473mL can. Pours black with a beige head. Toasted brown bread and cocoa on the nose. Flavour has a nice dry roast, bittersweet dark chocolate, and some boozy heat on the finish. Very solid imperial stout.

Dark brown. Fairly thick head. The aroma is just a lot of that artificial orange flavour from the orange chocolate candy. Light body. Thin, a bit fizzy. Decent bitterness. More artificial orange. Not much to this.

Pours a clean (very slight unfiltered with wee particles), golden colour with a white frothy white cap, decent stay and some mild wet-soapy, tiny lacing spots all-around. Malty aromas that are quite mild for the alcohol content, with cereal notes, minerals and a touch of hops. The taste, again is smooth, but has a tad more punch than the nose. Cereal malts, some light sweetness, mineral notes and decent grassy hop bitterness that lingers. Good dryness that cuts what is usually a thicker, syrupy brew. This is a really smooth, strong lager that hits the spot nicely.

Reddish brown with a medium sized foamy tan head. Strong cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger with caramel and booziness underneath. Very long finish. Moderately full bodied.

473mL can, pours a cloudy muddled orange with a small white head. Nose is pretty ridiculous, with plenty of orange creamsicle, resinous hops, stone fruits, and some earthiness. Flavour is fairly egregious, with tons of artificial orange creamsicle, lots of sugars, some resinous hops that are buried, and stone fruit pith. What a terrible idea and pretty badly executed. What is the target market for nonsense like this?

A little off on this one. Almost tastes like bretta or something in the background. Kind of a cat piss aroma. Pours hazy golden with ok head. Astringent afterwards. Can.

Active white head on a pink and peach body. Zesty nose with currants, citrus and slightly sour fruit. Lots of fruit notes going on here - currents, cranberry, orange and tropical accents. Quite sweet, a touch of sour and a lasting tartness.

A well-laced off-white head n a clear mahogany body. The nose is all about caramel and floral and tropical hops. The taste is an IPA-like blend of bready malt, rye bread, caramel, and floral and tropical hops. A bid taste for a 5% ale.
