Wiley Roots Brewing Co. Orange Blossom Slush

What the brewers say

“Sour ale with pureed mandarin oranges and vanilla.”

What our panel thought

“Massive orange Creamsicle nose. Obvious orange and vanilla notes; vanilla maybe more than a bit over the top. Pleasant tartness rounds the beer out. Citrus notes come across as natural and fresh; vanilla is earthy-sweet and complementary. Crisp and enjoyable. One dimensional but really well-done.”

What our editors thought

“Orange Creamsicle nose is unapologetic—over the top and intense. Sip brings out citrus acidity with a touch of watered-down orange juice, but the beer delivers on its promises.”
