Bottle. Very, very small white head that quickly dissipated, no lacing, visible fast rising carbonation, transparent, and a gold hue. Nose was somewhat stinky, oranges, honey and sweet. Flavor was sweet, oranges, honey, dry and sticky tasting. Tingly and dry mouthfeel. Light body. Just so-so. Nothing to get overly excited about. Not one to seek out again. Rather boring and pretty much one dimensional.

Bottle from Total Wine. Pours a golden like color with a light head. Light honey aroma. Tastes like a Miller Lite with a touch of orange and honey to it. An average beer at best.

Draft. Pours out a smooth viscous, hazy orange with minimal white head. Aroma is pleasant, noble hops, honey and caramel, bready yeasts and graham crackers. Taste is mostly light honey with little sweetness and a clean hop finish. This beer is far better on draft than from a bottle, but I suspect the bottling issues will be resolved shortly. Very easy drinking, light and refreshing. While this isn’t a style of beer I prefer I think this one is on the mark, good job Tom. Now that this will be brewed at Thomas Creek who has excellent water quality, this should improve further, and arrive back in Florida fresher.

Definite honeyed herbal hop aroma. Clear gold color. Clean and bready with a fair bitter finish. Medium palate.

Light orange in color with thin white head. Classic pils aroma with a hint of sweetness to it. Palate thin. Sweetness was mild up front and the taste ended with a crisp finish. Decent, but perhaps a bit bland.

Kinda stinky -honey and crackers. Orangey, clear. bad clipart label. Biscuity, floral, light bittering. Clean and not cloying. Graham-y, lightly sweet finish. Not bad, not my cup of tea.

An orange beer with no head. The aroma is sweet with light notes of yeast, while the flavor is sweet with stronger notes of yeast, combined with light notes of yeast.

Thanks to SecretSanta Degarth for sending this my way. Clear gold body with a thin white head. Honey aroma, very similar to a mead. Taste is a bit sharp, honey with very little orange. Slightly bitter ending.
