Pours a clear golden, sheet of white head that drifts to a ring, decent carbonation. Nose is resinous with some tropical fruits. Taste is fairly hop heavy, some tropical fruits, but primarily bittering hops, strong enough to be slightly sharp, that dominate and linger. Over a little dirty socks funkiness, and a mildly sweet base that pretty buried. Can from the brewery.

Can from the brewery from my kids for Father's Day. ;) Pours a very light and clear blonde with not alot of carbonation or head. Nose is hay malt, picking up a bit of that lime. Taste is passable hay malts, with some bitterness under a fairly prominent lime that lends toward a little limeaid. Decent balance. Not all that dense, as you would expect from a session pushing 3%. Tasty but not inspiring.

Pours a nice, slightly cloudy pink, with barely there white head that's down to a ring quickly. Nose is pretty flat, a touch or raspberry. Taste is just disappointing. Really quite thin, mild raspberry, over thin hay malt, mayyyybe a touch of sourness in the finish. Honestly the saddest beer I've had from this brewery. Can brewery.

A really excellent, and drinkable, gose. Nose is primarily lime, with mild wheaty background. Taste is up front lime, with a mild sour/tartness, with a netural sweetness. Over a vague bready malt, and that salt touch in the finish. Very satisfying. Can from the brewery.

Hazy pinkish pours with a medium off white head. Aroma is raspberry puree, and lactic lemony notes. Soft raspberry finish, light and refreshing. Solid raspberry notes.

Black pour, small brown head. Aroma is nutty, semi sweet, cocoa nibs and some burnt coffee. Thin mouth feel, soft carb. Medium bitter peanut butter kites become more and more artificial. Finish is sweet, low bitterness, almost cloying.

Big coconut and subtle vanilla. Fruity malts, strong roast, burnt coffee. Mouth feel is still thin, soft carb. Boozy as it warms with a medium bitterness. Finished quite sweet.

Can from the brewery. Dark brown Ruby pour with a medium beige head. Aroma is very roasty, like stout roasty, but the mouth feel and carb are light and lively like a lager. Medium to high bitterness, deep roast, coffee, light cocoa, and some soy in the finish.
