Sample at the Heartland Chophouse: Straw-colored and clear with tiny bubbles and a thin white head that leaves quickly. Nil lacing. Aroma of citrus and coriander. Rather thin body, with zesty orange flavor and some spice and malt. The flavors dont intermingle very well though. The finish is spicy and lightly bitter, but watery. All in all below average.

Taken at the ESB location on 18th Jan 2013: God it was cold outside!
Inside it was warm and welcoming.
The beer is pale yellow, almost golden, the bright winter sun giving it a true shine as it burst through the window. A white, thin head sat on top.
Citrus lead in the nose and taste: more grapefruit and lemon than orange.
Body wise it was OK, could have done with a bit more depth maybe.
My first beer in New York (they got better).

On-tap at Heartland Brewery and Chophouse (Times Square), New York, NY
A: The beer is clear yellow in color but has no visible carbonation. It poured with a quarter finger high white head that died down, leaving delicate lacing on the surface and a collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Light aromas of floral hops and oranges are present in the nose.
T: The taste is slightly sweet and seems to resemble orange blossom honey a bit, but the flavors dissipate rather quickly.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer isn't that difficult to drink but doesn't seem to really fit its style and could use a little flavoring and bitterness from the hops in the taste.
