On tap at brewery. Pours black with beige nitro head. Aroma is almost imperceptible roasted malt. Flavour has roasted malt, dark chocolate, and coffee. It's fine as a nitro stout, but nothing too special.

Flight at brewery. Pours clear pale yellow. Aroma exists in theory, but not really in practice. Flavour is sour and salty. Getting a lot of salt and lime, but no juniper. Should probably be classified a Gose. On what planet is this like a G&T?

On tap at brewery. Pours black. Aroma has roasted malts and some woody and pine hops. Flavour has excellent balance of toasted malts, pine, and resin. A bit oily on the palate and well-carbonated. Very well-balanced. Excellent beer.

On tap at brewery. Pours murky reddish orange. Aroma a bit stale? Flavour is surprisingly bready and not that sour; vaguely cranberry but no kiwi. Tastes a bit like watered down fruit juice. Not that good.
