Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 7 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 5.5
Soft clear copper body, smells of vague woody malty notes and good lager hops. Flavour is bright lager hops with a hint of malt. Lighter than a normal Vienna but it works. Crisp finish. Not bad, has its charms.

Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 6.5
On tap at Howl, pours a cloudy bright pink amber with a small white head. Aroma reveals the elderflower upfront, with a touch of tart raspberry. Flavour is more expressive on the raspberries upfront, accentuated by the flowers. Dry and fruity, with just enough floral character. Not bad.

On tap at Howl, pours a cloudy dull yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out rustic saison yeast and a touch of grape must. Flavour is dry and grape-y, with rustic saison yeast and very subtle grape. Clean and dry. Not bad.

Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 4.5
On tap at Howl, pours a cloudy muddled orange amber with a small beige head. Aroma brings out a very earthy and cardboardy hop character, with bready malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with earthy notes, stale notes, and bready malt. The hops are not properly utilized. Not too pleasant.

On tap at Howl, pours a clear orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out dry bready malt and some earthy notes. Flavour is strangely spicy and herbal, with the chaga coming out more pronouncedly. Dry and herbal, with a medicinal character. Odd.

On tap at Howl, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out a bit vegetal, with caramel and bready notes. Flavour is fairly on-point, with caramel, bready malt and a touch of a herbal character. Clean and easy, but not particularly interesting. Decent.
