473 ml can. Pours a hazy amber with moderate head. Aromas of honey, a bit of candi sugar, Belgian yeast, and soft toasted malts. Harsher flavors follow same. Bitter finish. Quite heavy.

473mL can. Pours black with a tan head. Roast, chocolate, and caramel on the nose. Flavour has toasted bread, some dark chocolate, dry dark sugars; good malt expression. Nice hoppy bite on the finish. Solid body. Nice oatmeal stout.

473 ml can. Pours a deep reddish brown with full head. Aromas of dark fruit, caramel, soap and soft sweet toasted malts. Flavors of minerals, dry dark fruit and soft roasted malts. Not really sure what this is.

Poured from the tap. Hazy blonde with small white head. Muted tropical hops, feint hops burn, a touch yeasty, but very muted overall.

Poured from the tap. Bartender says there are multiple versions of this (as I saw on Untapped). Clear yellow gold with no head. Tons of guava, feint passionfruit. Seems more like juice was poured in this. Guava bomb covers everything else up. Under carbonated, as it warms, gives off a bitter medicinal note that overtakes everything.

Lots of raspberry. Good stout base, the berry chocolate thing is solid. It’s good but not better than their regular oatmeal stout, which is awesome.

473mL can, pours a hazy bright golden orange with a small white head. Nose is full of bubblegum, fumes, and candi sugar. Flavour is full of bubblegum, bitter astringency, candi sugar, and biscuity malt. Chaotic floral notes, bubblegum, and astringent bitterness.

Hazy, amber, medium head. The aroma has a phenolic character, some esters. On the palate, it's thin, some phenols. Relatively clean. Light fruitiness, and a hint of plastic. Not coming together though - it's sticky and vague. I don't get it.

Poured from 473mL can (pkg 29 Oct 2024). Hazed gold with small white head. Belgian yeast, very estery and floral, bitter and sweet simultaneously. Meh.
