473mL can, pours a clear bright golden with a small white head. Nose has some dulled piney hops, bready malt, and a touch of resins. Flavour is much the same, with plenty of piney hops, dull earthy hops, and bready malt. Reasonable structure but dulled hops despite how fresh this apparently is. Okay.

Darkish amber, kinda murky-looking, as these always are. Medium head. Old school chewy aroma, same palate. Crystal malt bomb in effect. Lots of alcohol. That early 00s IIPA base isn’t a great showcase for a hop like 586, and there’s limited unique hop expression here. It all just devolves into chewiness.

Poured from 650mL bottle (from Capone's Liquor - Powell River; 2024 vintage). Clear copper brown with small beige head. Toffee malt, cognac, feint esters and dried dark fruits. Decent.

473 ml can. Pours a copper color with moderate foamy head. Aromas of dry pine, soapy guava, dull citrus and bready malts. Flavors follow same with emphasis on malts. Nothing really wrong though malts may be overshadowing the hops. In the end, just big malts and a bitter finish. Not in line with other wonderful Numbskull variants.

473mL can, pours a clear amber with a small white head. Aroma is full of rich caramel malt and sticky resinous hops—very malt-heavy. Flavour is extremely malty, almost syrupy, with sticky resinous hops, overripe melon, and some unfortunate herbal/vegetal notes. Too malty and odd hóp expression. Far from my favourite Numbskull variant.

473mL can. Pours clear gold with a white head. Pine, mango, and lots of caramel malts on the nose. Flavour is thick and malty, lots of overripe mango, and some resin. Very malty, erring on the side of syrupy. Brutal and uncoordinated.

650 ml bottle. Pours a deep reddish brown with light head. Aromas of sweet caramel, raisins, a bit of maple syrup, and bready malts. Subtle and sweeter flavors follow same, with a touch of oak; but not getting any real cognac. Nice enough, though a little disappointing.

650mL bottle, pours a deep dark reddish brown with a small beige head. Aroma is somewhat hot, with gentle cognac, bready malt, and some toffee. Flavour is surprisingly integrated but not complex, with bready malt, toffee, and a touch of cognac. They literally dumped cognac in here, eh? Legally side, it doesn’t really work, but it doesn’t kill it. Alright.

Amber brown colour. Thin head. Messy aroma with a bit of bubblegum, caramel. It's got phenols, strength but it's kludgey and doesn't come together. If you imagine some cognac it's there, but again it doesn't really come together.
