From a 440ml can on 18/2/2024. Pours an opaque pinky red with some floaties and a small head. Has a pleasant mild berry nose. Tastes of raspberry and blackberry - reasonably sweet but in no way cloying. Has enough countering bitterness to retain a a beer like profile. The palate is lightly creamy and the carbonation moderate. Pleasant, easy drinking and presents exactly as per the label. Nicely done.

Can. Hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma of lemon, crackers, some honeydew melon. Opens up a bit more upon a taste with some white peach and broader citrus. Dryish with enough bitterness to make a finish. Refreshing on a hot night.

Can. Very hazy orange amber with a good cm of white head that laces well. Aroma is very boozy with some citrus and tropical fruit. Much better upon a taste - sweet with peach and oranges, some tropical fruit before bitterness gradually draws things in quite nicely. There's a bit of alcohol there too but it fits better. Oh, all right:/ grips then bitter end/ relief of gentle peach/ much before is booze

From a 440ml can on 25/1/2024. Pours a slightly opaque mediu golden with a medium head. Has a modest, muted fruit nose. On the sip, it's reasonably sweet with peach and orange being most prominent, finishing with a tangy moderate bitterness. Silky mouthfeel with moderate to average carbonation. Very solid if not spectacular.

Aromas of apricot, bread, honey and lemon. Luscious mouthfeel with a hint of mango as well as those other notes.

A very pleasant nose with passionfruit, lychee, pineapple and dry biscuit. But it's much dryer and citrusy in the mouth, with only a hint of that passionfruit at the beginning. Bit of a shame really.

This one grew on me after a slow start. It has a very unique aroma of peach, grass, pepper and lemon. Nice, full body although that peach disappears in the mouth. A good pale ale. A great one when you consider they're selling it for $5.50 a can!

A Frankenstein beer that got better as I drank it. It does feel like two beers brought together. There's bourbon, raisins, chocolate, caramel, lemon and biscuit. The lemon is more prominent on tasting, accompanied by the raisins and chocolate. I started not knowing what I thought about it, and finished a strong fan. Tasted after the demise of Deeds. RIP to the greatest.

Strong aromas of apricot, orange peel, toast and mint. The taste includes apricot, caramel, salt and grapefruit. Perhaps a touch overly sweet, but a very nice IPA that hides its 8.8% pretty well. Drunk after the sad demise of Deeds. RIP to the greatest.
