Can. Deep amber body, off white head. Aroma of spices, clove, cinnamon, light toasted grain. Sweet from start to finish. Medium body, smooth texture, moderate carbonation. Flavors of clove, cinnamon, sugar cookies. Sweet but not cloying. A nice Christmas sipper.

Clear orange-gold color with a thin bone white head that evaporates quickly to an outer ring. Short strings of lace. Lemony and wheaty aroma. Light-bodied with flavors of sweet-tart lemon, wheat and biscuit malt. The finish is mildly tart with a lemony aftertaste. Decent overall.

Can. A- Orange, vanilla, mild banana. A- Orange color, hazy liquid, off white head. T- Orange, vanilla, tangy. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, slightly astringent finish. O- I'd call this a slightly more astringent IPA than a sour. I think this would be better fresh. Not a slushy appearance at all which is what I expected. Really okay at best. Not worth the hype.

Medium body with flavors of sweet-tart blueberry, wheat, citrus and bready malt. The finish is mildly tart and creamy with a blueberry aftertaste. Decent overall.

12 ounce can. Hazy yellow gold pour. Large frothy white head. Fresh citrus aroma is redolent of orange mango. Flavor brings sweet orange, grapefruit, cinnamon and vanilla. Very tasty. A unique take on a holiday brew.

Big pounder can for 2-fitty at chalet in N Lima, nice place BTW. First taste is pleasantly tart peachy fruity taste. Decent, perhaps just a little artificial on the peach. Cutting co2 on the palate, nice; it keeps you hopping, heheh, or; should I say keeps you anti-hopping LOL. Some peach perfume nose on the olfactory. Sipping, swigging, gulping, whatever; goes down way too easy. Pehaps a cross between berliner weisse, fruited malt beverage, shandy and a gose? A little difficult to find the alky in this one. Yes, except for the slight artificial peach impact, not bad overall. Good beer tasting experience. Not cloying the least. Just good honest tart fun.

Medium body with flavors of tropical and citrus fruits, vanilla and wheat. The finish is fruity and creamy with a tropical fruit and malt aftertaste. Above average overall.
