Lightly unfiltered, light golden-yellow colour with a big frothy white head, good retention and thick, foamy lacing. A nice spiced nose with a light herbal touch, and hints of fruitiness. A light-bodied beer with a wet mouthfeel. Some mineral notes in the taste with a bit of citrus and grassiness. A good, crushable Session IPA that is overall not too light all-around, and offers some kind of kick.

Dark brown. Not much head. Smells like it's going to be kinda thin and coffeeish. Some chocolate. Yeah, it's on that drier, lighter side, of stout. Imperial Oatmeal but you get some imperial-level alcohol, and no oat. Still a decent beer, with some caramel accents and respectable complexity of dark sugars, but feels underwhelming nevertheless.

Pours a lighter golden colour with good carbonation, a white cap, average stay and some foamy lacing. Aromas are a nice blend of herbal hops and cereal malts. The taste shows a good mix of sweeter malts, some cereal notes and mild, fresh hoppy herbs. A crisp mouthfeel with a light drying finish. A really nice, refreshing Pilsner with a good balance of cereal malts and herbal hops.

Hazy, pale. Medium head. There's a good grapefruit note here, albeit artificial, along some biscuity pale malt. On the palate, medium bitterness, some herbaceous hop expression. The grapefruit here seems incongruous - for whatever reason it's not playing well with the hops. Maybe a bit too much alcohol character in that finish as well. Not bad, but could have a better structure.

Pours a slight, unfiltered golden colour with a bunch of very tiny particles floating around, a white bubbly cap, average stay and a foamy lacing ring. Aromas of spicy Pils malt with pine notes, a little caramel malt and a tad citrus. The taste shows West Coast with the resin-caramel blend, and thinner with the Pale Ale factor. A wet mouthfeel with some good dryness in the end. A very nice pintable Pale Ale with the West Coast-style and a tad spiciness from the Pils side.

LIghtly hazed, golden-amber colour with a big, creamy-frothy warm-white head, good retention and sticky-foamy lacing with some creaminess. Aromas are a fresh blend of herbs and pine notes, with the caramel malt base, and a touch of citrus. A little creamy in the mouthfeel, with a nice slow drying finish. Flavours are a mix of grassiness, grapefruit zest, pine needles and that caramel undertone. Quite a pleasant, old school DIPA that goes down, very nicely.

Clean, amber colour with a warm beige head, average stay and lots of foamy-soapy lacing streaks. Big malty aromas with a blend of caramel, and spicy one - almost like rye, all mixed with some grassy hops. A wet mouthfeel with some decent dryness in the finish. The caramel malts really show in the taste, with less hoppiness to help out. Thankfully, the drying end is nice here and a tad wood comes out. A decent California Common that packs a malty, caramel punch.
