473ml can. Pours a cloudy yellow orange with yeast particles that settle on the bottom and a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves thick, sticky curtains of soapy lace. Sweet fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, orange, mango, peach, earthy yeast and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, tangerine, mango, pineapple, raspberry, passionfruit, peach, earthy yeast and floral hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. Juicy and easy to drink.

473ml can. Pours a slightly hazy amber gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Fruity aroma of grainy wheat malt, orange zest, peach and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of grainy wheat malt, grapefruit, pineapple and pine resin in a dry, bitter finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. A bit thin and timid, but crushable.

473mL can, pours a dirty dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma has artificial chocolate, some faint chocolate cake, subtle cocoa powder, some earthiness, but no real malt base. Flavour is thin, with artificial chocolate, vegetal notes, subtle cocoa powder, and some earthiness. Vegetal, very light, artificial; doesn’t have any malt base, drinking more like a brown ale. Very poor—the fuck were they thinking here?

This poured medium brown with probably the biggest protein chunk I've ever seen in a beer. The aroma tells me this is going to be sweet, thin and bland, despite a blizzard of adjuncts. Ok body, but not much going on. Yeah, the adjuncts are all over the place, does not come together. There is no joy here.

473mL can. Pours very dark brown with a beige head. Cocoa powder and milk cream chocolate on the nose. Flavour has cocoa powder, cheap creamy icing. No malts, some bitterness. What is the point of this?

500mL bottle, pours an opaque muddy brownish orange with a small white head—looks pretty unappetizing. Nose has plenty of bretty funk, muddled earthiness, and some melony hop tang. Flavour has a nice, fairly complex brett expression, with subdued citrusy, tangy hops, a touch of vinous character, but still with that muddled, earthy body. Nice brett expression, good blending; comes together reasonably well despite looking bad and being a bit muffled. Solid.

Looks awful, like pale mud. Has a bretty aroma. On the palate, it's got a creamy IPA base, with a decent bitterness, and there's a lot of brett in there as well. Finishes with some tartness. Not as cohesive as a brett IPA that was brewed that way, but still it's not bad. Score really dragged down by the terrible appearance.

500mL bottle. Pours a murky dull yellow with a white head. Brett, citrus, and grassy, tangy hops on the nose. Flavour has Brett, vinous white wine notes, nice layer of funkiness, and a tangy, white wine grape expression from the Nelson. Nice, this comes together well, good integration between the IPA and the Brett ale. I like this better than the Wild IPA.
