7.6/10 β€” Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Black body, ring of light cream/latte carbonation. Aroma chewy, mostly dark fruits and roasted malts. The body is roasty and chocolatey with a firm vinous, almost tart red wine character. Tastes like a hybrid of a Belgian Quadrupel and an Imperial Stout, and probably deserves further evaluation.

Murky mango puree body, thin to medium cream head. Aroma earthy and yeasty with banana and passionfruit. Body a trifecta of fermented tropical fruits (passionfruit and fleshy stone fruits), citrus, and grassy-floral-potpourri notes. Creamy and soft but with a stronger and longer-lasting citrus bite than most of their other IPAs.

Black body, ring of light cream/latte carbonation. Aroma huge coconut, chocolate, and booze, like an alcohol-sodden Almond Joy. Thick, rich body with milky coconut ensconced in dark chocolate. A boozy, sweet dessert beer.

Murky carrot/mango orange body, no head. Sour, super-sweet orange nose, candy-like and floral with hints of vanilla. Body tart but not sour, like orange sherbet with a cerealy undertone. Thick and dense with a pleasing bite.

Hazy deep orange body, medium cream head. Aroma big sticky fermented fruits (peach, apricot, papaya) and honey. Huge, sweet body, a floral-tropical fruit hops tea with underlying onion and grassy notes, but hardly any bitterness. Alcohol was evident mostly as warmth in the chest. It's a sweet one that could perhaps benefit from a touch more bite, but it's still exceptional.

Can. Pours a clear gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has pine and light resin with earthy grass and a slight sweet grain backbone. Flavor has sweet grains and light pine with a bit of resin and sweet grains supporting.

Cloudy deep orange-brown body, medium dissipating cream head. Nose huge, sticky tropical fruit (passionfruit, papaya, pineapple), sweet and doughy. Body a sweet hops nectar with candied orange, apricot, passionfruit, papaya, melon, stone fruits, nectar, and dough. Delicious.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a hazy, dark orange with a finger of off-white head that lingers. Creamy orange and citrus on the nose with a touch of hopburn. Palate is similar without much carbonation unfortunately. Finishes with more pith, orange juice and wild citrus.

Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a hazy orange with a finger of off-white foam that lingers, then dissipates. Crushed orange, pineapple and grapefruit pith on the nose. Palate is similar with some dank blueberry as it warms. Medium to low perceived bitterness on the finish.
