One of DRAFT Magazines Top 25 New Beers of 2016 - OVB is childhood memories in a glass this silky IPA is conditioned atop orange zest & Madagascar vanilla beans before an intense hopping of Citra and Cascade. Sweet vanilla and orange aromatics with a fluffy mouthfeel and enough bitterness to remind you its an IPA first.

10/6/2019. Can, sample, courtesy of danlo, cheers Ed! Pours thick murky pale dull orange brown with no head. Aroma of oranges, vanilla ice cream, passion fruit, chocolate lime sweets (which I used to love as a kid) and a hint of cola. Moderate sweetness, with fruity bitterness developing more in the finish. Thick texture, sticky texture, soft to flat carbonation. Thoroughly enjoyable drinking experience!

473ml can from Hop Burns & Black. Murky orange colour, white foamy head leaving lacing and aroma of zesty tropical fruits, passionfruit, peachy. Taste is sweet, malt caramel, ice cream, vanilla, alittle biscuit, with tropical & stone fruit flavours, lemon-lime citrus, zesty, orange with some piney, hop resin bitterness. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, dry zesty citrus ice-creamy finish. Quite drinkable.

Can. Very hazy orange beer, small cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine minerally carbonation. Wow! Pretty much a spot on orange ice cream ice lolly but with some important differences. The orange is less sweet and has a little peel richness. Tangerine. Modest hop spice as well. Smooth light vanilla runs throughout. More orange and tangerine leading to a spicy peel finish. Okay - it's more of a grown up orange ice cream lolly but fuck me this is very well done. Original and very nice drinking in a bit of long awaited sunshine!

Malo chmielu, ale jest. Duuuuzo jakich pomaranczowych nitek a zwlaszcza cukru waniliowego. Faktycznie jak jakies lody z polewa pomaranczowa

Draught at Brewer's Tap and Table, 6/27/18.
Looks like a glass of fresh-squeezed tangerine juice. No head.
Smells like milky orange with spicy, floral notes and light vanilla. No resin, not terribly hoppy but assumedly the citrus character is coming from both hop and actual citrus.
Sweet and floral in the mouth with orange candy-like notes and a prevalent bitterness that makes the beer shockingly drinkable, as lactose and biscuity malts dry the beer out nicely through the middle. Tight carbonation and a soft, malty texture with lots of spicy, green, fresh hop, mild vanilla and orange/tangerine juiciness lingering on. Excellent stuff.

Orange cream, bit hoppy.
