473mL can, pours a lightly hazed golden with a small white head. Aroma has some champagne-like notes, with floral hops and seltzery notes. Flavour is also quite seltzery, with champagne yeast, floral hops, and dry toasted grains. Very dry, seltzery finish. Not bad, but there’s not much vibrance or character here.

473mL can. Pours clear blonde with a white head. Nose is dry and floral, a bit soapy. Flavour is quite dry with lots of champagne yeast and a fairly floral, soapy hop expression. I like the base, but not a fan of the hop expression. And kind of lacking in character in general. It's okay.

473mL can. Pours dark brown with a beige head. Loads of coffee and nutty malts on the nose. Flavour has a pretty good level of coffee and malts that are very nutty and bready. Great coffee dark lager.

473mL can. Pours murky brown with a beige head. Dry gingerbread and sugar crystals on the nose. Flavour has dry bread crusts, fairly dialed back gingerbread; pretty dry throughout. Good body. Not bad, I was expecting something much more gimmicky, but this is a decent brown ale with nice gingerbread accents.

On tap at Stillwell Freehouse. Pours hazy blonde with a white head. Light grapefruit and stonefruit, some dank must on the nose. Flavour has citrus, mostly peels, little pith, thin grass. The nose was better than the palate; inoffensive overall, but not excellent.

On tap at Battery Park. Pours clear pale blonde with a white head. Biscuit malts and straw on the nose. Flavour has tons of straw and biscuit malts. Good level of carbonation. There's something a bit soft, maybe skunky, in the profile, but generally okay.

On tap at Battery Park. Pours hazy pale blonde with a white head. Semi-dry juicy apples and a weird yeast character on the nose. Flavour has more of the wine-like yeast expression up front, some apple skins, and a semi-dry juiciness throughout. It's interesting, but not really working for me.

473mL can, pours black with a medium tan head. Aroma has a nice soft oatiness and a touch of dry cocoa powder. Flavour is dry and hearty, with dry oats, a touch of cocoa, and toasted malt. Hearty, clean, and drinkable. Nothing special but well-made.
