12 ounce bottle thanks to a Ratebeerian who shall not be named. Hazy orange with HUGE chunks. Historically, Saranac created mediocre beer but they always looked amazing. This one looks scary. Oh well. Thin head quickly fades. Aroma of wheat and citrus. The taste is wheat and citrus. Maybe a bit of spice. Thin, highly carbonated. 200th wit.

Hazy copper and bronze coloured body with a nice, two centimetre tall white head. Aroma of grass, light tropical fruits, a bit of hay and funk and a touch of sweetness at the end from mangoes and light caster sugar. Light-bodied; Strong grassy and very tropical fruit flavours at first with papaya and guava noticeable along with some grassy and hay finishes. Aftertaste shows some grass, hay, light tropical fruits and some sweetness from honey and caster sugar with a bit of mangoes noticeable near the end, as well. Overall, a nice-ish beer that shows almost as a fruit beer, but with some hops as well and a bit of grasses, but balanced throughout. Nice to sample, as this was a Saranac beer that didn’t just make me shake my head, but actually finish the beer without waiting to get rid of it. That said, it wasn’t great, but it wasn’t awful. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Shopper’s Food Warehouse in Alexandria (Potomac Yard), Virginia on 21-June-2017 for US$1,25 sampled at home in Washington on 13-August-2017.

12 ounce bottle. Clear golden, large foamy white head, decent retention. Aroma of doughy malt and grassy hops. Taste is doughy malt, grassy hop. Medium bodied, crisp.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured an orange-caramel color with a large fluffy orange-tan head that lingered and left decent lacing. The aroma was brewed coffee, cream, vanilla and faint notes of roastiness and wood. The flavor as sweetish with brewed coffee, cream, toasty malts, caramel and vanilla.Long finish. Medium bodied and smooth. Pretty tasty.

Bottle from Total Wine, South Richmond. Pours clear gold with a small soft white head. Aroma is blueberry, lager. Flavor is blueberry - not overly sweet but not bitter, grass, grain. Pretty straightforward. Drinkable.
