From tap at BeerTemple, Amsterdam. Aroma of malt, biscuit, ripe orange, caramel. Flavour is light to moderate sweet with a moderate to medium bitter finish. More malty and less fruity than I had hoped.

Can at Imazato, 650 yen. Golden Amber in color with a thick beige head. The aroma is minty citrus while the medium body gives a lightly bitter woodsy flavor with orange coming in with the malt sweetness.

Can from the Sampler: pours light amber with a white head. Aroma is oranges, other citrus, malts. Taste is somewhat hoppy and orangeish up front. Significantly maltier than I expected. Not really my thing.

Draft at Beer Temple. Pours slight hazy amber with a big off white head. Aroma of orange, kind of soft like those slightly fake orange juice drinks, with citrus and light malt. Flavour is light to moderate sweet and moderate bitter. Light to light medium bodied with a watery juice drink palate and soft carbonation.

Draft @ beertemple. Aroma of strong orange zest and citrus. Taste of fresh orange, citrus, mild caramel and some fresh fruits. Nice hoppy orange juice. I don’t get the low ratings.

Tap. Orange color, lace. Light citrus nose with biscuity malt. A bit milder in the orange hops than I expected, though they come through a bit. Somewhat sweet, biscuity. Ok.

On Tap at Rogue Ales Public House - Astoria Pours out a hazy orange topped off white head. A lot of citrus on this one also hops. Not bad.
