This beer came an orange amber color that was slightly foggy. The head was a creamy slightly off white that left some nice lace.

Smelled of crisp oranges and pine with a slight caramel and apricot sweetness lingering in the background.

The base of the flavor is a gritty oat-like malt with big orange rind and earthy pines riding on top. Finishes a lot cleaner than expected with gentle lingering pines.

The mouth feel is light bodied and creamy with a fine carbonation.

The orange character of this beer was really delightful and a nice change of pace.
