Aroma is caramel, roasty malts and hazelnut. Taste is sweet malts followed by some sweet citrus and orange notes that dissipate fairly quickly. finishes with a fairly bland bitterness. Appearance is a clear gold/orange body with a thin pearl head that retains fairly well.

Still had some Winter Mixer packs left at The Beer Store. This was in it. Pours a clear rich honey amber colour with a creamy light-beige head, good retention and lacing, creamy again and wavy. Aromas of cereal grain, light sweetness from the citrus all balanced out with some grassy hops. Tastes like an amber as well, with none of the mandarin and oranges taking much place. If none at all. Seems like a decent regular amber ale as you do not taste the "pure orange oil" as listed in the ingredients. OK, maybe slightly in the aftertaste, after breathing a while.

341 ml bottle. Clear amber colour with small short lived off white head. Sour aroma with orange dominating and a bit of malt. Flavour is slightly sweet, mandarin orange, grainy malt with a mildly bitter, citrus peel finish.

Clear dark orange pour. Some soapy head. Aroma of honey tangerine & wheat. Well balanced erring toward bitter which is really good for a fruit beer. All just two notes though: wheat and zest. Also seems sorta weird to have amber background to the fruit. It works well enough.

Pours a clear amber as then are would suggest, and a small white spotty head. Aroma is malty sweetness, cereal, and sweet orange. Flavour is mild bitterness, malty sweetness and orange rinds. Easy drinking and not a bad idea but definitely more of a beer I may have been into when I first got into craft beer.

Im not usually into "flavored" beers but this stuff was alright. The "orange" flavoring isnt overbearing. An easy beer to drink.

Deep amber colour, mid strength ale with just a hint of orange. Pleasant taste and pallet. 5%

Overall this beer was better than I expected. Tasted more malty than I expected and very faint on the orange flavor. Easy to drink as well.

341ml bottle pours a pale amber color with a finger of white head that leaves virtually no lacing on the glass. Aroma is mandarin oranges with some cereal grains and not much else. Taste is mandarin oranges with some orange rind bitterness and grainy malt sweetness and very little hop bitterness. Light bodied with decent carbonation leaving a little tingle on the palate. A decent fruit beer but nothing special.

This was not bad. Distinct orange aroma and taste, unlike a lot of the really bland fruit beers, this one actually had flavour. I wouldnt have this one a lot but if I had to have a fruit beer, this one is not bad.
