The soft mineral, lightly grassy notes of Chinese sencha, along with its gentle astringent bite top off the fruity mango character and the core lager attributes.

0.5 Tbsp Aseptic Fruit Puree mango puree

COMMENT

The mild astringency and herbaceousness of the sencha is key to defining the sequential layers of the grainy/hoppy lager and the sweet/sour fruitiness of the mango.
