Indian Wells Orange Blossom Amber

Brewed by Indian Wells Brewing
Style: Fruit Beer
Inyokern, California USA

A good fruit beer, but slightly too sweet for me. Aroma very strong with orange, flavor has mild bitterness with tart notes and a sweet aftertaste. The first half of the beer is great, but after that it starts too get a little too sweet and powerful. Flavor intensifies as it warms. Overall not bad, but not great.

This smelt like a lemon Alka-Seltzer. I hate lemons. Worse, though, it tasted like an Orange-flavored Airborne. We split this between three and poured out almost all of it. Just a terrible beer. Quite a disappoint after the good surprises in the bock and the gold.

If I wanted orange soda I would buy fanta. This is not made with fresh orange peels, but orange soda extract. If you are a chick or a gay ass dude who likes fruit in their beer, than this is the beer for you. If not, just drink fruit soda. You could mix fanta with vodka and it would taste the same and get you more fucked up than this offering. Holla at yo boy!

Draft at Bakersifelds Brews in The Village; Nose of orange and citrus; orange copper color with a small white head; flavor was orange peel (not too sweet) with some citrus hops.

Really decent. Beers that don’t taste like a traditional beer get bad ratings, but this is kinda neat. Smelled exactly like orange soda, and tasted like a watery orange soda and not as sweet.
