Light orange cream aroma, bold with floral herbs. Some bright esters coming from the bold yeast character. Pour of orangish gold. Wispy sweet caramel and lightly profused citrus spice qualities. Acerbic and certain with lemon, from both rind, pith and juice. Nicely down, however a little cloying and yeasty at the backend for me.

Had on tap @ SD CBC Pavilion wall, pours medium gold pour with nice white head. Aroma blends the citrus and grassiness of a Wit with the maltiness and alcohol of a Strong golden. They advertised this as 6.66% at the brewery. Nice amount of coriander and orange in the flavor, but a little more malt and kick-ass than a Wit. I like this one very much~

Golden colour with a thick head. Coriander, bubblegum and florals on the nose. Spicy, firm malt and a bit of florals on the palate. Some icing sugar sweetness late. Slightly wet finish.

On tap @ the Ritual Tavern San Diego. A beautiful burnt orange pour with a good sized off white head that fizzed and left some good lacing. Banana, citrus, spice and yeast rounded out the nose. A great beer, been looking for this one for a long time.

On tap @ AleSmith Brewery tasting room--Shiny orange-yellow body w/big banana-clove nose. Smooth, spicy, fruity bubblegum esters. Very drinkable.
