Mike's Harder Mango Punch:
Hello one and all! Greetings and salutations to all those faithful readers who have stuck around with my lack of good judgment this month. As previously stated, this month is turning into a punishment of taste so I decided weekends are going to be fun, I have to have something to look forward too. So lets start with a different variation on something already on the market. Mike’s Hard Lemonade has been around since the early 90’s and is marketed to…well, hell if I know, they seem to change target market every few years. Anyway, Mike’s decided that the spiked lemonade market wasn’t enough and decided to up the bounty with Mike’s Harder Punch. Sporting a higher ABV than normal Mike’s (7 vs. 8) this beverage carries that lethal combo of sweet and high alcohol that can’t be noticed. Today’s flavor is mango, a neon orange concoction that tastes like something you’d make for a party in college. It pours ok with little foam to speak of though it is highly carbonated, almost to the champagne level. The flavors of mango and pineapple push their way through the sweetness. Not my cup of tea as far as beverages go but for those who have a sweet tooth and love cheesy titles on their can, this one is for you.
