Odell Brewing Mango Tree Shaker
What the brewers say
"Ripe, tropical mango and bright, citrusy hops combine to shake the senses."
What our panel thought
"Fruit aroma dominates: ripe banana, mango, guava, papaya—tropical smoothie vibes. Fruit dominates flavor, too—pineapple, papaya, banana. Low bitterness rolls into a pithy kind of banana-peel harshness but doesn’t linger. Light floral alcohol character. Interesting fruity stuff, but is it an IPA?"
What our editors thought
"Intensely fruity nose eschews balance for bold tropical expression. Sip barely reels in the fruit with a touch of malt and whisper of bitterness. Sacrifices IPA bitterness for a fruit-forward sweet bomb."
