Haven't typed out a review in a while, but as this beer is my first 5 Overall, a few words:
As soon as you get it open (I was lucky to try it out of a can) the smell of orange/citrus are pungent throughout the room. In the glass it goes, gorgeous orange color with a frothy white head that fades with time. The taste of this beer follows the nose 100%--its a tropical fruit explosion. One of my favorite parts was the mouthfeel--I wish I could give it a 6. Creamy, perfect amount of carbonation.
This beer is perfection. Trade for this/go to Tree House, just get some. I promise you won't regret it

Poured from the can into a taster glass.
Light off white top of three fingers, a light retention with nice lacing. Pale orange body, with an opaque but light hinting appearance.
Chewy aroma of impeccable Creamsicle hop orange flavor. Slight popsicle sweetness, touching vanilla, very impressive. Slight malt biscuit cookie it seems also. Something out of a crafted dessert but total beer richness. Stunning.
Delicious palate. Creamy and somehow with a malt dryness that hits with excellent hop character. Creamed flour it seems, citrus orange and fluffy like in texture and taste. Dare I even say touches of marshmallow and sweet exotic marmalade. Not a hint of boozy heat either.
Very impressive and stupidly enjoyable. True winner.

Julius came my way thanks to DoctorZombies
Incredibly well crafted, from the foam, its appearance or the tasty, not overly juicy aromas and flavors.
More than a winner overall, this beer is worth it.

Poured from a can into a teku glass
Appearance – The beer pours a very hazy orange color with a big puffy head of off-white foam. THE head has a great level of retention, fading very slowly over time and leaving tons of streaky lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell -The aroma is big of a musty grainy and bready smell mixed with lots of raw hop aromas of a herbal and earthy nature. There are other citrus aromas of orange and tangerine as well as hints of grapefruit mixed within. Notes of apricot and some grass are in there as well, giving a rather raw and sorta green smell to the brew overall.
Taste – The taste starts out drier than one would anticipate from the nose. It begins with a mix of bready and cracker malt flavors combined with hop flavors of a very potent herbal and grapefruit hop. Notes of a floral and pine hop flavor are there as well, but these tastes are light in comparison to the herbal hop. All the hop flavors are rather “raw” in nature, having an almost hop pellet like flavor associated with them. These potent flavors are the dominant ones throughout much of the taste. While said, there is a decent showing of fruit flavors of tangerine, peach, and apricot, as well as a hint of mango. The mix of sweet, bready and hop take the taste to its end, where it leaves one with a rather green hopped and slightly fruity and malty taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body is a bit more on the creamy and chewy side with a carbonation level that is on the more moderate side. For the rich hop and malt flavors the feel is well done and makes for a nice easy sipper.
Overall – A very nice brew overall. I think I like this better than the King Julius as it is more approachable from my standpoint, but hits all the same high notes as the king variety. Big and flavor and drinkability with a nice blend of hop, malt, and fruit.
