Can, Carnegie Cellars. Nearly black, a 1/2cm of light tan head that's soon less than a coat. Aroma of chocolate, brandy, roast, coconut fudge. Silky, medium low carbonation. Toddy-like coconut and brandy with roast and chocolate almost pushed into the background. Not all that sweet considering, with alcohol not quite overt but lurking close by. Nice, coherent.

Can. Clear reddish brown, a cm of off white head. 6+ Aroma of blood orange, sticky breadcrust, hints of tropical fruit and pine. Perhaps a little sweeter than I'd like, but the balance of dark sugars, citrus and then piny bitterness makes sense. Coherent, pretty good.

Can. Gold, huge white head. Floaty mixed citrus aroma - lime, pink grapefruit, citrus blossoms - hints of pine, subtle biscuit. Pretty much how it tastes. Modest cracker and biscuit sweetness, citrus - some candied - before it dries out towards a bitter and slightly resinous end. An amped golden ale. Good.

Can. Hazy yellowish orange with a rocky cm of white head. Aroma of oranges, lime, greenish mango, pineapple, crackers, hints of coconut. A slight antacid feel to the fruity taste with a dry and slightly astringent moderately bitter finish.

Can. Quite pale gold with a near cm of white head. Berry, citrus, grass and tropical fruit aroma with some crackers. But there's a bit honeyed depth to the malt and some pine to match the fruit towards the end, which is firmly bitter. Solid enough.

Can. Startlingly clear pale gold with an inch of white head. Aroma of kumquat, grapefruit, mango, honeydew melon, crackers. Fruit flavours seem a little tinny upon a sip - perhaps because there's not much substance to the malts behind. A little resin towards the fairly bitter finish. Not bad.

Can. Clear amber, an inch of white head. Gentle kumquat tropical fruit and pine aroma with some breadcrust. More "dank" tropical flavours in the taste which starts with sweet fruit then gets quite resinous and bitter towards the end. Weakish aroma but solid beer. Good value too.

LCI. Decent early attempt at the style. A little heavy and sticky sweet. Has a touch of an oat creamish note
