From a 440ml can on 27/5/2021. Pours a super dark amber/brown with a small to medium head. Has a nice strong chocolate nose. Tastes of dark and milk chocolate and cocoa, with a bit of hazlenut, but less than I was expecting. Has a nice dark choc bitterness at the back. The mouthfeel is a touch syrupy, the carbonation moderate. Very tasty and really well done.

A nice aroma of toast, biscuit and some pine. The toastiness is really nice in the mouth, but I think it's a little overpowered by the sharp hop flavour, and it's also a little watery.

355ml can into schooner glass. From Welder's Dog, Tamworth. Pours a pink/brown with a thin bubbly head that dissipates. Sweet berry nose, slight sourness. Light body, tangy but creamy. Like a lemonade yogurt with a tangy berry finish. Easy to drink, very refreshing, bit ephemeral.

(Can) Pours slightly hazy amber with small dense white head. Nice aroma - pine with stone fruit hints. Medium body, fine bright carbonation. Good tasting beer. Hops drive the flavour from start to bitter finish. There’s a nice caramel malt for balance. There’s some fruity hints at the start. Good and hoppy.

(Can) Pours cloudy and lumpy golden amber with small white head. Nice fruity aroma with plenty of guava and notes of orange and passionfruit. Medium bodied with plenty of soft mouth filling carbonation. The taste is really quite tart, initially rather overpowering the other flavours. I found that my palate accommodated to it though as I carried on drinking. There’s some nice fruit notes, with orange more to the fore with notes of passion fruit. There’s some funky and yoghurt hints and notes of dough in the finish. Refreshing, interesting but for me a bit too tart to begin with.

(Can) Pours hazy red pink with good light pink head. Interesting aroma is raspberries, yoghurt with candy and funky hints. Medium bodied, quite smooth with fine carbonation. Taste is sour, but not too sour. There’s citrus and raspberries, some creamy candy notes. Refreshing, unusual, but a little odd.

Pours gold with a large quickly fading head.Nose shows Belgian yeast, but a bit rough around the edges with bready and apple notes. Some spicy phenolic characters, a hint of sultanas and white wine, and a faint lemon note.Flavours include more Belgian yeast notes, some bready characters, a rich confectionery like malt character, and some spicy and grassy hops. Towards the finish the booze takes over, a bit hot/solvent-like mixing in with a somewhat hoppy bittterness.Body feels a bit flat.

Mango and pineapple dominate the aroma, with pine, peach, mint and pepper. It's got the creamy mouthfeel with the mango, pineapple and peach present, plus plenty of the piney hops. The cream comes through again at the back of the throat, but there's also a fair bit of alcohol warmth. I don't quite know what to make of this one.

(Can) Pours clear deep red brown with small tan head. Wonderfull aroma of roast peanuts, toffee, digestive biscuit, notes of chocolate. Excellent mouthfeel too - medium bodied, with bright carbonation to start moving to soft and smooth in the mid palate. Great taste too. Roast peanuts and toffee with notes of chocolate and hints of berries and some pleasant alcohol warmth. Very clever and very good.
