mjg74 (1803), La Mesa, California, USA Jun 6, 2008 Bottle from Casa De Oro Liquor. Slightly hazy orange/golden color. Sweet candy orange aroma, with a hint of graininess. Sweet fruity flavor up front. With a bit of bitter graininess towards the finish. Kind of reminds me of Fruity Pebbles.
PorterPounder (2852), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Sep 26, 2008 Tallahassee, Fl.- Liquor Loft - 22 oz bomber. Pours a murky medium orange with absolutely no head - kind of lifeless. Aroma of an artificial orange drink - not juice - but the kind you find at a McDonalds birthday party. Flavor has that same vacant artificial orange-tangerine flavor overwhelms whatever beer likeness this beverage may have. Also find some hints of a Tequila sunrise in here - the grenadine aspects of it. Starchy mouthfeel. Not the most pleasant beer drinking experience. cmillward (210), Orlando, Florida, USA Sep 22, 2008 Bottle. Pours and orange/gold relatively clear body with a very small white head. The nose if Dimatap orange overtop malty wheat. Flavor of rotting orange and wheat, some hints of seltzer water. Has a prickly mouthfeel, which could have been good if the rest wasn’t so atrocious. I know other people who thinks this has a good orange flavor, but I could get past the Diamatap impression. Ugh, you really couldn’t get me to try this again. esjaygee (820), Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA Sep 20, 2008 Hazy dark amber with a quickly dissipating white head. Aroma of tangerine, light citrus and sweet malt. Taste of mild tangerine, grains and fruit. Comes in at the lower threshold for a drinkable fruit beer. ChainGangGuy (1602), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Sep 19, 2008 Appearance: Pours a clear, orange-copper body with a thin, meager head.
Smell: A bottle politely mentions a "hint" of tangerine, but, damn it, I say there’s more than a hint! A lovely, tangerine laden nose is what it is, friends.
Taste: A solid dose of wheat, but it’s mainly sweet, juicy tangerines. Sweetish at first, but then it gives way to more citrus and a light, vague bitterness. Citrusy all the way through to the end, babies!
Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium-low carbonation.
Drinkability: Just when I was griping about a lack of tangerine-based beers Lost Coast saves the day. ucusty (1214), Wake Forest, North Carolina, USA Sep 17, 2008 Hazy dark amber pour with a thin head. Grains and citrus on the nose. Creamy orange flavor
