7.1
Appearance - 8 | Aroma - 7 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 8 | Overall - 6.5

Pours a nice orangey pink with bigly foam. Pretty good raspberry on the nose, slight lemon. Flavour is a bright raspberry with slight lemon notes and a good wheat grain backbone. Dry finish. Working very well.

Cloudy yellow body with modest foam. Plenty of turmeric on the nose, sharp and sweet, though nothing else. Flavour is a muddled mix of turmeric and grain, slightly sharp, soft chalk. Delivers what it advertises but not in any memorable way.

Pours with huge beige foam on a muddy brown body, appreciate the intensity but it's still a bit of a blunt instrument. Nice biscuit and caramel on the nose, soft and tempered by yeast notes. Flavour is mellow biscuit, soft hazelnut, slight honey hints. Good carbonation, full and smooth. Nicely done, reliable.

Poured from the tap. Clear gold with white head. Light bread malt with a decent shot of earl grey. Flavour blends quite nicely.

Muddy brown body and little foam, sweet cherry cola with some coffee on the nose. Flavoyr is sweet cherry and some good biscuit and coffee, though it's all too watery. Kind of a musty finish. Some good elements here but there is room for improvement.

Muddy brown body and little foam, watery chai coffee on the nose. Flavour is more chai coffee, deep biscuit. Modest carbonation, simple enough and not too badly made though hardly exciting.

Deep brown with a rich light brown head. Light spice and cocoa. Light spice, touch of bitterness and toast. Not bad and not too spiced.

4.4
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 4 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 4.5

On tap at Faculty, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is husky, with earthy, murky saison yeast, graininess, and maybe some diacetyl. Flavour is rough, with lots of husky grainy notes, some diacetyl, and dry yeast. This is messy and very poorly calibrated. Off the mark.

6.1
Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5

On tap at Faculty, pours a hazy pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is of full of spicy ginger, saison yeast, and cereal graininess. Flavour is dry and grainy, with gentle ginger spiciness upfront and saison yeast drying this out. A touch of esters, but it's pretty dry. Seems better than it used to be based on the older ratings.

4.8
Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 5

On tap at Faculty, pours a cloudy, opaque peachy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is full of gentle turmeric and a touch of sweetness. Flavour is a turmeric bomb, with loads of spices dominating. Not very interesting or pleasant, but it's not terrible.
