This was a special variant offered on cask at the Tavern on Liberty in Allentown, PA for Lehigh Valley beer Week 2016.

The bartender said that it tasted like an orange creamsicle and it actually lived up to the billing. The nose only mildly suggested creamsicle but the flavor was full blown.

Most important, it worked! It did NOT taste fake and the flavors merged well with the hoppiness which was wisely kept at a relatively low-level.

The smoothness brought by the casking also helped a great deal. I'm not sure if this would have worked as well with a standard tapping.
