Can from RCSS. Very cloudy dark amber with a small short lived tan head. Nose has Some moderate grain under a definite Citra mix of citrus, melon, lime, grapefruit and some stone fruit. Flavour has a lightly sweet toffee base with some spice under a moderate (and surprising for an amber) citrus bitterness. Mouth is medium- and slightly sticky with average- carbonation and a short dry finish. Quite drinkable. 8/3/7+/3+/14

Can from RCSS. Cloudy medium orange amber under a slow fading white head that leaves some patchy lace. Nose has lots of citrus, with grapefruit up front with some mango. lime and pineapple and some light floral notes. Underneath is a light honey and toffee. Flavour is not as robust as the nose with the citrus a bit more subdued with a medium- bitterness and a light supporting sweetness. Mouth is a touch short of medium with average carbonation and a moderately long bitter finish. Nice enough but not as tasty as the earlier offerings. 8/4-/7-/3+/15-

Can from RCSS. Clear pale gold with a tiny white head that doesn’t last. Nose is light caramel and lighter grassy hops. Flavour is light sweet caramel and fruit and a lighter bitterness with a bit of spice. Mouth is medium- and slick with a short crisp finish with very soft carbonation. From the other entries I’m guessing this can is a bit flatter than the norm. 6+/3-/3/3-/10+

Tap, left to warm to about 10C. Black with a lasting coat of tan head. Aroma of mocha, roast ,oranges - rich but bright. Just medium bodied, smooth rather silky. Not very sweet at all. Dark choc some black strap molasses, plunger coffee. Dry, slightly spicy and fairly bitter at end. Not fancy, just good. [3.8]Can. Slightly earthy, perhaps more chocolate. Plenty going on (particularly for 5.5%). Very satisfying. No tricks.
