On tap at Faculty, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out light piney notes, backed by dry biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with light piney hops and dry biscuity malt. Not overly ambitious, but the hop variety comes out nice. Not bad.

On tap at Faculty, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out fresh cereal malts and crisp crackery notes. Flavour is clean and crisp, with cereal malts, crisp crackery malt and some yeasty notes. Decent amount of hops to it as well, which places it slightly above par for local kolschs, which isn't saying much.

Draft - Chocolate and nutty roast. Jet brown with a decent small light brown head. Nutty, coconut and chocolate notes with a light choclate finish. No oak but some nice light roast nutty notes.

Draft - Earthy hops, fairly subtle. Hazy gold with a decent white head. Pithy citrus, light bitterness and a decent finish. Pretty bland and boring with little of the hops shining through.

Cloudy and pale. Not much head. Some yeasty note, light coriander. Has a vague spice, quite sweet, touch of pedio. Thin finish. Not coming together. And I get no Miami character at all...total misnomer.

Dull brown. No head. Not sure if the oak killed the head or what, but it’s a bad look. Chocolatey nose that would be much more expressive if it had a head. Sweet taste, sort of generic portery, not sure I’m pulling any oak and no malt nuance either Disappointing. This type of beer should be richer and more complex

Hazy light amber. Thin head. Earthy hop nose. Has a lot of earthy chinooks, nice pale malt signature. Ok, not the brightest hop but not bad. Certainly well made.

Opaque. Minty, herbal, kind of fun. Yeasty and a bit wheaty. A goofy concept they really seem to want to hang their hat on. I’m less convinced that’s a good idea, especially without a solid base beer.

Hazy blonde. Sweetish, kind of candyish malts. Not much hop. In fact, too sweet all round and not enough malt development to pull it off.
