16 ounce can
Served in an oversized, stemless, wine glass

This beer pours an orangish yellow color and is topped with almost and endless mountain of beige head that, when it finally recedes, leaves great lacing.

Citrus and tropical fruit notes.

Mostly citrus flavor. Grapefruit seems to stand out. Mild bitterness

Full bodied with a creamy mouthfeel

Good even though it is old. I missed the canned-on date when I picked it up.

On draft at Big Lake. Poured a clear, golden orange color with a small, white head of foam. It left sudsy trails of lace on the glass. It smelled of toasted caramel, toffee, orange and grapefruit. Nice orange, grapefruit and other tropical fruit taste with toasted caramel and a sharp bitterness.

A - Opaque coper orange with two fingers of creamy head that reduces to an oily pancake batter.

S - Layers of citrus, centennial, piney, dank, rind.

T - A combine load of hops, but not bitter up front, tropical fruits, malts, wheat and grain. Finish is creamy and smooth.

O - Another nice offering from Big Lake. This doesn't blow your T's off, but very solid.
