Soft bubble gum aroma, has good orange body with modest foam on top. Flavour is mellow smooth hops with a hint of caramelly grain. Mouthfeel is full and smooth. This is decently brewed but unexceptional.

The aroma is peach a light grain, some soft wheat dough. Has good smooth gold body with soft foam on top. Flavour is soft peachy citrus, some strong cerealy grain. Mouthfeel is full and smooth. This is a nice saison, though I'd prefer more grain character.

On tap at Backroads, pours an opaque, murky pinkish peachy colour of some sort with a small white head. Aroma is loaded with guava, oranges, and tropical fruit in general, with plenty of pith, and some lacto. Flavour is full of tart tropical fruit, revealing the guava especially, with a citrus pith character and some mango. Tart and fruity. This is a fun beer.

On tap at Backroads, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma is rather murky and confused, with earthy hops, a little bready malt, and murky crusty character. Not dialled in all that well. Okay.

On tap at Backroads, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out straw and crackery notes. Flavour is crisp and clean, with straw, cereal notes, and biscuity malt. Clean and crushable, but it's a kolsch... uninteresting.

On tap at Backroads, pours a fairly clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma reveals rustic saison yeast, a touch of esters, and a touch of candi sugar. Flavour brings out the rustic saison yeast, with gentle esters, candi sugar, and a bit of champagne-like effervescence. The yeast is dialled in very well here. Good stuff.

On tap at Backroads, pours a hazy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma is gently fruity, with light citrus, some stone fruits, and biscuity malt. Flavour is bright, with a nice stone fruit character, subdued hops, and crisp biscuity malt. There's a nice fruitiness to this, with a more interesting palate than most golden ales. Good stuff.
