Don't be fooled by the melting pop on the can, The OCB Crew worked hard to create a cream ale with orange peel and vanilla, putting proper emphasis and attention on the cream ale style.

Many thanks to Erzengel for sharing! A clear pale golden beer with a small most good lasting white head. Aroma of orange fruits, grapes. Taste of sweet pale malt, vanilla, orange fruits, low bitterness, interesting!

Orange fruity nose. The beer starts very fruity. Summer there with a smooth creamy texture. The orange is dry - orange oils on a dry grainy body. Not much bitterness, very easy to drink, light and sessionable. Very nice fruity cream ale. Soft orange and dry grain in the aftertaste. Mild and fruity.

Clear amber with minimal head. Tastes like orange creme. Kinda bizarre but not awful.

From the mixed 12 pack from hannaford. Slightly hazy deep gold color with a thin persisting tightly bubbled white head. Huge orange dominates the nose and the flavor. The first sip or two were fun but it got difficult to finish my glass. Too much wine cooler not enough beer.

Can pour into nonic pint glass from Manchester Wine and Liquors. Appearance is lightly hazy, pale yellow-orange with decent sparkle, ephemeral 1/2-finger width fizzy white head and no lacing. Aroma is cracker malts with light citrus. Taste is cracker, cardboard, hint of citrus. Palate is medium bodied with smooth, creamy texture, soft-to-average carbonation and dry, crisp finish. Overall, got the slightest amount of orange but never got any vanilla. Good palate and not harsh but also not much to recommend it.

$2.25 Can, Beer Run. Pours pale gold with a small white head. Aroma is orange, candied, and some sewage water. Flavor is candied orange, vanilla, cardboard,... tastes more like a Flintstones vitamin, especially with the aspirin aftertaste, than a creamsicle. Blah.

Pours clear gold into a shaker. Bright white with little retention recedes leaving spot lacing. Orange creamsicle aromas. Sweet vanilla upfront turning to mild citrus before the lasting bitter earth and marshmallow finish. Becomes cloying.
