$2.25 can from Beer Run. Pours golden-orange with an off-white head. Aroma is orange, sweat, minor green pepper, minor herbal notes. Flavor is thick pine, orange, toast. Its fine, I suppose, but nothing to knock you off your feet.

Draught @ Albion. Clpudy orange with very small frothy white head, floral hops aroma, medium carbonation, orangey taste with strong lavender like flavor, thin body, medium bitter orangey finish. Quite flavorful, but feels a bit artificial.

Draught at Worden Hall, 4/19/17.
Lightly-to-minimally hazy, pale-blonde-golden body topped by a small, white head that shows moderate to moderately-low retention.
A hint of popcorn and light butter, a la Shipyard, can be found in the nose, but it’s otherwise clean enough and displays grassy, mildly citric, vaguely juicy hops. Seems stretched pretty thin across the cracker and biscuit-like malts. I certainly would not call the aroma "juicy". No alcohol noted, nor resin. Lots of grass, wood, very light pine lingering.
Attenuated reasonably-well in the mouth, with some light cakey/vanilla-like malt sweetness, moderate, loose carbonation and a bit of light graininess on the end. Noticeably lacking are the hops. There’s some grass, herbal and pepper character with light nectarine and other mild yellow fruits, but it doesn’t really get juicy. Maybe some dry mango and pineapple, at most. Hint of diacetyl rounds out the quick, unremarkable finish. No alcohol noted.

Can from Half Time. Press unclear orange, thin head, mild lace. Aroma of orange / citrus, a little herbal hop, some grainy malt notes. Clean, citrusy flavor, mild bitterness. Decent mouthfeel. Won't blow you away, but it's a solid, drinkable brew.
