This is one is a 5% ABV written on can. Looks like there is a new version with 5.6% ABV now, so going up in alcohol. Fairly clean, copper colour with a nice big frothy, creamy warm-beige head, good stay and leaving creamy-foamy lacing. Roasted and chocolate malt nose, mild and soft. The taste shows a little more of the burnt barley, but again - very light with enough hops in the finish to cut this slightly dry. All-around, a nice, easy-drinking porter (or light stout).

Clean golden colour with a white frothy head, decent retention and some dirty streak left on the brew. Grassy hop aromas over mild straw malts. The taste shows the cereal, sweet malt base with some well-blended grassiness, with a little spiciness like Saaz. The dryness is not too crazy, but does build up. A little haze comes in the last pour. Kind of a nice, stronger Pilsner-style beer.

Peach essence nose with mild sourness. Slightly unfiltered, light-golden colour with a fizzy white cap, average stay and minimal lacing, but a ring of small bubbles. The taste shows a little more of the sour notes, with the peach essences in the base. Not getting much of the green tea in all of this, but might not be able to sleep later. I am sure it does balance this brew not being too fruity. At last pour, gets a little hazier, and about a dozen pieces of something goes to the bottle of my glass. Looks like green tea dried leaves. It does seem at this point to tame the peaches, and give a slight touch of tannins, hints of bitterness, dryness in the finish. A decent fruity sour light beer.

On tap at Tooth and Nail, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out a mix of spicy clove, banana esters and citrusy hops. Flavour is way too estery for me, with lots of banana, spicy clove, and citrusy hops. I guess it's well-made; I just don't care for this style. Too much banana and I don't like how the hops complement it. Not for me.

On tap at Tooth and Nail, pours a clear copper with a medium off-white head. Aroma is pretty old school in the hop department, with some bitter piney hops and dry bready caramel malt in true English fashion. Flavour is much the same, with old school, bittering hops, a little pine cone, and English bready malt. Clean and crisp, so it's well-made but not all that interesting.

On tap at Tooth and Nail, pours a hazy golden blonde with a medium white head. Aroma brings out lots of doughy malt from the Belgian yeast, a touch of spiciness, and a light floral character. Flavour is clean and crisp, with biscuity malt, gentle floral notes, and doughy malt. Barely any estersβ€”it has decent control of the Belgian yeast. Competent but nothing exciting.
