Poured from 473mL can. Clear pale orangey pink with super quickly dissipating white head. Sweet raspberry juice over the apple. Basic, fine.
Surprisingly pleasant and good for what it is. Good fruity character, nice carbonation and body. A bit too sweet, probably.

Bright golden colour with very tiny transparent particles. The head is white and leaves dirty lacing spots and a ring around the brew. Straw malt base, with banana notes from wheat it seems. Sweet malt and banana in the taste with a lingering flavour. Not as refreshing as expected, as written on label. Says rice in ingredients, but cannot feel it as opposed to wheat sweetness, which is not written in ingredients. Not offensive as a light lager, but not one to have another.

Now under Magnotta Wunder Weisse, pouring a hazy golden-yellow colour with a frothy warm cap, good stay and some foamy lacing. Malty nose with the banana notes and cloves. Silky smooth mouthfeel with enough hops to have a dryer finish for the style, and not syrupy. Flavours have the spices, hints of bananas and some mineral base. Maybe some mild rustiness. A fairly drinkable Hefeweizen.

Can that pours a dark brown colour with copper highlights. Big frothy light-beige head, great stay and mild lacing. Roasted malt aromas with some nice coffee at first. Then, dark fruit and maple syrup come out. Wet, oily mouthfeel with a nice dryness lingering in the finish. Nutty taste with the burnt malts, caramel and nice hops blending things. A good regular porter with nicely balanced hops in the end.

This porter poured a deep black colour with a creamy, light brown head. Nice lacing. Scents include toffee, roasted malts and nuts. First swig was delicious. Maltyness, toffee and lightly sweet, with roasted light coffee flavours. Finish is roasted malt and coffee lingering.

Can that pours a very light golden-yellow colour, clear with a fizzy-bubbly white head that dissipates averagely, leaving some bubble around the ring. The aromas are balanced between some light sweet malts and some cereal grain notes. More of these cereal grain malts appear in the taste, lingering nicely. This is actually a decently brewed light lager.

This IPA poured a deep, very dark amber colour with a creamy, light tan head. Medium lacing. Scents include burnt toast, caramel, molasses and a little coffee. First swig was nice and roasty with flavours of coffee, caramel and burnt toast. Finish is almost smokey with a little sweetness and lots of burnt! Delicious.
