Okay medium gold body with average foam. Smells of okay floral hops, a blunt and heavy though. Flavour's nice floral hops, soft peach and pine, oily and smooth finish. A good ISA but a little narrow in its expression.

Has nice big deep purple body and big pink foam. Smell is mellow juicy blackcurrant, berry maybe but hard to tell. Flavour is nice sweet berry, light yet juicy. Dry finish with lingering tannins. Nice berry character, pronounced yet light.

Poured from the tap. Hazy gold with white head. Hop oils dominate this with some light tropical hop notes, slightly dry. Needs a bit of balancing.

Poured from the tap. Clear gold with white head. Crisp grassy hops, has a bit of carbonation that sits in your belly. Decent.

Pours gold enough with good enough foam though it disappears fast and is kind of thin. Lots of biscuity cardboard on the nose, tin, rubber and sugar, not awful but certainly serving the malt liquor definition. Flavour is heavy alcoholic biscuit, chewy and deep, medium booziness. Slightly cloying but not excessive. As far as malt liquors go it's all right, but still rather harsh.
