Okay cloudy orange and a nice bit of solid creamy foam on top. Nice soft brett character on the nose, sweet pilsner hops, slight barn funk. Flavour is good chewy grain and soft yeast funk like the European ales of old; really full and just the right amount of grain sweetness and brett funk to make it memorable.

Hazy, dull tan. There's a bit of a head only. It's yeasty, just a touch sour, more estery with a hint of plastic. So kind of a mess of a base beer, and I'm not getting the shiso leaf. For something that has a strong flavour, I don't think I've ever noticed it being strong in a beer. Ok, I've only had a few shiso beers, but still.

Nice cloudy yellow body and good foam. Smells of soft cereal, slightly sweet. Taste is sweet cereal and slight corn notes, smooth and easy to drink. Nothing out of the ordinary but what it does is done well.

Nice cloudy yellow body and good foam. Soft aroma of soft sweet hops, no distinction. Tastes of mellow grain, soft hops, vague sweet pine, full smooth and easy finish. Drinkable, refreshing, good for a warm spring afternoon.

Slightly foggy deep yellow body and modest foam. Good clean piney orange on the nose, but a little too faint. Flavour is a slightly bitter pineapple, pine notes, soft chewy hoppiness, slight sweet weeds. A little oiliness to finish it off but still refreshing.

Pours a thick muddy dark brown with some pretty good solid foam. Nice strong whisky aroma, slightly metallic, maltiness in the background that ends up cloying. Taste is whisky and peatiness backed by some earthy malts. Peat and whisky working well but ends a little thin and slightly muddled. Not bad, but could be so much more.

Very nice bleach white foam on a stormily carbonated medium clear gold body. The aroma has heavy notes of yeast and banana, not very bright though. Taste is more banana, plenty of yeastiness, soft grain funk. A little cloying aftertaste though. A mixed bag.

Clear gold with a nice white head. Light funk, touch of citrus and beady. Dirty and funky with a bready note, touch of pepper. Not really my thing.

Nice hazy orange body and pretty good foam. Soft juicy mandarin orange aroma, slight wheat and pine. Flavour is soft wheatiness, juicy orange. Smooth finish. Clean but a little underwhelming.
