473 ml can. Pours a bright amber with light head. Seems to be a mix of a pale ale and Belgian Blonde.

Pale blond colour, cloudy and dull. Timid aroma of citrus hops. It's dry and weak, and it tastes like partially fermented beer, with some hop resins, and balanced bitterness.
Not too dirty, for a Hazy, so I guess it's drinkable.

Semi-cloudy medium gold body and okay foam. Not bad citrusy hops, papaya notes, though rather subdued. Flavour is more soft papaya, breadfruit, mellow pine. Full but lacking crispness. Adequate but not memorable.

Excellent foam on a stormy cloudy pale straw body. Clean tart quince citrus on the nose, no hops though, and a little too subtle. Flavour is tart citrus, slight grain. Grain lingers and it's a little too wet, no lagery hops or smoothness. Some good elements here nonetheless.

Can. Pale green-gold colour. Thin head. Lots of fruit bursts forth on the nose. Tart, definitely going in a cider direction with this, light body, medium fruit character. Off-dry finish. The tartness is a bit funky but i can overlook it.

Can. Amber, with a bit of haze. Light smoke on the nose. On the palate, it has sweet malt up front, and light smoke in the back. Overall, though, it's a touch husky and light in the body. Needs more residual sugars to really bring out the smoke, especially at the upper end of marzen strength. A bit vegetal in there as well, so overall it's kind of a weak finish.

Dullish greyish ugly look. The aroma's nice, though, little floral kveiky stuff and a bunch of hops, a mix that doesn't showcase individual elements. But that's okay in an ISA, and it has enough body to make it work on the palate. Although a bit more bitterness might be nice. But the low bitterness does make it more sessionable, should that be the plan.

Dark amber colour, clear, with small beige head. As the colour suggests, there is some caramel flavour; the aroma on the other side is slightly more smokey, with just a touch of malt; the smoke flavour is infinitesimal, at least it adds some quality; there's a light fruity Lager hint too; the bitterness is balanced, and the final is long. It may appear to be slightly metallic.
Maybe this dark Lager needs more smoke, and they missed the opportunity to brew a crispy blond lager; but it's very enjoyable nevertheless.

Bright copper, beige head. Boozy palate of light pumpkin pie spice and harsh alcohol heat.
