On tap at Scofflaw, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out light lactose and a touch of vanilla. Flavour is along the same lines, with lactose, creamsicle flavours and peaches. A bit sweet and certainly popsicle-like. Decent.

On tap at Scofflaw, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out piney hops, with some light resins, and caramel biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with piney and resinous hops, and sweet caramel biscuity malt. Balanced well enough, with a sweet and resinous finish. Decent.

On tap at Scofflaw, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out floral hops, some pine, and toasted biscuity malt. Flavour is rather intense, with override stone fruits, perfumey notes and resins. Boozy, sweet and perfumey. The hops aren't well-expressed or balanced here. Difficult to drink.

On tap at Scofflaw, pours a hazy copper bronze with a small beige head. Nose is very earthy and herbal in the hop department, with cloyingly sweet caramel malt. Flavour unfortunately follows suit, with herbal hops, fungal notes and cloyingly sweet syrupy malt. Poorly balanced and just not constructed well. Yeuch.

On tap at Scofflaw, pours a hazy copper orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out fresh oranges and guava upfront, with citrus hops. Flavour is very sweet, with lots of guava and oranges, citrus hops, and sweet caramel malt. Very sweet, but not cloying. Reasonably balanced and surprisingly easy-drinking for such a high gravity beer. Nice stuff.

On tap at Scofflaw, pours a clear golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out fresh piney and resinous hops upfront, with a sweet cereal malt base. Flavour is full of tropical stone fruits, some piney hops, and biscuity malt. Very fruity and fresh. Good stuff.

Potent DIPA, with a massive caramel-slathered-biscuit malt base and a hop streak mean enough to start international conflicts. Mango, pineapple, mandarin orange, and dank notes hit first, then a piney, bitter finish leads to a resinous, clingy fade. Pours a pretty gold with a lasting white head and good lacing. A tad boozy, but it deserves to be, and the nose is a nice mix of caramel, pine, citrus, and dank. Tasty pint.

Tasty wheat ale that does a damn fine impression of an IPA. Grapefruit, lemon zest, peaches, and apples give way to a mild grassy flourish on the back end, with modest pine and earth creating a balanced bitterness on the finish. Lingering citrus notes and yeast in the fade. Pours a lovely gold with a boisterous white head and good lacing. Nose lacks pop, but does offer citrus, apples, and grass. Medium-bodied and perky, which makes it startlingly easy to put away. Not a home run, but a run-scoring line-drive double.

Another tasty-ass IPA from Scofflaw, this time offering up an enormous amount of passion fruit-orange-guava juiciness tempered by a hefty caramel malt base and loads of hops bittering up the back end. Wet grain, lime zest, berries, and earth all add depth, while the finish makes for a piney, lingering fade. Flirts with growing too sweet but never does, while the ABV remains hidden among all the DIPA loveliness. Delicious.
