375ml bottle. Clear, amber colour with small, frothy, half-way lasting, moderately lacing, white head. Minimally toasty, bready, malty aroma, hints of rye crisp bread, minimally soapy, hoppy overtones. Taste is mildly bitter, earthy-grassy and minimally piney hoppy, minimally toasty, bready malty basis, hints of rye crisp bread, subtle caramel malty sweetness; lingering, dry finish.
Watery texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium to fine, prickly carbonation.
Light and a bit cautious, clean, refreshing, drinkable - not too bad.

A replacement for Cascade Premium? Is that retired? A replacement for Cascade Premium? Bottle. Clear golden amber with a cm of white head. Aroma of grainy crackers, hints of citrus, spices. Dryish with crackers and a decent spicy bitter bite. Not bad at all - notably less meek than many previous Cascade offerings.

Pours amber with an oily white head. Aroma of rice and malt. Taste has a lot more flavor than I’d expect, grainy, some yeast. Palate has toasted malt on the nose, lingering. Quite good actually.

Can. Black with a cm of tan head. Aroma of roasted malt, chicory, chocolate, caramel. Medium bodied, smooth. Someone knows what they're doing here: the chocolate is bittersweet and just fills out the palate and supports the roasted flavours (which IMHO are a bit mean in normal Cascade Stout). Weedy bitter end. This is rather well done and - perhaps not all that surprisingly - reminiscent of Young's Double Chocolate Stout. I'll drink more of this.

375ml can into schooner glass. From BWS, Glen Innes. Pours a crystal clear golden yellow with zero head and a few sticky bubbles. Faint aroma of apples. Mouthfeel is lightly sparkling, finish is sweet at first then drying. Passionfruit is noticeable but mostly tastes like a supercharged cider.
