Appearance: Pours a clear, medium to light orange color with a soft, off-white, cream colored head. SRM of 8. (3.75)
Aroma: Moderate aromas of pure orange juice. Pure orange and pulp. No cream. No pine. All orange juice, orange peel, zest. (3.75)
Flavor: The flavor follows with more orange juice flavors, but has slight notes of pineapple and grapefruit to support. Some creamsicle, but mostly fruit. Dryish. Still, tons of orange juice here though. (3.50)
Feel: Medium-bodied. Moderate carbonation. Has enough to finish clean, but not overpowering though. Hides the alcohol well. Balanced. (4.00)
Compared to Sierra Nevada's Pale Ale 2/4/21: Pours a lighter color. More orange juice on the aroma. Less caramel, earthy resin, pine, soap. Probably somewhat similar in terms of bitterness, but this is orange bitterness whereas SN is pine bitterness.
Overall: Probably the closest beer to pure orange juice I have ever had. Sure, I've had beers that have more orange, or more juicy/fruity. But this beer is hardly distinguishable from orange juice. Hides the alcohol well too. Nice creamsicle, but dry. You could probably make a mixed drink with orange juice and get the same result here. Nothing too special, but it sure does taste like orange juice. (Final Rating: 3.63)

Can drank at Old Chicago. No dating.
Pours a lightly hazed straw gold, nice head of foam retention.
Big notes of orange in the smell, citrus yeah, earthy malt? Hard to describe the malt presence.
Taste is orange zest, light grapefruit, toasted malt, very little sweetness to this. Bitterness level is pretty high but not overdone.
Good mouthfeel. I prefer beers with blood oranges but this is good.
