From a 375ml can on 29/3/2023. Pours a dark brown with a small thin head. Has a mild but pleasant choc coffee nose. However, the chocolate and coffee if much more prominent on the quite sweet sip, along with some strong caramel and a touch of vanilla. Finishes with a mild bitterness.Has a slick, slightly milky mouthfeel with moderate carbonation. Has more than a bit of Founder's Breakfast Stout about it. Delicious.

Can. This is one they should have put in 250ml stubbies. But _no_, Black with a 2cm beige head. Lots of chocolate and some vanilla and caramel syrup in the aroma. Much lighter in body than expected. Still lots of chocolate but really brought to heel by slightly peppery bitterness. Only hints at its strength. Not really my thing but expertly balanced.

Can, bb tomorrow. Somewhat murky amber with a pale beige head that's soon a coat. Aroma of biscuit, toffee, slightly earthy spices. A little bit of body and quite involved biscuit and stone fruit flavours before moderate bitterness and earthy herbal spicy notes that are nice but could easily have been a bit much. Pretty good.

A very light hazy pale with aromas of tangerine, pine, stone fruit and pepper. Oily mouthfeel with some light citrus and stone fruit. OK.

Draft at Ren Min, Maxwell Food Court, Singapore. Poured a clear medium amber colour with a short-lived, frothy white head. The aroma is big tropical citrus. The flavour is moderate sour, with a crisp, tart, grapefruit, pineapple palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

From a 500ml can on 4/10/2022. Pours a clear red amber with a small to medium head. Has a subdued malty nose with a bit of fruit. Tastes of light caramel malt with some sultanas, finishing with a mild bitterness. Fullish body with average carbonation. Okay I guess but not very IPA like and a little meek and dull for the size.

From a 500ml can on 1/10/2022 (shared with Butz). Pours the deepest brown with a teeny head. Has a strong aroma of caramel, toffee and butterscotch with stewed and dried fruit. Flavour is as per the nose - though the fruit probably holds sway. Lovely balance of sweet fruit, spice and a mild bitterness. Syrupy mouthfeel and softish carbonation. I’ve never had a 16 per center that’s this easy to drink. Perhaps dangerously, I could knock off a can by myself and be ready for more. An outstanding massive barleywine. And incredible bang for the buck.

From a 375ml can on 30/9/2022. Pours a clear deep amber brown with barly any head. Has a mild chocolatey aroma. Tastes strongly of milk chocolate and caramel, with the promised vanilla and marshmallow in the background. Has some light roasty notes at he back which take the edge off the sweetness. The palate is slick with moderate carbonation. Straight forward but enjoyable.

From a 500ml can on 28/9/2022 (shared with Butz). Pours a deep brown with a smallish head. Has a fairly strong smoky bacon nose. The taste features lots of maple sweetness up front, along with a bit of chocolate and caramel. Followed by a distinct smoky bacon/umami finish. The mouthfeel is thick and a touch creamy, the carbonation average. Delivers on the maple and the bacon. Cohesive and really tasty. Lovely.
