Romans are kind of a traditional Vienna red Oktoberfest but a bit on the sweet spicy side. Flavors are similar to nose. Traditional toast comes out a bit but overall kind of mild. Slightly sweet finish. Carbonation is a tad soft. Drinkable but nothing special.

16oz can. Watery, thin stuff. No real hop character aside from some vegetal blandness. Drinks like a seltzer. Not impressive at all.

16oz can. Stylistically makes no sense. Why would anyone ever want that cheap lemon syrup/flavor/who knows what stuff into anything other than a cheap candy? Tastes like almost a reasonable base beer. Drinkable in a way, but just an odd decision.

16oz can. Some serious floaties. Has a nice overall flavor and tone. Still has a fruity, soft Mosaic sweetness, even if there is some bitterness as well. Decent enough beer, probably a little better fresh on tap.

16oz can. Untrue look. Juicy, sweet, no real finesse. 6pack level haze at best. Boring Mosaic-Citra feel. Candied peach. Not that good.
