24 ounce can into tulip glass, canned on 7/11/2017. Pours very hazy golden/orange juice color with no head retention or lacing. A fair amount of steaming carbonation and clinging bubbles on the glass. Good appearance. Aromas of tangerine, orange juice/pulp, lemon, lime, citrus peel/zest, cracker, corn, white bread dough, and slight herbal/grassy earthiness. Bit of fruity corn aromas, but not overwhelming. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance of citrus juice/zest and moderate pale malt/corn notes; with solid strength. Taste of big tangerine, orange juice/pulp, lemon, lime, citrus peel/zest, cracker, corn, white bread dough, and slight herbal/grassy earthiness. Light citrus tang/tartness; and slight herbal, grassy, zesty bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of tangerine, orange juice/pulp, lemon, lime, citrus peel/zest, cracker, corn, white bread dough, and slight herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great robustness and balance of citrus juice/zest and moderate pale malt/corn flavors; with a nice malt/juice/tartness balance, and no cloying flavors after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from tart/tangy fruit, spicy alcohol, and carbonation after the finish. Medium-plus carbonation and medium body; with a very smooth, fairly crisp, juicy/pulpy, bready/grainy, and acidic/tangy balanced mouthfeel that is great. Slight increasing warmth of 5.9% after the finish. Overall this is a very nice fruit flavored malt liquor. All around nice robustness and balance of citrus juice/zest and moderate pale malt/corn flavors; dangerously smooth and fairy crisp/refreshing to drink, with the mellowly acidic/tangy/drying finish. Very flavorful and not watery. Tastes just like a beer mimosa as expected. Tons of citrus juice vibrancy, with nice malt liquor presence/balance in the background. A very enjoyable offering, and well made style example. Held up really well for the age of the can.

24 ounce can from Woodman's Oak Creek. Looks like pulpy orange juice. No head. Aroma of orange, bubblegum, vanilla. Taste is tart juicy orange, nothing else. Very tart, probably to mask any hint that this actually contains alcohol. Thin. Terrible beer, but a solid O.J.

Pours orange from the 24 ounce can.
Orange citrus and some alcohol in the smell.
Orange flavour, mostly sweet but with a slight tartness. Alcohol is noticeable just because how much this reminds me of juice and not a malt liquor flavoured with oranges; iow, it's not boozy.
This defies my definition of a malt liquor but to me, it's drinkable. Not even all that bad. How's that for a recommendation!
