Bottle: Hazy, orange-gold with a small, off-white head. Orange-peel, grain, grapefruit scent. Taste is slightly overripe orange and orange-peel. Slightly bready....really dry. Not nearly as sweet as I expected. Ok, but I really was prepared for a more juicy orange flavour. More IPA than fruit beer.

Draft pour at dinner at Founding Farmers in Tysons. Poured a very bright orange color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was a solid amount of floral citrus. Lots of orange peel, zest, orange juice.

Clear golden body with an orange tint and a very small tan head. Aroma of bright grassy hops along with a little grain and metal along with a faint hint of orange. Medium-bodied; Strong grassy flavour at first with some subtle herbal hops and a touch of perfume, but not much orange at all. Aftertaste shows some grass, light malt, cereal and a very small amount of citrus. Overall, a decent APA with an orange kick and a touch of grass. Not too special here, and not showing much complexity or depth. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Total Wine in Alexandria, Virginia on 17-May-2015 for US$2,22 sampled at home in Washington on 10-November-2015.
