Sweetish take on the style. Some lemony floral hops, but it's also got a dirty yeastiness that detracts from the overall presentation.

Nice chocolatey rich body, quite a bit of toastiness, but the sugars bring it together. Balanced and moreish.

Lemony, with a little bit of bitterness, but also lots of malt. The hop character is decent.

Can. Hazy and fairly pale. Not much head. Has a decent bitterness, and some brighter citrusish notes. The malts aren't bad...on the sweeter side, but not bad.

Murky orange body and very modest foam, heavy fresh pressed sour orange on the nose. Flavour is a lot of muddy tart fruit, strong acidity. Okay mouthfeel. Juicy but lacking the punch of a good sour.

Nice heavily carbonated gold and amateur foam, strong pilsnery lager hops on the nose. Flavour is good pilsner hops, some sharpness and good carbonation. But otherwise a simple pilsner.

Slight haze. Just a thin head. Sort of a dullish colour. Lots of passionfruit in this one, just a touch of kiwi. The saltiness of the base gose doesn't necessarily blend well with the passionfruit, but it does make the beer seem fairly light and refreshing. Low level tartness in there. So maybe it isn't seamless, but it's pretty good.

Smells of nice sharp hops with some vague malts in the background. Has good foam on a muddy brown body. Flavour is pretty good-ish malts and some sharp hops, not bad and there are good hops here to keep it real. Mouthfeel is a little weak, I say that with reservations, it could be smarter but is okay. It's still a decent attempt, not bad at all.

The aroma is soft winey cherry and very wet, and only the cherry shows up there though. Has good foggy copper body but no foam to support it. Flavour is sugary syrupy sweet cherry, maraschino almost, nothing else going on either. Mouthfeel has too much sugar and comes off too cloying. There are good cherry notes here but too artificial and it's not really sour either.

The aroma is very good passionfruit though I can't find the kiwi. Has a very nice cloudy yellow body with modest foam. Flavour is good bright passionfruit, fresh and tart. Mouthfeel is sugary but not excessively so. This is decent, though straight ahead, and well made.
