Tap. A clear orange/yellow with a quickly fleeting head. the aroma has a hint of citrus. Very light beer that was not sweet? and tasted more like an American lager. It may not have been a bad beer but the name prepares your mouth for a flavor it’s not going to get. My mouth got mad at my eyes on this one.

12oz bottle, courtesy of artusory. Thanks, Ryan! Pours a pale, golden-orange color; thin, off-white head with medium-bubbled lacing. Sweet sugar and honey in the aroma; innocuous and somewhat watery. Medium mouthfeel: slight viscosity from the honey / sugariness; really not a ton here; a touch of mineral bitterness over an orange-tinged sugar core. Quick finish of sugar and toasted malts.

Bottle from Beerlando and served in standard pint glass: Clean golden hue with a mostly lasting frothy head and okay lace. The aroma has notes of honey, wet grains and band-aid, hint of grassy and herbal vapours and a fruity vapour but NOT orange. The taste has minor citric and herbal nature over a layer of pils and biscuity malt with just a touch of honey. A note of lingering medicinal flavor on the aftertaste. The mouth feel is sprite and effervescent. Ho Hum beer that I would have like to see with either more pilsner character or more orange zest fruit beer nature.

Clear orange in color with a citrus papaya aroma, and a bit of grass. Sharp lemony taste, and high carbonation.

This is a golden unfiltered product topped off with just a little white head. It is pretty fowl smelling, almost like a musty fart with a little sweetness. It has a bit of sweetness to it, but not like fruit, it is more like just a bit of sweet malt. $1.49 12 oz bottle at Total Wine, Naples, FL.

Bottle (Thanks Quake1028). Pours a golden/orange color with a tiny bit of head. Aroma is corn, grain, some yeast and a little honey sweetness. Flavor is grain, yeast, some grassy notes. Slightly tart and somewhat odd. Very light-bodied. I am glad I tried, but will not be looking for more bottles.

12oz bottle from SoLan. Aroma of Aquanet hairspray, grain, and some sort of sugar sweetness... not so much honey though. Pale gold/orange with a thin white head. Dry, crisp grassy hops with some sweet orange peel and candy sweetness. Thin and slightly watery on the tongue. You down with OBP? Yeah you know me!
