The Brewers:
Brewmaster: Joe Valvo
Company: Trade Route Brewing Company
Location: 1091 Valentine Ave SE Pacific, Washington
The Beer:
Style: Weizen
ABV: 5%
Brewed with: Mango
Served: Bomber purchased at Halftime of Poughkeepsie
The Drink:
20 oz. Newcastle footed Pilsner (I think)
Beer pours bright, crystal clear amber with a thin head that dissipates quickly, leaving no lace.
Aroma of mangos/fruit and mild acidity; very champagne-like.
Beer starts with a high carbonation buzz and tartness. Middle is thin and fruity with a strong sour flavor. Finish is quick, sour and fruity, and there is a moderate build in mango sweetness.
Overall:
Not much to say about this beer, it's exactly as the label describes: mango weizen. Sour and fruity with a good carbonation, this is an extremely simple and refreshing beer. Another one that's perfect for a hot summer's day. Though the website for the brewery is no longer active, I haven't been able to find out if they've closed or not. If they are gone, pick this up where you can find it and enjoy it while it lasts.
