16 oz. can from Trader Joe's in Orlando. Pours an opaque dark gold color with a small white head and good retention. Decent lacing. Definite orange aroma. Smells like a fruit beer. Good natural orange peel flavor, mixed with bitterness. I wish it WAS a fruit beer, or a wheat ale. That said, the bitterness isn't too strong. And the 6.9% ABV and the 62 IBUs are both well hidden. Medium body and medium carbonation. Not bad.

12 oz can from Total Wine, Las Vegas, NV. Pours a clear bronze color with a small khaki head and decent retention. Zero lacing. Sweet caramel malt aroma. Caramel malt flavor with some bread in the finish. Decent flavor profile, but this can is a little past its prime. Kind of a flat body. Expired carbonation. Not bitter. Could be really good, but I'd love to try a fresh can.

12 oz can from Total Wine, Las Vegas, NV. Pours a crystal clear gold color with a small white head and fair retention. Barely any lacing. Pale malt and light bread aroma. The taste is similar to the aroma: More pale malt flavor than bread flavor. Lightly sweet. Crisp, clean and smooth. Above average carbonation. Medium body. Not bitter. Very refreshing and very repeatable, but not much of a blonde.

Draft at the brewery. Pours a pitch black color with a small beige head and great retention. Molasses and strong alcohol aroma. The taste follows the nose: Alcohol flavor leads the way with some molasses notes. Just too boozy. Medium+ body. Medium-light carbonation. Light bitterness is lost in the alcohol. Not a fan.

Draft at the brewery. Pours an opaque dark applesauce color with a khaki head and good retention. Great lacing. There's more of a fruity flavor than a caramel flavor. I don't taste any vanilla or toffee flavors. Very light caramel notes. Medium body. Low carbonation. Light bitterness.Not really a fan of the overall mix.

Draft at the brewery. Pours a hazy yellow color with a small white head. Light hops aroma. Nice citrusy edge to the flavor, but it still has that pale ale bitter finish. Better flavor than I expected. Medium body and medium carbonation.Medium bitterness. Above average for the style.
