Pours a hazy orange color (but not NEIPA hazy) with a fluffy white head that provides a significant amount of splotchy lacing. I know that doesn’t sound good, but it looks very nice in the glass, IMHO.
The nose is all oranges - candied orange, pithy orange, and orange juice - plus a bit of sweet oat (maybe). If you don’t like oranges, I have a feeling the nose will scare you, because there’s a LOT of orange on the nose.
The taste is indeed an orange triumvirate of candied orange (sweetness), pithy orange (a bit of bitterness), orange juice (breakfast), but there’s enough oat flavor to provide the requisite balance I’m looking for, especially as the beer warms a bit.
The mouthfeel is medium and soft, so it does lean to the NEIPA side of hoppy beers. I was worried on the nose this would be a bit cloying with all the orange, but my fears were unfounded - this is a beer I’d gladly try again.

16oz can served in a biggish tumbler. No date on the can. Bought it at the downtown location last night.
Pours a murky whitish-orange with a small head. Moderate carbonation. Smell is juicy, orange julius, and orange pith.
Taste is definitely strong on the citrus juice, but also has some rind bitterness. Lacking something, gives it a hollow, almost watery sense.
Similarly, mouthfeel is light, smooth, a bit too thin. Overall, it's not bad.
