Can from La Riviera in Sacramento, CA. Pours hazy orange gold with a creamy white head. Aroma is very orange with a touch of zest. Med plus plus body. Flavor is orange with zest. It is fruity and bitter. Zesty bitter. Quite the experience. Nicely done.

473ml can. Murky, orangey colour with small, frothy, bubbly, fading, white head. Zesty, citrusy fruity, hoppy aroma, notes of bitter orange, blood orange, mandarine. Taste is tart-ish and zesty bitter, citrusy hoppy, notes of orange zest, blood orange, bitter orange, minimally sugary, sweet malty counterpart. Slightly warming finish with disguised alcohol - except for the warming effect. Orange juice indeed - or even closer to vodka orange.

16oz can via trade, thanks Arturo, shared with Tderoeck, post BBP Wanderlust. No BB. Orange/dorée sur un léger trouble, col fin blanc. Arôme au nez rappelant la mandarine Napoléon avec des notes assez marquées de tropical dont pas mal d'orange. Palais est chargé en agrumes - zeste d'orange, jus d'orange sur une fin base maltée, caramel et pâle qui arrive en retrait. Le côté orange est bien rendu et au final couvre un peu l'effet attendu des hoblons.

New England style IPAs are a perfect vehicle for fruit and perhaps most expressively so for citrus fruit, so it comes as no surprise that in this whole juicy IPA trend we see happening worldwide, a NEIPA with added orange pops up every now and then. This is one such example, consumed from a can at Bar Beenhouwer, thanks to tderoeck. Egg-white, loose-bubbled, dissipating and eventually completely vanishing (I guess under influence of the citrus oil) head, cloudy orangey-tinged peach-yellow robe – with the head gone, looking exactly like a glass of Looza orange juice or something alike. Aroma bursts with real, if somewhat stale orange flesh and orange juice, with a touch of wodka-like alcohol reminding a bit of a Screwdriver; passion fruit, papaja, sweat, mojito and rubber impressions show up as well but orange remains the all-powerful factor. Same in the mouth: utterly fruity, very obvious and dominating orange juice with hints of lime and mango, rather spritzy carbonation, thin doughy malt body completely absorbed in this orange juice thing, zesty and quenching, sweet and citric, with only the slightest amount of end bitterness – you really need to go out and look for it, and even then, more of the finishing bitterness is due to wodka-like alcohol than due to actual alpha acid. Again a Screwdriver in beery guise, though the ‘beery’ aspect is to be taken with a pinch of salt in this case; a one-trick pony, but if the goal was to imitate orange juice, mission accomplished. I’d rather have a real orange juice instead.

Can. Hazy orange gold beer, small cream colour head. Smooth and fairly light palate, decent fine carbonation. Light malts, light creamy sweet malts. Bright fresh orange juice. Quite remarkably fresh, well backed by lighter tangerine and mandarin. Light pine and lighter hop spice on the back end. I normally think that adding fruit juice is a bit of cheat and those flavours should come from the hops but there is no denying what the brewers have done here works really well. Struggling not to chugg the lot.
