Thanks to AleRider78 for this one for my birthday, from the brewery. Pours a slight hazy golden-amber colour with a beige frothy cap, decent retention and lacing. Grassy leafy green hop nose over sweet caramel malts with hints of berries. The flavours are the same, but nicer as the dryness cuts the sweetness of the malt. Goes down better, with the bitterness in the middle, but the finish being dry. Awesome to try, but not one I would do again. Nice homage to Metallica's debut album.

Thanks to AleRider78 for this one for my birthday. Was expecting hazy, but amber colour, very slight haze with a warm frothy cap, good retention and some tiny spots of lacing. Sweet, fruity aromas mixing berry notes, cereal malt and some wheat, banana nose. Hoppy flavours over bubble gum hints. Cereal grain and grassiness basically. Quite bitter and dry in the finish. Gets hazier at last pour, but seems quite amber for a DDH or NEIPA. A little juicier, but so bitter, seems like a DDH Amber IPA that is not a NEIPA. Still pretty good.

Pours a clear darker amber colour with a big warm-beige head, frothy, bubbly with good retention and some creamy bits of lacing. Big hoppy nose of oranges, with lots of its peel. All of this over loads of caramel malts in the base. The mouthfeel is smooth, going down nicely with just enough dryness in the finish. Does get stronger as you go, with some good bitterness right before the end. Nice cereal grain malts that are darker, with the caramel and citrus zest. Nicely balanced between the citrus hoppiness and the malty caramel.

Cloudy golden colour with a pink hue, frothy-creamy warm cap, good retention and creamy lacing. Nice fruity aroma of citrus and the guava. The fruit shows up well in the taste with the bitterness of citrus zest. The mouthfeel is juicy with a very dry finish. A refreshing, well-brewed, not so milkshake, but very hoppy and fruity IPA.

Can: Poured a hazy yellow color ale with nice foamy head. Aroma of orange juice cocktail is weird and doesn’t really work well. Taste is Mr. Freeze orange flavours with weird residual sugar notes. Body is about average with good carbonation. Doesn’t taste like beer and the MR. Freeze/orange cocktail notes is not interesting.

Enjoyed at Craft Beer Market. Pours a dark brown colour with a mocha head and decent lace. Dark fruits in the aromas with some roasted malts. The burnt malts show up more in the taste with the dark fruit in the background. Nice schwarzbier that has nice burnt notes and quite rich overall.
