Okay deep brown body, decent foam. Nice creamy chocolate on the nose. Flavour is yeasty barley, sweet chocolate notes. Full mouthfeel but a bit of dog hair in there messes it up. Still okay, slightly funky straight ahead porter.

Okay medium clear gold body and modest foam, very good dank piney hop aroma. Flavour is soft citrusy hops, vague pineapple and pine. Okay oiliness. Above average IPA.

Mellow yeasty malt on the nose, cloudy brown body with little foam. Flavour is okay yeasty malt, soft hop notes. Smooth mouthfeel, present oiliness. Nothing spectacular but still okay. --- Beer aliased from original tick of Viking Red on 10 Jul 2020 at 01:18 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 2 | Overall - 4.5. Original review text: Soft vague malt on the nose, has okay foam on a cloudy brown body. Flavour is indistinctive malt, blah, boring. Watery mouthfeel. This is weak in every aspect.

Vague lemon aroma, has nice foam on a cloudy yellow body. Flavour is weak grain and citrus of no distinction, mouthfeel is full enough. Drinkable but it's totally lacking character. Like, why bother?

The aroma is okay sharp hops and modest malt, has nice cloudy orange body with lousy foam. Flavour is weak hops and vague malts, mouthfeel is watery and thin. This is a substandard pale ale. --- Beer aliased from original tick of The Commuter on 10 Jul 2020 at 01:22 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 6 | Flavor - 5 | Texture - 2 | Overall - 4.5.
