Some would say my sense of humor is poor, typically English, or just down right non-existent. But never let it be said that I don’t like a laugh. As such I started to stick one “joke beer” into each of a couple of Trades that I had with BigHuge.

Seems like he finally reciprocated, and got his own back tonight big time.

I just don’t know what to say here.

Thin.
Watery.
Orangey.

I kept thinking orange flavored Soda water. In fact, if there are any people familiar with Orange Tango, a soft drink made in the UK by Britvic, think of Orange Tango and you’re on the nail with this one.

It feels so right, it feels so fair,
The orange pulp went everywhere,
It’s in my toes and in my hair,
And I’m not wearing underwear.
So there.
….you know when you’ve been Tango’d.

So says the advert. Orange Tango was synonymous with crazy ass adverts in the UK, many of which got pulled, just like this product should.

I’ve been Tango’d tonight.

It’s gonna take me a while to top the lows of this one Huge!!!

Now I need a beer...

DATE: July 20, 2017... OCCASION: orange cream ale showdown, after sampling Czig Meister's own take... GLASSWARE: Howard's Pub pint... pours a pale gold body with active, steady bubbles that build a snow-white creaminess that drifts... sharp, pitched orange citrus, almost to an astringent quality... tough to detect other scents, besides ginger, honey, and apple... fizzy, mellow, sippable, but with a lingering malt effect... cream soda buzz combines with a zesty orange peel to dominate the profile... slightly sour, with strong orange and clementine, this is some dish water with a vibrant finish.... this just doesn't present as a beer, so I feel it difficult to rate this much higher than the parts themselves...

Pours a dark golden color with a foamy head that disappears quickly. Aroma is citrus and orange. Tastes of tangy oranges with a bit of sweetness from the honey.

Nice beer, better enjoyed in Summer than in February. Cloudy golden color, light head, subtle orange and honey notes, as you would expect, and you will be overcome by the sensation of Summer with every sip.
