Still had some Winter Mixer packs left at The Beer Store. This was in it. Pours a clear rich honey amber colour with a creamy light-beige head, good retention and lacing, creamy again and wavy. Aromas of cereal grain, light sweetness from the citrus all balanced out with some grassy hops. Tastes like an amber as well, with none of the mandarin and oranges taking much place. If none at all. Seems like a decent regular amber ale as you do not taste the "pure orange oil" as listed in the ingredients. OK, maybe slightly in the aftertaste, after breathing a while.

341 ml bottle. Clear amber colour with small short lived off white head. Sour aroma with orange dominating and a bit of malt. Flavour is slightly sweet, mandarin orange, grainy malt with a mildly bitter, citrus peel finish.
