Can from Corti Bros. Pours lightly hazy dark gold with a creamy white head. Aroma is juicy mixed fruits with some slightly roasty malt. At one point wet dog came into my brain, but that's likely not fair to take seriously. Near full bodied. Flavor is juicy, but it otherwise has the flavor of a yeasty/spicy Belgian ale. Dry. Moderately bitter. There's spice, but I can't find banana. Something suggesting a tropic fruit tho. Amazing and mysterious. And very tasty indeed.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours clear, bright gold with a foamy white head. Aroma brings horse blanket/dank to mind. But it's really just a lot of hops? Orange/melon? Med body plus quite a bit. Flavor is heading to juicy/dank. Not sure it gets there. Lots of hop. Orange seems present. Still going with melon. Burn in the back of the palate. But not in the gullet, so hop burn. Barring some tropical indications this is old school IPA. But given the tropicals, I guess it's new school. IPA it most certainly is.

Waxed bomber from Corti Bros. Pours dark, clear, ruddy brown with a frothy tan head. MIxed bourbon/rum aromas over fairly dark treacle. A little fruity. Near full bodied. Flavor is treacle with a bit of chocolate, non-musty oak aspects, very dark treacle, dark fruits; rum seems dominate over bourbon. Not sticky, but definitely not dry. Heat I can't find for sure. Rum. Could use more, but good.
