Can. Almost black with a a dense light beige head. Aroma of mocha, teddy bear biscuit, chicory. Then rather roastier than guessed with a dry but still rich savoury background. Polished and pretty good.

Can. A subtle move away from their usual 80s cigarette packet design towards more of an early 90s video imprint logo. Nice. Clear amber with an inch of white head. Aroma of pine, breadcrust, grapefruit. Not all that sweet but with solid breadcrust before resin and some grapefruit before a fairly bitter finish. Very Torpedo.

Can. Gold with a large white head (fills a Duvel glass). Aroma is doughy with lightly earthy spices, peach, some banana, lemon pudding. Light bodied, spritzy. Fruity but reasonably lean with a spicy and moderately bitter finish. Would have liked a little drier at the end and a little more bitterness - perhaps bb Christmas day is getting towards an issue - but this is a typically solid offering.

Can. Reddish brown, clear. Fading pale beige head. Aroma of sticky breadcrust, prunes, ripe tropical fruit, grapefruit. Sweet toffee flavours with a mixture of fruit but doesn’t really seem heavy before a lightly spiced citrus- tinged bitter end. Not totally my sort of thing but neatly done.

That's Old as in like Toohey's (Hunter) Old, then. Dark brown, head fizzes away rapidly. Aroma of mocha, caramel, grass. Lowish carbonation - could have been a tad higher for me. Sweeter than Old and the somewhat higher bitterness isn't quite enough to counter it. Lacks the fruity touch of the macro. A bit of a miss.
