Thanks to Tom for this one. Clear golden body, a light white head. Aroma is very sweet and buttery. Flavor is sweet, lots of fruit, mostly strawberry. Not enjoyable.

22oz bottle, courtesy of CaptainCougar. Thanks, Tom! Pours a clear, bright golden-orange color; small white head with fine-bubbled lacing. Touch of butteriness in the aroma; some light citrus and oranges, but the buttery popcorn notes overshadow this. Medium mouthfeel: again, plenty of buttery notes, overshadowing a crisp, lightly fruity malt core; not overly diacetyl laden, but definitely present. Medium finish: toasty malts, light sugar, and some fruitiness.

This beer pours with a golden body topped by a thick creamy head with lots of lacing. The aroma is sweet and orangey with slight spicy notes and a touch of honey. The flavor is sweet with notes of honey and orange with a slight hoppiness. Light to medium bodied, smooth and dry.very drinkable.good beer.

Thanks ogglethorp: Aroma of musty, canned mandarin oranges. Flavor is a little watery for the ABV, tastes of sweet citrus, yeasty, and a spice I can’t put my finger on. Not a fan of this one.

Bottle. Pours a clear amber with a bubbly white head that dissipates quickly. Strong aroma of citrus fruit and hops, with a bit of spices. Taste is hoppy, with oranges, some spices and a lot of yeast notes. Lingering bread flavors. Tasty and drinkable.

On tap at the brewery. Some sweetness with s bit of orange rind, that gave it a tartness. Nice balance. Easy to drink. Nice brew.
