Appearance: Dispenses a foggy, yellow-orange body with an ultra thin, very short-lived, white head.
Smell: Tangerine citrus, yes. Also, what I would absolutely swear was clear-cut pink guava (two others guessed the same), but, hey, you're the folks opening the Oregon Fruit boxes, not me. Edge of vanilla cream atop the typical rustic raw wheat and/or oat slurry and basic barley.
Taste: Sweet, somewhat sugary as well as tropical, juicy and fruity. Minimally bitter. Flavorwise, it's like a vanilla Tootsie Roll and Starburst candy mashup. Creamy finish.
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Overall: It's okay albeit not for me. Seems they're going the creamsicle route, here, whereas, given its vibrancy and tropical fruitiness, I'd have preferred something drier and having a more refreshing vibrancy on the carbonation.
