Matso's Mango Beer Bottle 330ml

“Tropical mango beer with ripe fruit, gentle sweetness and a clean dry finish.”

Matso's Mango Beer is one of those beers that does exactly what the label promises. Real Australian mango gives it ripe tropical fruit character, while the beer underneath keeps things fresh, balanced and easy to drink.

There is plenty of mango on the nose, followed by soft malt, light citrus and just enough sweetness through the palate. The finish turns drier and cleaner than you might expect, which stops it from becoming overly sugary or heavy. It is also unfiltered, so a little natural sediment in the bottle is completely normal.

This is the sort of beer that makes considerably more sense in warm weather than discussing hop varieties ever will. Cold bottle, hot afternoon, job done.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Ripe mango with light citrus and soft malt.

Palate: Juicy tropical fruit with gentle sweetness, smooth malt and very mild bitterness.

Finish: Clean and relatively dry with lingering mango and citrus freshness.

About The Brewery

Matso's Mango Beer comes from Matso's Broome Brewery in Western Australia and has become one of the brewery's best known releases.

The style takes inspiration from a Belgian blonde beer with a fruit driven twist, using real Australian mango to bring plenty of aroma and flavour while keeping the beer refreshing rather than syrupy.

There are more complicated beers in the world. None of them are going to taste more like drinking a mango in Broome.

Serving Suggestions

Serve well chilled with grilled chicken, fresh salads, seafood or lightly spiced dishes.

It also works surprisingly well with chocolate, where the mango sweetness and dry finish create a nice contrast.
