On-tap at The Big Cheese
A: Pours a very pale yellow color with a bit of white head sitting on top.
S: This beer lives up to its name with plenty of orange smell. Orange peel and fresh orange juice are mostly what I get out of this. Almost no malt aroma whatsoever.
T: Pretty much the same thing on the tongue. Semi sweet orange flesh and juice with the bitterness of orange peels. Fairly green as well, maybe a bit of grass flavor in there.
M: Light in body with a moderate to high carbonation.
O: Interesting beer. It doesn't taste bad, but the orange flavor is intense to the point where it can become a bit bothersome.

On tap at Big Cheese in Yucaipa...
A - Poures a very light amber with a one finger off white head. Lacing is pretty much nonexistent, and head dissipates at agood pace...
S - Just getting over a cold. so my sense of smell is a little out of whack; however, I do detect citrus notes, and a hint of fruity hops...
T - Lot's of citrus fruits come through, mostly oranges, which ends on a more bitter hoppy note. Maybe cascades...
M - Nothing creamy about this one. A definite light bodied with a good amount of carbonation...
D - Probably won't be trying this one again unless I am in a real pinch, and I am stuck between this and a macro. Overall, a little to fruity for my liking...
Cheers...

On tap at The Big Cheese after a trip to More Beer in Riverside on 7/2/2010.
Pours a clear yellow color with some white head that doesnt last long but leaves faint hints of lacing in the glass.
Aroma is slightly citrusy and sour with some hints of malt and booze.
Flavor is moderately bitter and a hint sour. It also has some orangey flavors along with a sweetness. Fairly clean but the sourness is very distracting. I hope its just from some kind of citrus addition and not an infection, that would be a shame.
Light body and I guess I could put down the glass if I needed to.
