Ok, so this one pours a bright, almost neon like orange color. It is opaque, and when held to the light it almost glows. There is a fizzy, soda like collection of bubbles that appears when the beer is poured, but other than that momentary fizz, there is absolutely no head on this beer.

The aroma on this is weird. On one hand you have the orange tang aroma - this sugary, somewhat artificial orange aroma. But on the other hand, its got cinnamon, vanilla, graham cracker, and a little sour cream like note to it. They do not necessarily blend all that well together.

Taste somewhat follows the nose with that bright orange flavor coming through. It is sweet and reminds me of Fanta or Tang. But again, we've got these cinnamon, graham cracker, and vanilla notes all within this sour orange framework. Its wacky, but weirdly, it sort of works.

Feel is lively, prickly, again - soda like with its carbonation. Light body on this one. The sour only mildly registers on the palate, just enough to give the impression of a sour note.

Overall this is about as wacky a beer as I expected from the start. Really interesting to drink, but its not something I'd pick up again.
