On tap at White Sails. Has a nice bright white head and good cloudy pink body with some brown hues. Smells of really nice fruit sweetness, not overpowering and there's good guava to back it up. Flavour is good fresh sour guava and some raspberry hanging in the back. This is reasonably crisp and also has a dry character, not wet at all. This is a very impressive low alcohol fruit beer.

On tap at the brewery. Has a nice nearly black dark brown body and just a little bit if beige foam on top. Soft sweey coffee on the nose. Flavour is more sweet coffee, roasted barley, and plenty of sugar. Seems watery but not excessively so. Pretty good, nice depth.

On tap at the brewery. Has a nice medium gold body with bright white foam of a casual fashion on top. Soft juicy hops on the nose, couls be stronger. Flavour is bright candy hops, very sweet, no malt behind it.Cloying on the mouth, heavy hop oil not helping anything. A bit too big without the alcohol payoff, needs more subtlety.

On tap at the brewery. Had s foggy orange gold body and decent bright white head. Good sofy bright grain aroma, white, medium. Flavour is strong sugar, sweet grain, caramel notes. Medium finish, a little bit boozy. Not bad but rathet heavy, and could be drier for a saison.

On tap at the brewery. Aroma is soft malt. Has decent brown and okay blonde foam. Flavour is okay brown malts, some medium amber grain in there. Palate is full enough, middling crispness. An okay brown ale, serviceable.

On tap at the brewery. Aroma is soft malts and little else. Has a dark brown body with a bit of creamy head. Flavour is good chocolate and coffee notes, no idea about the other stuff. Palate is good and crisp, full on the mouth. It's a nice experiment, could be more refined.
