From a 440ml can on 21/1/2026. Pour sa hazy dep golden with a medium head. The nose is fairly light -floral and a touch fruity. The fruit is very pronounced on the sip - orange mango and peach, which is met by a decently firm bitterness, with a dash of booze further taking the edge off the fruit up front. Silky mouthfeel with moderate carbonation. A very solid big hazy.

From a 440ml can on 18/1/2026. Pours a clear deep golden with a medium to big head. The nose features some fruit, biscuit and some slightly odd light minerally notes. Those continue into the taste, which also delivers a decent whack of citrus fruit, and some light biscuit malt, finishing with medium hop bitterness featuring both resin and pine. The body is medium with and slightly oily palate and average carbonation. This one is drinkable, but just a bit too odd and funky for me to really hit home.

(Can) Pours slightly hazy orange amber with small white head. Pleasant mixed tropical fruit aroma. Medium body with plenty of fine carbonation. Taste is fruity with caramel and some modest bitterness at the end. Very well balanced and good to drink.
Dark brown, small head, huge chocolate nose, huge chocolate flavour burst. Behemoth know how to do a good imperial stout. The raspberry tastes too much like the artificial chocolate fish version for me but then maybe its meant to. Good, not great.
Rich chocolate non BA. Milk chocolate up front, smooth. LCI
Sweet creamy milk chocolate with a slightly candied raspberry taste. I don’t know the original candy.
Malt-forward, slightly biscuity. Crisp, to style
Orange, not so much passion fruit. Very lightly sour

From a 440ml can on 12/8/2025. Pours a lightly hazy deep golden with a big foamy white head. The nose featured some muted fruit notes. The taste is mainly apricot and peach with a light tangy bitterness at the back. That it weighs in at 8 per cent is a surprise. Has a slightly silky palate and moderate carbonation. It's pleasant enough, but not much more. Like every Behemoth, the can art is wonderful! Fuck Putin and Trump.
