BarrelHouse Mango IPA

20180811:
The beer has fruity smell out of the bottle. It has a hazy yellow color with suspended sediments. The head stays around.

Sip #1. The beer is refreshing, juicy, and has a mild carbonation. It finishes with some bitterness, like a grapefruit but less bitter.

Sip #2. I can't detect any mango flavor, but the beer has a sweetness.

Sip #3. I like the mild carbonation. It's just enough to give the beer a sensation, but eases off in an appreciation for the flavor. Unfortunately, my hands had a strong fragrance left from some hand soap and sometimes I smell the hand soap instead of the beer.

Smelling the beer, it's grassy and indicative of it being an IPA. 12:06 AM PT

Sip #4. The beer is not bitter anymore. It has a lovely taste. Actually, there is some subtle bitterness in the aftertaste. This beer is very light on the palate; there is no stickiness on the tongue. My current nasal congestion is about a BM, earlier at the 2nd or 3rd sip it was between a BM and BE. 12:10 AM PT

Sip #5. Sip #6 (and Last; I took a bigger gulp because it was the last sip). Overall, I enjoyed this beer. It was excellent on multiple levels. It was not too strong while still being flavorful. I rate it 4.6 out of 5 stars. 12:28 AM PT
