On tap at Aslan, pours an opaque bright peachy orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out pithy stone fruits, with resinous hops, and bready malt. Flavour is quite bold on the resinous hops and very pithy stone fruits, the latter of which imparts a rather assertive bitterness. Muddled and lacking cohesion. Needs some cleaning up.

On tap at Aslan, pours a clear copper amber with a small beige head. Aroma is full of smoke, with a touch of caramel and bready malt. Flavour is sweet and smoky, with a nice blend of campfire smoke and caramel malt. Gentle residual sweetness melds well with the ashy, campfire smokiness. Good stuff.

On tap at Aslan, pours black with a small tan head. Nose is full of nutmeg and cinnamon upfront, with maybe a hint of cardamom and light ginger. Flavour follows accordingly, with a pronounced harsh spicy bitterness, containing cinnamon, nutmeg and cardamom. Spicy and bitter, with a roasty base. Not my thing at all. Quite harsh and lacking cohesion.

On tap at Aslan, pours a cloudy bright golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out a herbal, slightly dank hop character, with a crisp biscuity malt base. Flavour is dank and fruity for a pale, with dank, pot-like hops, some gentle stone fruits, and dry biscuity malt base. Crisp and sturdy for a pale. Nice.

On tap at Aslan, pours a clear pale straw yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out grassy notes, straw and crisp crackery malt. Flavour is clean and crisp, with straw, crisp crackery malt, and a hint of grass. Very clean and much more pleasant than a macro, but not all that interesting.

On tap at Aslan Depot, pours a clear amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out lots of oak, tart fruits, and wild yeast. Flavour is complex, with tart red fruits, wild yeast, vinous notes, and oak. Lots of depth to this - the oak and wild yeast are well-situated. Excellent.

On tap at Aslan Depot, pours a cloudy peachy yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out tons of chalky yeast, with pithy stone fruits, and some dank hops. Flavour is horrendous, with tons of chalky yeast, oats, and some dank hops. Way too much astringent chalkiness. This is crap.
