Thanks to russpowell for this gem.
I am rating this on what the brewers were going for, A DIPA take on an orange creamsicle.
Very fluffy head on top of a murky swirl. Good retention, clumpy lacing.
Nose explodes with creamy citrus zest. Orange, tangerine, and a dose of vanilla cream.
Flavor follow the nose. Fully committed to concept. Creamy and sweet with a lush, pulpy whipped orange flavor.
Mouthfeel is medium heft, creamy and fluffy.
Overall this is killer. Could I drink it daily? Probably not. But definitely nailed it.

2.92/5  rDev -22.1%
look: 2.75 | smell: 2.5 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3
Appearance:
Murky/opaque unripened orange. No real head. Plenty of lacing.

Aroma:
Fresh. Milk sugar. Tropical fruit.

Taste:
The orange icing on pillsbury orange rolls. White sugar sweet but not cloying. Fermented orange juice. Ripe Guava. Metallic.

Mouthfeel:
Smooth. Mildly viscous.

Overall:
Boozy. Meh. It’s too disjointed. The flavor is too much like fermented orange juice. A nice smoothness makes it easy to drink even though it’s a sipper. If it were a little creamier or just didn’t have that metallic/fermented oj flavor, it’d be tops. Just can’t get past the flavor.

Pours a very hazed gold/honey with one finger of cream-colored head. Some head retention & lacing

S: Orange Creamsicle in your face, holds up through the pour

T: Follows the nose, there is a slight sour component as well, a kiss of lime up front. More of the same as this beer warms up, some dryness & a touch of pineapple. Finishes a little dry with slightly tart/sour creamsicle & just a little acidity

MF: Medium body, creamy carbonation, lovely balance

This is in my wheelhouse, I do like these kinds of offerings a little sweeter, but this drinks just fine
