The appearance is golden with a slight haze. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is average. Overall it’s better than OK but not great. carruthm (1167), Seattle, Washington, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 9, 2008 I think my girlfriend picked this one up in Cincy, but if someone sent this to me, I apologize for forgetting! This one sounded really good, by "Orange Blossom Cream Ale" I expected something along the lines of an orange creamsicle, or those orange creamsavers that are so delicious. Instead, I got something that kind of tasted like creamy orange juice. This one pours odd, out of all the beers that I see that pour orange, the damn orange beer pours an almost lagerish yellow! Should have known something was up right there. Lots of clove in the aroma, and orange peel in the flavor. Some notes of honey and ash (??). Lots of grass and wheat. This one is fairly thin, so it doesn’t clog up the palate like I was afraid. Not the best beer I’ve ever had by far, but deserving of a higher ranking than 17 percentile.

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Jul 8, 2008 Bottle from Kegs & Barrels, McKinney, TX. Pours a clear gold with fizzy white head. Has a strong orange aroma. Flavor has strong fresh orange with faint hints of malt......Over all, a very refreshing summer beer. jaymobrown (1360), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jul 6, 2008 Tasted like orange pop. Really light color -- a slight orange, pale straw mix. Had a decent orange nose, and a sweet addition. Not too bad in the aroma. Taste followed up with a cream and orange flavor. Really like a soda fountain style drink. Not as bad as some fruit beers. Not very bold and a bit thin. For a one off it wasn’t bad, but I don’t think I’d pick up a six pack anytime soon. ericandersnavy (1135), crossroads, Texas, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jul 5, 2008 bottle thanks to swalden_28. poured a light yellow with white head. aroma was orange and freakishly close to a wine cooler. flavor of course was orange and a bit on the watery side. sebletitje (1978), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 1/5 | 9/20 | Jul 4, 2008 First thing that came to mind, this is a Fanta with alcohol. Pours clear golden. Nose is pleasant, mix of honey and orange, really refreshing.
Aroma is orange at best, very sweet and floral.
I want to love this beer, it’s different, but has too much of this soda flavor. It manages to capture the orange without making it taste too "beery", that’s where the hiccup is for me.
The orange floral extract is noticeable.
The mouthfeel is indeed creamy and fizzy.

Some grain and cereal aroma but mostly smells like orange soda. Light body very carbonated. Interesting almost peppery spice and orange flavors. Finish is somewhat bitter.
