Dark brown color, near black, apparently headless. Mild aroma, mildly roasted malts and yeast cake. Lowly carbonated, for a soft mouthfeel, it’s rather dry, with a blend of roasted malts and light coffee, lightly biscuity in the end, but I wouldn’t have guessed "oak" if I didn’t knew, although there is an alien note. It seems mellower in the final, more bready, with some roasted nuts.
Ok.

Hazy golden color with compact head. The aroma is poor, not enough malt or hop, instead some yeast, foot, manure, wet paper; metallic; later it develops some more orthodox hop. Lean body, delicate malt flavor, a bit bready; the hop job is rough, they extracted too much tannin, so besides the expected resins there is some astringency, tannic bitterness, and a mildly metallic finish.
Not bad, but it requires some tuning.

Murky yellow color. Fresh aroma of mint, with some basil and nettles, a bit footy. Muddy wheat beer, with some bread and toothpaste, medicine, and yeast.
It’s a weird beer, for the third time; I hope it doesn’t become a sensation in Vancouver.

Cloudy blond color. The aroma is a bit too yeasty. The flavor is wheaty, bready, somebody may find the sweetness excessive, but I like it, and it has a nice fruity touch from the yeast, I suppose; then some yeast again; low bitterness.
For a starter beer, acceptable.
