About This Beer

While the dream of the ‘90s is alive in Portland, the Rose City crew at Great Notion are heads and tails above those dark ages of beer!

These creative brewers challenge convention while raking in awards from the World Beer Cup, GABF, and Best of Craft Beer Awards! And with Orange Creamsicle, they’ve concocted a new school Milkshake IPA worthy of modern accolades AND ‘90s nostalgia!

Tasting Notes

Channeling the bright orange coating of a creamsicle bar, this Ale leverages the orange citrus notes of Amarillo and Motueka Hops to create its juicy base. Then they dial up the summertime ice cream truck vibes by squeezing every last drop of sunshine from bushels of tangy tangerine!

Balancing the acidic tropical flavors are swirls of silky vanilla and lactose, allowing each sip to flow past your palate as carelessly as a melting popsicle.

Creamy, light, and delicious! Tastes just like orange creamsicle soda pop! One of the best

definitely like a liquid orange creamsicle if you added some hoppy goodness to it

This beer is missing something. It’s too light-bodied for an IPA in my opinion and the orange cream flavor is only there for a second before it completely dissipates. A good beer for beginners

As advertised. A sweet and light (sneaky) 7%-er

nice juicy flavor. less dry than a lot of IPA’s. It has the illustrious creamy mouthfeel. Great citrus taste.

Orange and hops on the nose. Vanilla and candied orange on the palate with a bit of creamy milk sugar. Slightly sweet, relatively tart, and just a hint of bitterness on the finish. Not bad at all.

Definitely an IPA, and instead of the IPA aftertaste there is distinct orange creamsicle flavor instead.
