Dark amber colour. Caramel aroma and flavour, some Lager esters, a bit too earthy; it has a light residual sweetness, low bitterness. Balanced beer, although I don't fully unbderstand why targeting a Steam beer nowadays.

Dull dark amber color, looks like dirty water or old tea; hazy. Light smell of bread. Dry and weak mouthfeel, some flavour of stale bread, possibly a trace of butter; metallic finish.
Boring and rather lame.

Hazy amber color. Pukery smell, wet paper. Dry mouthfeel, flavour is along the same lines with smell. Good grief, I can't drink this.

Hazy pale blond color. Light straw aroma and flavor, quite shallow, with very low bitterness. This could be a macro Lager, no difference (besides the high gravity brewing thing). Boring.

The color is dark, almost black. The aroma reveals some dark roasted malt and some coffee. Smooth and overly carbonated mouthfeel, some wet cardboard. Some sour milk in the final, dry and weak.
Ok Porter, but it feels like something is not right.

Dark amber to mahogany color. It has a decent flavor and aroma from dark malts; the hopping is a bit resiny but not prominent. It's a decent Brown Ale, a bit more resiny/hoppy than the average.

Hazy blond color. Weak but not crisp; I don't really appreciate those mild grainy malts; no hop character. In truth, I was expecting more.

Hazy blond color. Some aroma of vegetables, celery. Lean mouthfeel, anonymous malt base, light butter, vegetable hops.
Mediocre.

Hazy dark mahogany color. Puckery aroma and flavour, roasted malts, strong alcohol feeling, quite strong Band Aid and chemicals too. A trainwreck.

Draught at the brewery
Hazy amber color. Although I'm not just looking for West Coast IPAs, I still can't appreaciate such beer that has puckery character, paper, wet cardboard, alcohol feeling, herbaceous hops, no quality hops or malt. Didn't like this.
