Can from Brewforia. Pours hazy amber with a white head. Aroma is rather treacle/caramel. Med body. Flavor is treacle with some sort of hop, but this is really quite malty. Now it seems a bit pineapple. There’s a bitterness. Quite different.

Can from Brewforia. Pours orange amber with a slight head. Aroma is pretty malty. Sort of towards roasty. Med body or nearly. Flavor is roasty malt with some fruit/floral notes, and something rendering it bitter. It’s not exactly dry, but seems hoppy and bitter in the finish. Decent drink.

Can from Brewforia. Pours dark hazy gold with a slight white head. Aroma is just malty. Med minus body. Flavor is malty with perhaps some citrus. It’s not really very tasty. Yet it does have more flavor than a macro lager! Even gets some bitter in the finish. Not much tho.

Pours reddish/amber with small head. Rye grain adds some nuttiness to the flavor and overall presentation. No grain sourness detected, overall very smooth.

tap at the brewpub - Pours very dark brown with a tan head. It has a nice roasted malt aroma with coffee. The flavor is similar, dark roast malt with some mild coffee notes. It’s medium bodied with a lingering roast finish. Good stout.

tap at the brewpub - Pours reddish-orange with a light tan head. It smells of citrus accented hops and caramel malt. The flavor is similar though with just a bit of caramel. Quite good.

tap at the brewpub - Pours clear light orange and has a light, malty aroma. It’s smooth, sweet, and mild with a light to medium body. Okay beer.

tap at the brewpub - Pours amber with an off-white head. It has a mild, grainy malt aroma. The flavor is sweet with a touch of caramel and fruit. I certainly wouldn’t say, as the brewery description does, that it has "assertive hop bitterness". It’s very mild bitterness. Decent beer, that’s about it.
