Surprisingly good. It’s exactly what one would expect. Light in body, light orange floral aroma and taste. Sweet but no where near cloying or overpowering. Very well done. Light spice. I think it works well as exactly what’s it’s intended to be. Don’t let it warm up though. Once it gets into the upper 50s the flaws come out.

Smells like the old time Orange Crush. Lousy label, medium orange-gold beer with virtually no head. Orange flavored, that’s it - moderately sweet, next to no hopping. Medium light body. Not cloying, but strictly one dimensional.

Easy to drink and easy on the pallet with food. I would drink this beer in warm weather for sure. The orange flavor is quite subtle. It could certainly taste more like a beer and not a fruit drink. But if light and airy is what you are looking for then give it a spin.

Single from Three Cellars. This one to me was more like Orange slezer water with a beer chaser. VERY carbonated.

Crushed with Jakebra. Pleasant aroma, smells like a combination of Sunny Delight and orange Gatorade powder. Some orange in the flavor and some nothing otherwise in the flavor. Better fruit beer than I’ve experienced in the past, but still not that good.

Pale gold body with a small fizzy head that disappears quickly. Fairly sweet aroma of oranges. Other than a lot of carbonation, the mouthfeel is light. The flavor is not bad. Pretty sweet, and even tastes like orange soda for a moment. There is just a touch of hoppy bitterness at the end to remind you that it’s a beer. A decent beer, especially for hot summer days.
