Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 5.5

Poured from 500mL bottle. Clear amber gold with small white head. Very simple to the point of being, quite frankly, boring. Very mild malt with little else. Meh.

Poured from 500mL bottle. Black with small beige head. Fairly roasty, mild chocolate, quite feint cherry. Adjuncts are fairly subtle. If he’s going for a dessert pastry stout, adjuncts should be upped x10, but it’s a decent stout.

Poured from 500mL bottle. Clear copper gold with small white head. Lots of resin, some underlying crystal malt, could use a bit more depth, but its okay.
