Copper, massive beige head. Nose of spicy Belgian yeast/bubblegum notes.
Similar palate but spicier and very bitter. Unbalanced, needs more malt sweetness in back

Black, tan head. Nose of light roast, brown sugar, chocolate & light coffee.
Sweet start, strong coffee & light roast. Bitter finish is primarily from alcohol heat and light roast

Hazy. Thick head. Pale. Ok, lots of sauvin on the nose. Good body. Medium bitterness. A little bit of acidity...haha that's on me, leaving a Loveshack beer for a month before opening. I mean, if this was going to pick up a touch of brett I should have let it sit a few months longer. Because this would be a fucking amazing brett IPA. As it is, a nice Kiwi IPA.

Bottle from the brewery. Dark brown. This has a lot of coffee on the nose, actually. On the body, it's got some roast, a somewhat flabby malt. Finishes not great, definitely could use more residual sugar to bring out the roast more.

500mL bottle, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma has quite a robust roasted malt, ample hops, and some earthiness. Flavour is a little murky and lacking cohesion, with roasted malt, muddled earthiness, and some bitterness. Some nice roast here, but it’s a bit clumsy. Not bad.

Poured from 500mL bottle. Fairly dark brown with small tan head. Dry and roasty, feint cocoa powder. Could be a bit bigger, but competent enough.

500mL bottle. Pours nearly black with a tan head. Gentle roast and coffee on the nose. Flavour has dry dusty malts and coffee, some crusts. Decent body. It's fine, a perfectly servicable stout.

Bottle, from the brewery. Pale amber, slight haze. It froths up with a thick head, a bit too thick, but the effervescence is refined. The head ends up forming these crazy formations. The aroma definitely brings to mind a brett IPA, just a touch of brett, and some floral hop notes. If you're going to suffer an infection on your IPA, a mild brett infection is definitely the way to go. On the palate, it's dry, nice bitterness, again that really mellow brett accent, bitter grapefruit finish with a hint of lemon and honey. Pretty sure it wasn't described as an Orval hommage but that's what it tastes like and I'm here for that.
