On tap at Loyal Legion. Pours clear yellow with a white head. Aroma is super dank with a bit of light citrus zest. Flavour is jammed full of dank character; very full-bodied. Incredible dank hop expression without being oily.

On tap at Block 15 Taproom, pours a clear golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is lightly dank, with oily piney hops, a touch of resins, and just enough biscuity malt backing. Flavour is fairly subdued in hop expression, with gentle piney hops and a crisp biscuity malt base. Very restrained, with a lightly oily, piney finish. Competently made as usual but maybe a bit underwhelming.

On tap at Block 15 Taproom, pours a clear light golden with a small white head. Aroma is pretty restrained — can't say I get any Nelson; there's gentle hop character but that's it. Flavour definitely brings out the Nelson, with a very nice white wine/gooseberry character. Light bitterness with a solid crispness on the finish. Very good.

On tap at Block 15 Restaurant, pours a deep dark amber brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted chestnuts, some bready malt, and a hint of dry cocoa. Flavour is malty, with plenty of dry bready crusts, light toasted chestnut, and gentle cocoa. Nice malty beer despite the sweet potatoes not really being obvious. Solid enough.

On tap at Block 15 Restaurant, pours a clear dark amber / chestnut brown with a small beige head. Aroma has plenty of toffee, some resinous hops, and a hint of toasted nuts. Flavour has bitter grapefruit rind, some resinous hops, dry toffee, and toasted nuts. Much maltier and hoppier than a standard amber, which is how I like it. Solid.

On tap at Block 15 Restaurant, pours a cloudy bright yellow with a small white head. Aroma reveals pithy stone fruits, very light dankness, and a touch of earthy hops. Flavour is much the same, with pithy stone fruits, some citrusy hops, papaya, and some jamminess. Has some earthy bitterness on the finish, along with stone fruit jamminess. Not really much chalk, maybe just a touch of hopburn. Good stuff.

On tap at Block 15 Restaurant, pours a clear pale yellow blonde with a small white head. Aroma is prettt much neutral, not much to write about. Flavour is soft, with light grainy rice notes and straw. Clean and drinkable. Nothing special but pleasant enough.
