Hazy reddish color; creamy head. There is a bad aroma of fresh printed magazines, glue; and light fruits. In the flavor, some bitter side clashed with the tart/fruity elements. Confused. Bad.

Hazy golden color; creamy head. The rosemary aroma reminds me a roasted chicken more than a beer. It seems a very solid Ale, with good malt, some sweetness, good hopping, unfortunately the rosemary (spruce) is so out of place. 10 years ago, following an ancient recipe, I brewed a beer with rosemary from my garden, it was undrinkable. Controversial, and I decide for thumbs down, as I did 10 years ago.

Black color. Solid Stout, quite Imperial, on the minus side there is some glue aroma, bread dough; on the plus side there is an unusual cookie touch. Good.

Hazy amber color; creamy head. Breadish aroma, maybe also with the sunflower seeds. Good Ale, solid moutfeel, good malt, medium sweetness, with a different bread touch than other beers, and light honey. Correct bitterness. Strange but not bad.

Black color, creamy head. Mild aroma of liquorice, carobs, talc, perfume (eau de cologne). Flavor of roasted malt, mint, liquorice, chemicals… wrong. Undrinkable for me.

Hazy chestnut color. It’s a very strange brew, with strong caramel aroma and flavor. But also light vegetables aroma, soup aroma, spicy flavor, cookies, vegetables, chocolate. Weird!

Hazy dark amber color; creamy head. Nice hoppy aroma, fruity, strange grapefruit, horse barn. Strong caramel flavor, medium sweetness, good hopping, light citrus fruitness, hop resins. Strong ending bitterness, a bit harsh. Good.

Hazy amber color. It really smells like Bloody Mary: tomato, spices and light celery; I forget that it’s supposed to be beer, the aroma is nice. Some caramel flavor, medium-low sweetness, quite strong hopping, with a good pepper presence. I’m usually against these mixes, but I have to admit that this one is an interesting experience. If it was not so bitter at the end it would be better.
