alcohol is crazy well hidden.

Better than expected! Mango sweetness followed by subtle heat from the pepper.

Very nice still. Strong mango plus fruit sweetness with some significant heat in the background. Still quite good!

Doing a side by side of the old fave with the new batch. Still one of my all time favorite beers, the old girl wins against the new chick. Sweeter, richer, full of sludge-y goodness at the bottom. The new one ain’t too bad though…

A shadow of its former self, but a nice trip down memory lane with friends.

Had a bottle stashed in my cellar forever. I feel like it was better fresh. Heat creeps up in the back of your tongue and throat when you drink it, but the mango has gone off some now. Tons of floaters in this one now as well.

Wow. Mellowed nicely. Still heat on the end, but the mango is so smooth

Held on to this since 2016 as an experiment. Mango dissipated quickly and the heat hits you in the back of the throat. Fresh was definitely better.

The first time I had this, the original batch, it was fantastic. Too spicy, beautifully fruited, excellent. The second time, the 2016 batch, trash. As my friend Karen described it "perfumey" (to this day one of my favorite flavor descriptors ever)

Batch 2 was always too sweet and it’s still too sweet. Some peppers in the finish.

Still plenty of habanero burn after 4 years! On the lookout for the current version to compare.
