Medium semi foggy brown body and little foam, plenty of orange rind on the nose that some mistake for bourbon. Flavour is soft fruity bourbon, yeast, wood. Medium finish. Acceptable but not amazing.

Cloudy gold with a small white head. Light sweet malts. Light cooked orange and some light sweet tartness.

On tap at Steamworks, pours a hazy amber with a small beige head. Aroma is full of the oak upfront, with light bourbon and some orange. Flavour is full of Belgian yeast, esters, oranges, and subdued barrels. I wish the barrels contributed more - the esters are bit all over the place but the orange seems to temper them. Decent.
