Can to tulip.
Appearance: murky amber to copper color with a thin cap of a little white foamy head which slid off delicately to leave some super light lace
Aroma: lots of mangoes and peaches flanked by a lot of citrusy hops; smooth crackery malts
Flavor: seems to blend all the previously noted aromas; subtle aftertaste of the mangoes and peaches
Texture: about medium bodied - maybe a touch under, between being a sipper and some kind of sessionability about it, somewhat smooth and finishes with the mango and peachy sweetness
Overall: just seems like this brewer loves to do overly sweet beers all around, this one, well, like I said with the others, maybe again if the recipe was modified.

Can to snifter.
Appearance: dark brown close to black in the color with a one finger off-white to khaki foamy head which dissipated fairly quick to leave super subtle lace
Aroma: maple syrup, roasted coffee beans, blueberry sweetness, vanilla and milk sugar, milk chocolate
Flavor: does a decent effort to combine the prior mentioned aromas fairly sweet but seems to let the roastiness be a little more subdued; pretty sweet in the aftertaste with the vanilla, maple syrup and blueberries really showing some strength
Texture: medium bodied, I believe it's a sipper, close to being cloying, finishes somewhat sticky sweet with the maple syrup and blueberries
Overall: I feel like there's something good supposed to be here but once again, the sweetness seems to overdo the other aspects, maybe again if the recipe was modified.

Can to tulip.
Appearance: semi-burnt orange to almost copper/auburn color with a two finger white foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: big sweet tropical fruits, milk sugar and soft clean malts
Flavor: very sweet all around; aftertaste is of cream and tropical fruits
Texture: light to medium bodied, between sessionable and being a sipper; extremely smooth along my tongue; finishes extremely creamy and tropical fruity
Overall: not exactly very balanced, I would have wanted some bitterness to help the strength of the sweet creaminess to slow down but I guess that's what the kids want these days, right? Hmmmm, maybe again if the recipe was modified a bit

Can to snifter.
Appearance: black in the color with a one finger tan foamy head which slid off nicely to leave some messy lace
Aroma: cinnamon, vanilla, brown sugar, roasted malts, variety of different chocolates, coffee sweetness and coffee roastiness
Flavor: blends all the prior noted aromas sweetly and roasty with a kind aftertaste of the coffee, chocolate and vanilla
Texture: medium bodied with a good sipping quality about it; somewhat smooth along the tongue with some cinnamon abrasion; mild finish of dryness, roast and coffee sweetness
Overall: I'd say Oozelfinch did what they said they would do with this and I would return to this.
