Amber pour, thinnish head. Orange juicy nose light cream sweetness. The flavor has lots of fresh orange which moves to creamy finish and light bitterness. Oddly stale tones, but interesting. If this were a Cigar City I would rate it a 4.4 and trade a growler for a Yellow Bus, but this brewery is in Lynnwood, WA.

Draft at the main street, bothell. Pours a hazy light gold with a loose white head. Big sugary orange nose. Fizzy medium body. Sweet cream and oranges on the mid palate, as advertised. Sweet finish. Too sugary to be refreshing, but light and simple and built with refreshment very much top of mind. Kind of a conundrum that way.
