Nice strong sweet coffee on the nose, good dark brown body and okay foam. Flavour is good sweet smooth coffee, soft lager fullness. Just a little watery. Much like a dunkelweizen with cocoa. Enjoyable.

Soft sweet cherry on the nose, good deep pink body and modest foam. Flavour is a very tart cherry, sour for sure, lingering dog hair feel. Sour beer done right, cherry could be stronger though. Not your usual sweet fruity sugar sour.

Murky brown body with modest foam, really faint sweet malt on the nose. Flavour is good bitter piney hops, soft chewy caramel. The whole thing is too watery though, something like this should be thick and oily. Needs work, halfway there.

Cloudy yellow body and good foam, very faint sweet hops on the nose. Flavour is murky grain, some sweet hops, chewy pine. Good oiliness, okay carbonation. A bit subtle but clean and drinkable.

Looks like brown water, spices are vague at best on the nose and reminiscent of an old man's watery soap. Flavour is watery molasses and diluted brown sugar - where are the spices? Ichh, a watery mess at best. At least you can't detect the alcohol.

Poured too high so it looks like dark water with a titch of foam, smells well of dark cookies and sweet chocolate biscuit all over the place. Flavour is lots of biscuity cookies, chewy sweetness in all the right amounts. Full and dry finish thanks to the heavy cookie presence. Enjoyable in many ways.

Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 4.5
Soft gold body with little foam, smells of sweet hops and there's no sign of the cucumber. Flavour is all muddy cucumber, mouthfeel isn't crisp. A rather uninspired effort.

Soft wheat grain on the nose, weak yellow body with almost no foam. Flavour is good banana notes and wheat grain. Mouthfeel is crisp and full. An okay hefe.

Soft fruitiness on the nose, has milky off-pink body with small foam. Flavour is very sweet and very soft fruit notes. Mouthfeel is a little bitter and cloying on the back end. Unbalanced and sugary.
Deanf (9781) reviewed Pineapple Haze from Monkey 9 Brewing 6 years ago
Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 4 | Flavor - 6 | Texture - 6 | Overall - 5.5
Sweet hops on the nose, maybe some vague pineapple. Has a cloudy orange body with minimal foam. Flavour is middling sweet hops, can't detect the pineapple. Mouthfeel is crisp enough. It's not bad, a little disjointed even when ignoring the lack of pineapple.
