Big can pours a murky yellow white head. Nose has muddled tropicals and citrus, herbs. Flavors same. A touch saccharine. Medium full bodied. Just OK.

Can, 0.473l. Aroma of orange, grape fruit, peach and pine. Pours cloudy golden color with large soapy white head, great lacing and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts refreshing citrusy and tropical fruity with melon note, following is medicinal, herbal and biscuity, mouthfeel is rather dry, while finish is pretty bitter. Medium body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. No headache with this one…

473ml can. Pours a cloudy orange with pink hue and a medium, foamy, long lasting, white head that leaves soapy curtains of lace. Tart fruity aroma of bready wheat malt, grapefruit, guava and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of bready wheat malt, grapefruit, lemon, guava, a hint of raspberry and floral hops in a dry, tart finish. Medium body with a thick, pillowy soft texture and average carbonation. Refreshing and crushable.

Can that pours a hazy, golden colour with an amber hue. The head is big, frothy, somewhat creamy, whitish with good retention and thicker foamy lacing. Great aromas of fruity tangerines with some herbal hops coming out with time. Hints of wood even show up. The mangoes come out in the flavours with some decent dryness in the finish. Not getting much from the West Coast style, except a touch of greener-woody hops, but not piney. A very nice, refreshing, juicy IPA with good citrus, fruity and dry notes.

This stout poured a deep black colour with a creamy, brown head. Nice lacing. Scents include coffee, alcohol, roasted malts, dark toast and Melloids Cough Drop lozenges. First swig was huge in flavour. Tastes of caramel, black coffee, cocoa and sweet malts most prevalent. Finish is burnt and somewhat sweet with coffee flavours lingering.

Sample (thanks omhper!). Yellow colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is fruity, floral, some toffeeish and mild herbal tones. Flavour is fruity, some tart wooden tones with mild earthy elements. Watery IPA with a wee bit of tart/sour elements.
