473ml can. Pours a clear amber with a small, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that laces nicely. Mild aroma of bready pale malt, caramel and floral hops. Sweet flavour of toasted bready pale malt, caramel, grass and spicy hops in a crisp, dry, bitter finish. Light to medium body with an oily to watery texture and average carbonation. A hoppy, crispy boi. Solid.

Pale, bright, thin head. Spicy hop and a clean, bready malt backbone. That big sweet malt is hitting, and the spicy, melony hop is a pretty good complement to it.

473mL can, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma is restrained, with light grassiness, straw, and biscuity malt. Flavour is restrained, with gentle grassy hops, straw, and biscuity malt. Low bitterness but quite clean. Pleasant but rather boring.

Pale and slight haze, thin head. Lots of pale malt on the nose and a bit of herbaceous hop. Mild bitterness, medium sweetness. Malts slightly sticky but not a lot -not a bad malt character at all.

Flight at brewery. Pours dark brown. Aroma mainly dark roasted malts. Flavour also leans heavily into dark roasted malt and rye flavours. Really nice malt flavour, if a bit one-track.

Flight at brewery. Pours slightly hazy yellow. Aroma has citrus and pine hops with some light malts. Flavour has grapefruit citrus, a bit of resin/pine, and again some light malts. Doesn't really taste like a WC IPA per se, but not a bad IPA.

Pale gold, not much head. Sulphur, a bit of weed on the nose. Similar palate. The malt base is good but this combo of hops doesn'�t seem to work, and comes across like aged leek farts.

473mL can, pours a minimally hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma reveals plenty of oily resinous hops, some pine, a touch of citrus, and crisp biscuity malt to back. Flavour is aggressive, with plenty of floral, resinous hops, some pine, a bit of that chamomile character that Alex spotted, and an oily, biscuity finish. It's slightly rough despite being rather low on residual bitterness (for a WC), but reasonably well-calibrated. Good.

Poured from 473mL can (thanks fiulijn for grabbing). Clear blonde gold with white head. Light and floral hops that don't lose flavour, just a feint hint of pine on the finish. Would prefer the intense WC bitterness personally, but appreciating this for what it is.
