Pours hazy orange with a large sudsy head.Nose shwos dank hops, mango, pineapple, lychee and passionfruit, along with soft red berry notes.Flavours include more berry notes, citrus, peach, and strong herbal hops that are not exactly complimentary to the fruity hop notes. A fair whack of sweetness in there too, that again, doesn't quite meld.

(Can) Pours black with small short lived tan head. Nice aroma of caramel with notes of cookie dough, nuts and dark roast malt. Great mouthfeel- medium bodied, smooth with plenty of bright carbonation. Great taste too. Caramel and cookie dough are prominent with associated sweetness. Behind this is some balancing dark roast malt bitterness and some sour hints, which carry through to the finish. Very enjoyable.

(Can) Pours opaque amber dun with with a small loose off white head. Lovely aroma, mainly orange citrus with hints of cream or vanilla. Full bodied, smooth, velvety with some bright carbonation. Great mouthfeel. Lots going on taste wise. Thereโs plenty of hops giving a citrus start that develops quickly into plenty of bitterness. Orange and a notes of creamy sweetness are present throughout. Very unusual and enjoyable.

(Can) Pours opaque amber with small off white head. Pleasant aroma of stone fruit and pine. Luxurious mouthfeel with soft full body and fine velvety carbonation. Great taste with an interesting mix. There is plenty hops giving pine notes and some nice bitterness thereโs fruity tang stone fruit flavours. And thereโs some surprising sweetness quite late in the palate. Maybe a hint of alcohol too towards the finish. Very enjoyable.

(Can) Pours dark brown with red highlights and a small thin loose tan head. Lovely aroma of coffee and roast grain. Light bodied with bright plentiful carbonation. Good taste with an interesting balance between rich and refreshing. The start is light, tangy and refreshing but quickly followed up with richer coffee, nuts and strangely creamy notes. These give way at the end to some gentle bitterness and a bit of tang. Unusual and very drinkable.
