Flight pour at Darby's. Pours murky dark brown with a beige head. Aroma has coffee and roasted malts. Flavour has a nice roasted malt and coffee profile. Not a whole lot else going on, but it's an okay porter.

Flight pour at Darby's. Pours clear gold with a white head. Sweet malts on the nose. Flavour has a sweet malty base with some crisp pine and stonefruit accents. Nice body, but shallow flavour profile. Not great.

5oz pour at The Magnet. Pours murky brown with a foamy beige head. Grassy malts with some very subtle brown bread malts on the nose. Flavour has bread crust malts and dry grass, bitter on the finish. A bit haphazard; okay.

Pale pink and opaque. Thin head, tart, quite a bright prickly pear character. Nice saline finish brings out the fruit well. They did a great job on this.

473 ml can. Pours an hazy orange/pink with full head. Aromas of seaweed, salt, gyoza, and wheat. Flavors follow same with additional watermelon, and cloying over ripe and earthy red berries. Started OK but flavors just aren’t for me.
