Can from Cap Tap. Pours translucent dark amber with a decent, creamish beige head. Aroma of cinnamon, vanilla, and something like a baked donut (or churro!). Med body. Flavor is cinnamon and vanilla with a baked dessert carbohydrate aspect. Not white bread for sure! Not dry, but far from sugary/sticky. Not bitter, but the cinnamon subdues the malt. Actually it is tasty and quite nicely done.

Tap at Cap Tap. Pours translucent gold with a white head. Fruity/spice aroma. Full bodied. Flavor is pale stone fruits, spice/yeast and light malt. Not dry, but not sweet. Heat is well hidden for me - tho thereβs a burn that is likely that. Iβm liking it very much.

Can for Corti Bros. Pours translucent ruddy/purple with an off-white head. Aroma has blueberry, but there's something else. Med body. Flavor is citrus, blueberry, something tangy, and light support from malt. Blueberry gets stronger with time. The mix even turns lightly tart. And a bit earthy in a berry way. With more time I'm thinking it's a lot better than I first thought.

Can. Pours hazy gold with a white head. Citrus, light malts, bit of pine. Definitely not a hop bomb, which isn't a negative in my book.

Can from Corti Bros. Pours lightly hazy gold with a creamy white head that turned into froth. Aroma touches on grapefruit. Med body. Flavor seems to have a lot of grapefruit, to include the fibre flavor. Dry, yet somewhat juicy. Burning with citrus/grapefruit flavor. Actually seems burning on lower part of tongue. Certainly bitter. Nice.

Level 6 Bottleshare. Thanks to Fergus for the can. Opaque dark brown beer, small tan head. Smooth palate, decent fine carbonation. Soft creamy dark chocolate malts. Very mild nuts, not bitter or savoury but there. A little chocolate cake. Light finish. Nice. Goes down very easy.
