Orange

Very sweet. Vanilla and artificial orange in equal measure provide a pretty classic flavor. Lightly tart base provides some relief from the overwhelming sugar. Mostly inoffensive, but extremely long, finish. Ok. Purchased at Tim and Tom's Speedy Market.

Very sweet. Candy start becomes candy middle becomes candy finish, but at least it's consistent. The orange is slightly more insistently present while the raspberry is definitely more of a "blue raspberry" than anything like the actual fruit. Finish is somewhat long but not terrible. Ok.

Quite sweet. Interesting blend of natural and artificial orange is enough to believe it has both floral and fruit, though hard to say if it has either or both. Natural predominates through the middle but the floral/artificial is ascendant in the long, sweet finish. Recommended. Purchased from Dok Brewing Company

Medium sweet. Fruity start with tinted natural orange followed by some light tannins. A small swell of bitterness rises in the middle and threatens to overwhelm before fading with the extended herbal finish. Lots of complexity is revealed while savored. Between the packaging and the contents they come pretty close to a …

Medium sweet. A surprising amount of natural orange in the nose. More hops than I was expecting at the start adds a bitter core with a soft wheat shell. The flavors feel layered but cohesive through the entirety, including the medium long finish. Nice complexity though the fruit might be off-putting for some. Ok. …

Slightly sweet. Bright citrus that strikes an interesting balance between natural and artificial orange flavors. Other than adding some floral notes in the middle, is fairly simple and straightforward. Very long finish is not quite what I had hoped. Ok. Purchased from Snackmagic

Slightly sweet. Rich natural citrus flavor is fairly simple but retains all the characteristics of a satsuma/mikan fruit with some acid and a nice tang from the memory of the peel. Finish is long but nice. Ok. Purchased from Snackmagic

Quite sweet. Definitely orange-ish flavor though has more in common with a cheap orange flavored candy than anything natural. Slightly tangy which adds some depth to an otherwise pretty lackluster soda. Mercifully brief finish. Ok. Purchased at FYE Maplewood Mall

Very sweet. Reasonably good classic orange soda. Not much bitterness, but does have some around the edges. Finish is long but fine. Ok. Purchased at FYE Maplewood Mall

Very sweet. Surprisingly, a very good example of a classic orange soda. Checking the packaging, the white label provider appears to be My Private Label who pretty clearly know how to make a good soda. Clean orange flavor from start to medium long finish. Good cane sugar ensures that finish is pretty clean. Surprisingly …

Medium sweet. I really don't mean this to be too negative, and I will grant that it has been probably a couple of decades since I've had what I'm about to compare this to, but in a lot of ways this is pretty much carbonated Tang. I always enjoyed Tang so that isn't a bad thing in my book but it is difficult to not make …

Very sweet. I can see what they were going for, I just don't think they got there. Near the finish you catch a solid glimpse of the classic orange soda base but everything prior to that is kind of a muddled mess. There are flashes of peach and flashes of orange but mostly it comes across as fruit-like sweetness rather …

Very sweet. Labelled as a passionfruit, orange, and guava flavored soda I can see what they were going for and in the usual way they are not subtle about their flavors. I won't swear by this since it has been at least a couple of decades since I've tasted it, but from what I remember this is at least strongly …

Slightly sweet. Could be carbonated orange juice and, other than some notes from the sweetener blend and the lack of pulp, it could be at least slightly difficult to tell the difference blind. Sort of an amazing achievement. I'm not sure if that is better commentary about modern juice flavor packs or the engineering …

Quite sweet. Classic baby aspirin/orange cream flavor right out of the bottle. Good vanilla and good fruit. Eventually develops a pronounced and nearly off-putting level of bitterness, though arguably adds depth at the same time. Honey is just barely discernable if you go looking for it, but could use a touch more. Ok. …

Slightly sweet. Mango featured at the start. Floral orange comes in quickly, light and bright around the mango core, eventually blending nicely. Chili shows up in the finish and starts nearly undetectable but by a quarter of the way through the can becomes a firm but pleasant presence. Recommended. Purchased at Tim and …

Very sweet. The label proudly announces that this beverage "Fights Scurvy!", but unfortunately does not also warn that it fights taste buds just as well and it is not above fighting dirty. Orange, guarana, wintergreen, clove, anise, and vanilla make for exceedingly unruly shipmates from terrible start to …

Very sweet. Definitely different. Candy orange start gains depth from blooming allspice and cinnamon. Tannins are present but it is otherwise difficult to pin down any other cola flavors. Complicated and very long finish. Ok. Purchased from Blue Sun Soda Shop (Spring Lake Park)

Quite sweet. Welcome to the uncanny valley between "orange pop" and "orange juice". Orange blossom-like fragrance makes for a juicy start married in the middle to mild citrus tang with tones more common to a carton marked "not from concentrate". Medium length finish is distinctly …

Medium sweet. A race at the start between slightly sharp orange and buttery tones from marshmallow in the sweetener are merged and blended as vanilla comes through in the middle. Herbal overtones can come across as chalky sometimes. Recommended. Purchased at Tim and Tom's Speedy Market.

Very sweet. Classic "baby aspirin" flavor of either your dreams or nightmares. Briefly sharp orange flavor is nearly smothered by slightly chalky vanillin middle, but returning in the extended finish. Ok. Purchased at Tim and Tom's Speedy Market.

Very sweet. Classic orange with just enough cinnamon to add complementary flavors without heat. Medium, relatively clean finish. Ok. Originally posted to Twitter.

Quite sweet. Distinct orange flavors layer rather than meld. Somewhat tinny. Natural layer fades quickly while others linger for awhile with sucralose tang. Different. Ok. Originally posted to Twitter.

Very sweet. An interesting blend of natural orange and traditional "orange soda" flavors. Less fructose sugar tones than the 20% juice label would suggest. Very nice finish. Recommended. Originally posted to Twitter.

Very sweet. Intense and slightly tart citrus start with familiar mandarin orange tones resolves quickly to generic fruity candy-esque middle and finally to extremely long sticky finish. Ok. Originally posted to Twitter.

Medium sweet. Immediate bright lime of the industrial cleaner variety. Orange MIA till end of very long finish. OK Originally posted to Twitter.

Very sweet. Solid citrus tart with identifiably orange characteristics. Bitters toward the end somewhat. Recommended Originally posted to Twitter.

Quite sweet. Natural citrus with orange blossom and a touch of molasses. Orange floats through extended finish. Ok. Originally posted to Twitter.

Quite sweet. Citrus tang quickly gives way to clove perched over round vanilla'd fruit. Recommended. Originally posted to Twitter.

Very sweet. Some natural orange enveloped in sugar alcohols finishes with a nice slight bitterness. Ok. Originally posted to Twitter.
