I liked it. Downed it in like 5 mins. A beer with soulless vibez ..but nice flava. You don’t ponder about a beer like this. The dry palate and spicy tart vibes hit the spot on a hot evernings drinking.

Pours a very hazy orange with a white head. Has a nice citrus taste and goes down smooth. It is definitely a good beer, and for the price it’s hard to beat.

Bottle - Pours cloudy orange with a low white head that disappears fast. I have had it on tap before, and I can say I think it’s better than bottled. It is very easy to drink, has hints of orange and other spices. Very little lacing when my glass is empty. A nice beer if you enjoy light beers, but has much more taste.

Cloudy pour, aroma and flavor of rain with spice and citrus. A solid brew and great with a slice of orange on a hot day.

This is a very good beer off of a tap - crisp, refreshing, and very good tasting. Pours with a hazy orange hue, with a small white head that is mostly diminshing. Spicy flavor with some citrus in the taste. Really good beer to sip while watching a game!

Orange-y taste with enough crispness to make it refreshing. It is a little muddy, but not bad.

Bottle, from Sainsburys, Lincoln. Hazy orange gold, thin short lived white headand low condition. Citrus sweet nose with a suggestion of clove spiciness, soft and dry in the mouth with a thin spiciness and slight lemony citrus note, short muted finish with a slight chalky yeast note and low coriander spiciness.

Bottle. Gives the impression that it comes from a micro when its really from those nice suits at Coors. Slightly cloudy and a bit creamy. Some spiciness.Not what I had expected in more ways than one.
