Not a particularly exceptional fruit beer. The orange peel comes across as astringent, not sweet, with very little aroma. Picked this up in Toronto in 2013.

I like when citrus mingles with my liqour so why not in my beer? Two finger foam cap that descends into lake-like valley. Nothing much on the nose & subtle on the mouth. Got a bit of that funky skunky mud water after taste that so many southern Ontario brewers can’t seem to shake.

Poured clear golden, nice small clean head. A small distinct citrus aroma. Not overbearing smell. Aeroma matches clean look.
Taste is a bit of a disapointment as i was expecting a slightly stronger taste. Was a bit too weak. Beer might have been too cold.
Overall, will drink this again!

Nasty artificial orange flavoring aroma, weak bodied, flavorless specialty ale. Not worth 4.95$ for a bomber. Don’t waste your time.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Canmoore (79) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - MAR 16, 2013
This beer pours a clear straw colour, with a soapy white head that quickly dissipates leaving some good lacing. The aroma is of orange peel, yeast, and some light malts. The taste is packed with bitter orange peel, it tastes just like you are chewing orange rinds! Some mild malt notes poke through the orange peel flavour, but this beer is definitely living up to its name. From previous years I have heard the orange taste was lacking, this years batch is just exploding with orange peel bitterness! Quite interesting, and refreshing!
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20 Elwood (2552) - Leesburg, Virginia, USA - NOV 24, 2012
Serving: 22 oz. bottle. It pours a hazy light orange color with a short lived white head. The nose is a muddled mix of stale beer and artificial orange. The flavor is a terrible mix of pale malt, stale beer, artificial orange, and an odd lingering bitterness. Light to medium body. Just plain terrible.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 Phatman (174) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - SEP 13, 2012
From bottle, pours an opaque brown like an inviting bitter. Hunting for the Orange on the nose left me searching, definite malt, caramel sweetness. Upon taking a mouthful there’s the malt to chew your way through balanced nicely with the hops. Good bitterness throughout. Don’t forget the Oranges as their fashionably late appearance towards the end. Some may look for a more obvious or in your face presence but I prefer the more subtle approach, they complement the ale nicely.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20 Nilz (232) - Glasgow, SCOTLAND - SEP 13, 2012
Bottle pours a deep gold, clear, with an light head. Aroma was sweet toffee malts, some citrus notes though not as significant as I had anticipated. Taste of sweet citrus elements and mild bitterness.
