473mL can. Pours clear blonde with a white head. Big resinous pine and chewy malts on the nose. Flavour has a crisp and bitter hop expression, very piney and resinous, and a chewy biscuit malt backbone. Great west coast IPA.

568mL can. Pours black with a beige head. Roasted malts, some nuts, and light whiskey on the nose. Flavour has a pretty solid roast character, whiskey, some earthy coffee, a bit nutty. Questionable concept, but turned out quite nicely.

Beautiful dark brown, more of a toasty, nutty aroma. Lightish body for style. Light nutty, mild roasted coffee, some chocolatey richness to the body in the end. A bit of alcohol as well. Good flavour development but this is begging for some richer sugars. It’s a good beer.
But this idea, if amped up to baller levels like 14%, would be another level of class, and a base for phenomenal things, like a four year heaven hill or willett residency.

Pale gold, he fades immediately. Lightly sweet grainy palate. Lacks proper carbonation

Opaque, slightly peachy, thin head. Moderate bitterness, nice bit of galaxy, a touch of stone fruit juiciness.

Opaque, pale. Has a nice floral accent, peachy notes, a splash of alcohol. Light hop burn, decent malt, as they usually have.

Cloudy, good bitterness, guava, peach fruity hop notes. Malts are lean, not my ideal balance.

Light, some bitterness, light lime and saline. Simple quaffer, as designed.
