Poured from 473mL can. Slightly orangey red with small white head. Timid mixed berry, lacto, pretty average kettle sour. More like get the fun out, not the funk out... Needs improvement.

Deep red-brown colour, medium head. Aroma is of a mild red ale - some malt sweetness, and gentle leafy hop. Balanced red ale, on the sweet side, and the malt hits a bit better than the hops, which kind of disappear here.

Pale and with a bit of haze. Medium head. Light body, but nice fruitiness, sort of a papaya thing going on. White IPA because it's brewed with white wheat, not because it's a white IPA by style, FWIW. It's basically a session IPA with a little bit of wheaty acidity and a nice hop character.

Hazy, blonde, thin head. As promised lots of passionfruit, grape notes on the aroma. Similar on the palate. The malt is kind of crackery and comes across a bit harsh, but they’ve done good things with the kveik, which is admirable.

Pale amber, with a slight haze. Thin head. Has some bitterness and a clean slightly biscuity malt base. So it’s ok, but could do with a brighter hop signature.

Got that nice reddish purple colour. Not much head. Lots of cherry and the elderberry balances out that fruitiness. The base sour isn’t super clean but it’s not bad.

Dull blonde colour. Thin head, fruity hop note, malts are a bit harsh, hops not quite big enough. Just ok.

Smells of vague sweet grains and hops, a bit of buttery vanilla, which probably means it's unclean and there's no reason a kölsch should smell like that. Has good clear yellow body but no foam. Flavour is all butter, no hops, and there's this buttery aftertaste. Sorry guys, a real miss for a kölsch, totally unclean and missing all of the right elements. At least it has a nice golden hue.
