473mL can. Pours clear gold with small white head. Aroma is pretty fruit-forward (mango), some resin. Flavour has more resin up front than the aroma, nice tropical fruit. Definitely some booziness. Not cloying, but perhaps replaced by the candied fruit flavours; not bad per se, but dominates the profile more than I'd like.

473mL can, pours a clear bright golden with a small white head. Aroma is bright, with lots of tropical fruits -- especially mango and guava as advertised -- with plenty of resinous hops, some sugars, and sticky orange marmalade. Flavour is quite sweet, with plenty of sweet tropical fruits, orange marmalade, some booze (more than I'd expect for 9.5%), and resinous hops. Too sweet, too much orange marmalade, but there's some nice hoppiness and clarity to it. It's good, but a bit too sweet and unbalanced.

Golden and bright. Thin head. Overripe fruit on the nose. On the palate, light and peachy. Soft malt. The fruit isn't horrible, that mango note comes through a bit, and it's not overripe. It finishes sweet, and not particularly boozy.

Dark blond colour, almost golden, with chill haze, and compact head. Aroma of malt, mild, bready. Bready malt base, robust bitterness, hop resins, but there are two elements out of place: a quite degree of acidity, and very strong alcohol, more than most ~10% beer I had in a while. It's ok, it's a boozer, I wouldn't get there again.

Dark amber colour; the head disappears quite quickly. Aroma of candi sugar, roses, alcohol, a bit perfumey. Good body, it's moderately sweet; caramel flavour, without much malt depth; the yeast profile is mildly spicy, and fortunately it's not the common American/Belgian yeast; the alcohol is a bit too evident. Overall, if not very complex, at least it's clean. Good.

330mL can, pours a clear dark amber with a tiny beige head. Aroma brings out toasted caramel, Belgian yeast, toasted chestnuts, and bready malt. Flavour is moderately sweet, with toasted cherries, caramel, bready malt and some brown sugar. Not an authentic quad, but it's a nice malty strong ale that's well-balanced enough. Solid.
