Can. An unclear dark brown beer topped by a minimalistic beige head. Sweetish aroma with marshmallow, brown sugar, chocolate and some biscuity notes. It's sweet and full-bodied, lightly carbonated, with quite a lot of biscuity flavors. Marshmallow, cookie dough, brown sugar and chocolate in the flavor. Lasting finish. A bit sweet this one, but it's nice anyway. 221231

Huh. Pours a super gloppy orange milkshake from a can, eventually separates with the pumpkin solids settling at the bottom of the glass. Weird. Probably the most legitimately pumpkin beer I've ever had, the flavor is actually quite good, nicely but not overly spiced and you can taste the actual pumpkin. Good but unique beer.

Can sample at a Yana's tasting at Max's place. Muddy orange-red. Lots of banana and guava, some melon, like a smoothie, sweet and slightly sourish. Not my thing.

Can: Poured a murky orange with pinkishness, bubble orange creamsicle head loads of carbonation. Aroma is very banana, guava, fruity. Taste is light sour tart, but then the bananas and guava come blasting in.

Can. Hazy juicy orange, medium yellow head, nonlasting. Strong and ripe fruity nose, lots of baana, energy drink nose. Moderate sweetness, lots of bananas, gently citrusy. Nice smoothie, not really much beer-like. Lasting citrusy aftertaste. Thick body and full - smoothie.

(Can) Pours opaque amber looking like pineapple juice with a small white head. Amazing aroma of pineapple and banana milkshake. Full bodied, smooth, creamy with fine carbonation. Extraordinary taste too. Pineapple and banana. Nice and tangy. Creamy milkshake taste. A hint of cornflakes. Very nice, and a long way from the taste profile of most beers.
