Pours a golden orange with a small head. Smell is similar to a citrus lemonade. Taste is the same. Mouthfeel is light and easy to drink. Overall, it’s orange flavored lemonade, what you’d expect from a shandy. Good for summer.

Based on a review from October 2013. Had this in a bottle.
A: pours a hazy, orange body with a small white head with little retention or lacing
S: sweet, orange smell; pretty sweet smelling beer, like an orange juice Popsicle
T: sweet, orange juice tasting beer; sweet, slightly watered down aftertaste
M: light bodied mad fairly crisp; fairly refreshing
D: nice mouthfeel and taste combo; pretty good warm weather drinking beer

12 ounce bottle. Pours a somewhat cloudy golden orange with a decent white head. Aroma of orange. Taste is orange, sweet orange, citrus, and malt. Very sweet in my opinion. Needs ice cubes.

Imagine Fanta with beer aftertaste. That's exactly how this one feels. It's not bad at all on a hot summer day, but I generally prefer something more reserved.

Whoa. Does this one have some sweetness to it. I do usually like the Shandy category of beer, this one makes it sweet and almost to a point where it does not taste like beer, it kind of tastes like a bite into a Orange, this is sweet but it does have some beer flavoring to it. My second favorite one of the shandy category!

Pours a hazy sunset golden color. Smell was tropical oranges. Taste was very citrus with oranges and tangerine. Mouth feel soft but had an artificial fruit finish. In the summer at a cookout this brew is not bad.

Cloudy gold color with a foamy white head of about finger tallness. Head goes away quickly but leaves some lacing on the glass.
Smell is sweet malty tangerine and orange.Seems like a bit of lemon on the smell as well. Very pleasent aroma!
Taste is heavy on the malts with the orange citrus coming in as a second flavor.
Mouth is a bit chewy with a lot of melt presence. The finish however is fairly crisp and breaks off nicely.
If you take a sniff as you take a sip the smell helps your palate in following the flavor. This can only be be done with the appropriate glass. You really need to get the aroma with the sip. This really brings out that tangerine, orange flavor. Definitely gauranteed orange flavored burps as well thanks to the carbonation. Overall I like this shandy but would rather stick with the lemon shandy for my hot vegas days/nights.
