Pour is a dark brown fudge with a small white head. Aroma is candi sugar and dark fruits. Flavor is an even better dark fruit with plums and raisin. Lots of dark candi sugar is left on the tongue. One of my favorite style, not often attempted. A well done example here. Lots of sugar covered dark fruit.

Pour is a Uber light looking gold with a large white head. Aroma is not much. A bit of chalky malt is all. Flavor is more dry chalky malt with a whisper of green hops. Not very exciting and very light all around.

Pour is a hazy amber with a small tan head. Aroma is like a pumpkin beer. Cinnamon and clove with some orange peel. Flavor is like the aroma. Decent hit of cinnamon and cloves with various other baking spices. Liquid fruitcake. Decent but one is enough.

Can from Joe's Wine and Liquor, Memphis. Aroma is coffee with dark malt, some roast, mocha, sweet cocoa, and caramel. Flavour is sweet with a moderate roasty bitterness. Body is medium. Coffee Sweet Stout, delivers as expected.
