473 ml can. Pours a deep copper color with huge head. Aromas of biscuity malts, a little gingerbread, and sweet raisins. Flavors of bready malts, slightly spicy earthy hops, and golden raisins.

Cloudy, pale, just a thin head. Lime is big on the nose, with mango and lime both prominent on the palate. It's got a fairly big body but I am missing the salt. Quite tart. The chili isn't really noticeable until way after everything else is gone from the palate. So while the whole thing is rooted in a classic combo, the chili comes in too late to really make it work.

Straw colour. Medium head. Clean pale malt. More body than expected. Definitely sweet, but it's bready. Might be a touch of butter in here, so I killed my taster quickly. There's nowhere to hide in a beer like this so I couldn't take the chance.

Darkish straw colour. Just a thin head. Light pale malt nose. Drier than Bad Light (a similar beer on the menu) and has more apparent bitterness, too. But just a touch. Clean malts, off-dry finish. It's pretty good for this type of beer, though.

Sticky sweet and bubblegummy. Dull colour. Fruity. But bubblegum. Fermentation flaw, and one that absolutely does not taste right. It happens but fuck that.

Beer is spelled correctly. It does not read Pi�a, but Pina. So make of that what you will. Lots of sweet coconut and fruity hops. So good because coconut but not so much nuance...I think a hoppier IPA might actually work here.

Lots of peach. It's tart, and some sugars coming through and I think that's from the grapes. It's pretty goofy, designed to sell more than impress but it's not half-bad.

Opaque with a medium head. Pale tan. Sweetish but nice fruity note. Soft pale malts. Stone fruit, especially. Solid.

Weak clear gold body and minimal foam. Kind of a cream soda hops vibe, pine and dairy it seems. Taste is more pine and dairy, cotton candy maybe, finishing with just a bit of carbonation. One of those heavyhanded oversweetened deals.

Deep red body and some minimal foam. Nice berry character, reasonably tart. Taste is definitely sangria inspired berry, hitting that note well with okay carbonation. Adequate and straight ahead.
