473ml can. Pours a clear copper with red hue and a small, creamy, short lived, tan head that laces. Sweet aroma of bready caramel malt, nuts and a hint of coffee. Sweet flavour of toasted caramel malt, nuts and chocolate in a dry, mild bitter finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Not really getting any oak from the foeder, but tasty and crushable.

355ml can. Pours a clear gold with a medium, frothy, long lasting, white head that leaves curtains of lace. Aroma of biscuit malt, lemon and floral hops. Sweet flavour of grainy pale malt, orange peel and resin in a crisp, dry, mild bitter, grassy hop finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Refreshing and crushable.

473ml can. Pours a slightly hazy pale gold with a medium, foamy, short lived, white head that laces. Mild fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, strawberry and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, passionfruit, strawberry and floral hops in a dry, slightly tart finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Refreshing and crushable, but slightly disappointing. Tastes like an understated fruit beer trying to be a sour.

Dark brown, served a bit too cold, bubbly head. Aroma has lots of bourbon and toffee. On the palate, same but the bourbon expression is pretty cool - vanilla, tannins, coffee, toffee. Some alcohol in there. Just lots going on here. 3 7 8 4 15

500ml @ Ryan's. Appearance: very dark copper with a beige head. Aroma: plums and other dark fruits along with dark sugars as described, quite sweet. Taste: along the same lines, esters, lots of Belgian yeasts. Overall: ok overall, but it's good for the style.
