Can. Amber, modest white head. Aroma of sticky breadcrust, pine, hints of tropical fruit & grapefruit. So it tastes. Lots of caramel, tenor register citrus and pine ooze forth before brooding bitterness.

Can. Cloudy pale amber , loose white head. Aroma of crackery dough, yuzu juice, white pepper, coriander. Light bodied, spritzy. Dryish with punchy citrus and a spicy bitter finish. Yuzu is prominent without being dominant. Lively, refreshing.

Can. Label still says "Revered" but more prominently says "West Coast Red Ale". Clear reddish amber with a cm of off white head. Aroma of caramel, some stewed fruit, grapefruit, some pine. The hops mask the malt a bit in the taste leaving just a little sweetness before fruit and resin. Moderate bitterness. Nice quaffer.

Can. Clear gold, a 2cm white head collapses a bit. Aroma of citrus rind, slightly crusty bread, pine, some hints of tropical fruit. Moderately sweet with light bread and a melange of citrus peel. Just hints of tropical fruit before pine oozes through to a fairly bitter finish. Good.

Can. Clear amber. A good cm of white head. Aroma of pine, slightly lolly-like citrus, caramel, breadcrust. Moderately sweet with firm piney bitterness. Wouldn't have minded a few more bubbles. Solid brew.

Can. Deep gold, small white head. Brooding crackery bread & stewed fruit aroma with citrus lollies and some herbal notes. A little less sweet and more transparent of palate than guessed with the citrus and herbs meeting bitterness nicely at the end. Not totally my sort of thing but good.

Can. Amber with a cm of white head. Aroma of somewhat sticky breadcrust, grapefruit, pine. Moderately sweet with some orchard fruit as well as crusty bread before first citrus and then lots of pine & pine needles take over towards a long bitter finish. Old fashioned and good.

Pours deep amber with a large fading head. Nose shows caramel, herbal hops, soft raisins. Flavours include more caramel, bready malt, herbal and earthy hops. Moreish.

Can. Gold with a white head. Rather doughy aroma with light spices. Light bodied and the malt is more focused than suggested by the aroma. Moderate but harsh herbal bitterness. Unpleasant.

Can. Very dark brown with a beige head that fades from a cm to a coat. Aroma of roast, grapefruit, some singed toffee. Which is very much how it tastes. The toffee is to the fore even at the end, but is interesting.
