Brown, medium head. This smells off. Some roast, but an odd fruitiness. Low bitterness. Yeah this is… not sure. A bit nutty. Not egregious but not hitting.

Pale, straw, med head. Spicy hop. Clean, light hop, all in all it’s not bad. A bit light but balanced.

The newer version is considerably better, the diacetyl bomb is gone. Better and drinkable but not memorable

Great heaving foam on a light gold body with stormy carbonation. I mean, what else do you want man for this appearance. Heavy yeast aroma, some grain, a little wild which is nice. Taste is honey and cracker, soft and sweet with good carbonation and a slightly bitter finish. So simple, so easy, and so well executed - we should all be so lucky if this was normal.

Bright gold, stark white head. Light fruity nose. Vague fruit, light malt mid, medium spicy bitterness in finish

Good foam on a deep copper body. Smell is nice mellow cereal, soft biscuit. Taste is good cereal and some more biscuit, soft caramel. Ends carbonated but not as smooth as a real bitter. Still, okay, low abv appreciated.

Muddy brown and minimal foam, very faint boozy brown sugar on the nose. Flavour is bready biscuit, cardboard, nothing but a wet and boozy aftertaste. This one needs work.

Clear gold with little foam, soft sweet wet grain on the nose that barely rises above the smell of the hand sanitizer I just used. Flavour is chewy sweet hops, sugary grain, cloying finish. Seems oversweet.

The aroma is nice chewy hops and malts, a good pale ale vibe, has murky orange body with strong carbonation of small bubbles and modest foam. Flavour is fruity malts and sharp hops, round and full. Mouthfeel is very crisp and oily. This is a competent pale ale, very nice to drink.

The aroma is weak nothingness, maybe some barley if I inhale too deeply. Has boring dark brown body with no foam. Flavour is cola-ish dark grain and some vague sweetness. Watery mouthfeel with some modest carbonation. Everything in this is too weak and watery, everything needs to be amped up.
