Draught at Arts and Craft: clearish gold with white head. Aroma is grapefruit and hints of other fruitiness. Punchy with some bitterness. Fine.

12oz can from Half Time. Deep purple pour, ring of light pink head. Tart, fruity aroma, berries. Taste is mostly berries, light tropical notes, not as tart as the aroma would lead you to believe.

Picked this up at Foxtrot Market downtown and enjoyed at work on a balmy December evening. Not too bad, the brewer describes pretty much everything that's going on with this one and there's nothing my simpleton palete can add to it.

Draught at BGH: pours clear with little head. Aroma is lime, coriander, minerals. Tastw is soapy, spicy, coriander, cardamom. Not a great combo. Mediocre.

Damn boy, completely different from the Is/Was version. Delicious and endlessly wild. Left

Can shared. Thanks Jon! Pours a clear, straw gold with a fizzy white head that dissipates. Light grain aromas with mild corn sweetness present. Similar on the palate and bit too sweet for me for the style. Light sweet grain with a crisp finish.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a mostly clear brown with a small bubbly beige head that dissipates to a ring. Iced coffee and light milk chocolate aromas with some faint creamer notes as it warms. Thin and watery on the palate with some coffee bean and chocolate flavors. Very thin, but it is a session ale I suppose. Lingering coffee bean and chocolate on the finish with a touch of green pepper.

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a mostly clear yellow gold with a finger of off-white foam. Lots of overripe orange in the nose with some faint apricot, grain and light pineapple aromas. A bit syrupy on the palate with a thin mouthfeel. Slightly warming alcohol mid-palate. Warming finish with muted generic fruit notes. Nothing special, this one.
