473mL can. Pours a hazy dull gold with a white head. Gin botanicals and peppery saison yeast on the nose. Flavour has plenty of dry, herbal juniper, a peppery saison yeast expresssion, some citrus, and a nice dry grassy hopping. Nice, the combination of juniper, Saaz, and the yeast work well here.

473 ml can. Pours a dull gold with full head. Aromas of wax crayons, lemon, fruity gin, a bit of Belgian yeast, and sharp wheaty malts. Flavors are heavy on gin and acrid wheaty malts, with noticeable salt and some bitter citrus/lime.

Pinkish and hazy. Light prickly pear, moderate acidity, decent, seems like more hop than usual for this style.

Poured from 568mL can. Clear yellow gold with small white head. Terp aroma lingers out of the can on opening. Subdued resin and grapefruit hops, light biscuit malt, touch of booze. Pretty clean despite the oats used. The terps seem gimmicky and don’t add anything to the base. Just an okay DIPA with some fake terp aroma added.

Their description is accurate. Heffy at 11. Enjoyed, but a bit too rich for me. I might enjoy it as a dessert.

20oz @ Alex's after the 1st time when storage search defeated me 🤬
Aroma: dark malts, a bit licorice, sweetness, and grass notes.
Taste: along the same lines.
Overall: enjoyable.

Poured from 568mL can. Hazed dark orange gold with off-white head. Lots of banana esters, maybe verging on too much, soft spice and booze, wheat underlay. Decent.

Gold, maybe a slight haze. Thick head from the side pour. Ok that’s a really pristine dortmunder aroma, full of biscuity, bready pale malt with just a hint of herbaceous hop. Palate similarly leads with comforting waves of satisfying pale malt. Balanced bitterness, again a slight hop note makes this exceptionally moreish, which is the mark of a great dortmunder. This is top dort, the kind you drink too many of when eating a kebab outside the haupbahnhof.
S&O nailed this style in a collab with Dageraad a few years ago, so this is either their own version or a tweaked recipe (my notes suggest it’s got more bitterness this time but also it was on a lukr so that could affect things) but it stands that Steel & Oak has absolutely nailed this style

473ml can. Pours an opaque dark brown, almost black with a small, creamy, short lived, beige head that leaves sticky curtains of soapy lace. Aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate, nuts, earth and coffee. Sweet flavour of roasted malt, rye, cocoa and toffee in a dry, bitter coffee finish. Medium body with a slightly creamy, smooth, oily texture and soft carbonation. Tasty and easy to put back.
