Slightly hazy amber. Lots of citrusy, fruity, woody hops...an indistinct blend of bright notes that tickles the nostrils. Chewy, resiny finish though the middle is weak on the malts. Woodsy hops glide throughout. Not half bad.

Very dark brown. Aroma shows an overtoasted harsh graininess. Big wonky alcohol and fruitiness on this one...a little paint thinner and pear for fun. Sweetish overall and a slightly fudgey finish.

Cloudy reddish-amber, really fresh crystal malt aroma, like brewing day (it isn’t). Sweet, caramel/toffee character shows chocolate and crystal nuances. Some off-fruity notes hint at abbreviated fermentation but the beer is mostly quality.

Light amber, loose head. Smells oaty. Light bread with hints of date are the only good things I got, the rest was harsh astringency. Something did not come together on this one.

Don’t know if this is a series or not but I had a strawberry/rhubarb version. Hazy amber. Plasticy notes and higher alcohols on the slightly fruity nose. Very sweet - stuck or incomplete ferment. Vague fruitiness with a bit of rhubarb. Cloying. Oi.

Hazy, yellow. Light malt accent with shades of spice. Quick is right...not much to talk about nor think about and it’s gone just like that.
