Tap. Pours crystal clear orange, medium off white head, creamy with nice lacing. Aroma is light, faint notes of caramel and pine. Flavor is medium sweet, grape jelly (!), spruce, bread, pine, light bitter. Lingering bitter jelly finish, but bit harsh. Medium body. Surely interesting, not sure how great it is, but points for originality.

Tap at Old Fashioned. Unfiltered cloudy orange. No real head, thin oily residue. Sweet orange-clove aroma. Medium bodied, doughy malt backbone. Zesty citrus lemon-banana clove flavor. Enjoyable, but not really on the level of classic Bavarian examples. A nice citrus bite, smooth sweet finish. Well balanced.

Bottle. Pours a very pale yellow color with a thin, creamy head that leaves a fair bit of lacing. Faint grainy aroma. Taste was of sweet grains, pale malts, and some grassy hops. Light bodied and overly carbonated. Decent enough on a hot summer day I suppose.

Brown-black with a beige head. Fruity artificial cherry tones. I don’t get much bourbon at all, just sweet chocolate sugariness. Medium bodied, pretty unimpressive. Cocoa sweetness. Easy drinker. Whateva.
