Oompa Loompa Mango Pale Ale

So, you may remember that the Beer Model and I brewed a beer together in November of 2017: Where'd My ManGo Wheat. The beer turned out fantastic. Obviously the Beer Model is a fantastic brewer. 

When we brewed Where'd My ManGo Wheat, I only used about half the mango extract, and I thought I'd use it up in an IPA. 

After thinking about it some more I decided I did not want an IPA. I wanted a Pale Ale.

So, I came up with a recipe for a pale ale that would take the final Mango Flavoring that I had bought for Where'd My ManGo Wheat.

I decided to try Eukanot (aka Equinox aka HBC 366 hops) because I think I've read that it tastes tropical with some mango flavors. I was also going to use Mosaic hops, but my last batch using Mosaic tasted a little off. After I had another Mosaic Pale Ale at a local brew pub, I decided that the off-flavor might have been Mosaic hops rather than some sort of infection.

So, I dropped Mosaic from this batch of beer. I replaced it with Centennial, which is a tried and true hop in several of my hoppy recipes.
