16oz canned 05/05/23 poured into a Spiegelau IPA glass at fridge temp 7.2% ABV. The beer pours opaque light amber with cream colored head. The head recedes to a thin cap and leaves plenty of lacing. The aroma is moderate in strength featuring sweet orange almost exclusively. The taste is sweet, orange candy over minimal malt. No bitterness to speak of and lingering sticky diet orange soda. The mouthfeel is medium plus bodied with average carbonation and a totally undry finish. Overall, gross. I will take one for the team, because if I lived someplace where these were common, I'd want a separate name other than IPA, so that I'd never buy something like this by mistake.

16 FL OZ can
Served in an oversized, wine glass

This beer pours amber and hazy. It is topped with a couple inches of tan head that leaves decent lacing.

I get orange aroma and medicinal. I was expecting some vanilla.

Mild orange flavor. I get some underlying citrus notes.

Medium bodied with a pillowy mouthfeel

I was hoping for an orange cream flavor. It was not bad. Just not as good as I had hoped.
