Brewed in Canada by Labatt. Pours a clean light-yellow colour with a nice white cap that stays long enough and creates streaky lace. Smells like oranges and light malt at first. Then, the orange essence take over feeling like those orange lollipops. The orange feel a little more natural in the flavours with mild yeast that stick to the tongue. Not a bad orangy light beer.

Kroger bottle, pick your own 6. Clear pale gold, hint of orange coloring, white head. Aroma is artificial orange candy... that's it. Flavor is between orange alka-seltzer and orange Kool-ade. There's actually a hint of real orange buried underneath the artificial flavor, which is surprising. Perhaps remove the artificial parts and this wouldn't be bad. As it stands, this is an alco-pop.

Bottle from Total Wine in Folsom, CA. Pours brassy gold with a bubbly/foamy/fizzy/weird white head. Aroma is fairly strong orange zest. Med minus body. The flavor starts decent orange zest, degenerates into something more like hard candy and ends up with a rather unpleasant maltiness. Sort of dry. Zesty bitter. Somehow it does not work well for me.

Bottle. Clear golden, head fades quickly. Aroma of grainy pale malt and juicy orange. Taste is juicy orange, hits of pale malt. Thin. Basically orange soda, but it's not terrible.

Bottle. Artificial orange aroma - like a really cheap can of generic orange soda. Pale yellow with small, short lasting head. Moderately sweet artificial orange - slightest hint of malt and hay. Minimal body. Only slightly stronger flavor than La Croix orange mineral water.

25 ounce can into lager glass, canned on 3/16/2018. Pours crystal clear pale golden yellow color with a 1 finger dense and rocky white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of big juicy oranges, lemon, and citrus zest; with lighter notes of cracker, white bread, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Nice aromas with juicy citrus and light-moderate malt/earthy hop notes; with good strength. Taste of big juicy oranges, lemon, and citrus zest; with lighter notes of cracker, white bread, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Mild herbal, grassy, zesty, spicy bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of juicy oranges, lemon, citrus zest, cracker, white bread, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Nice robustness and balance of juicy citrus and light-moderate malt/earthy hop flavors; with a nice malt/bitterness balance, and zero cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with zero yeast notes present. Light-moderate increasing dryness from lingering hop/zest bitterness and carbonation. Medium-high carbonation and light body; with a very smooth, fairly bready/grainy, and lightly sticky mouthfeel that is good. A bit thin, but not watery feeling. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4.2%. Overall this is a good flavored light lager. All around good robustness and balance of juicy citrus and light-moderate malt/earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. Liked this a lot more than the Lime. Definitely more flavorful, and I was a bit fan of the juicy, vibrant, and zesty citrus flavors; with solid presence of clean light lager flavors. A nicely enjoyable offering, and well made fruit beer. Very authentic feeling fruit flavors.

Clear bottle from JRs. Pale yellow. Pretty good nose, yes orange and its not really artificial. Taste is orange fer sure, its somewhat like orange shandies I've had in the past. The orange flavor starts to get on my nerves in the middle. Pretty good co2 clear to the end. The finish reminds me a tad of orange soda, just not so sweet.
