This recipe sounded interesting so I did my own take on it since I'm a new homebrewer. I used Northern Brewer's American Wheat beer for the base and used 1 Habenero in the boil.
SG was 1.041
2 weeks primary ferm then racked to the secondary with 8 fresh mango cut up.
after 7 days I started to add another pound of store bought frozen mango chunks (thawed out first) every 2 days then I added one habanero cut up for the last 2 days. Total secondary was 2 weeks.
Final SG was 1.05 for a ABV=4.6%
I bottled it and after one week I tasted it yesterday.
Very good mango flavor with a habanero finish, minor heat . My only disappointment was that it doesn't have very good head? Maybe due to the fresh fruit?
