4.6/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 4 Texture 4 Overall 4.5
On tap at Empty Keg, pours a dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma is very malty, seemingly syrupy, with heaps of caramel and little in the way of hops. Flavour is likewise very malty, with lots of sweet caramel, syrup, and almost no hops. Syrupy and cloying. Unpleasant.

On tap at Empty Keg, pours a clear copper golden with a small beige head. Aroma is laid back, with gently sweet malt and creamsicle. Flavour is along the same lines, with bready malt and gently sweet cereal grains. Clean enough but a pointless creation.

On tap at Empty Keg, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out gently sweet cereal malt, with little else. Flavour is crisp, with dry crusty bready malt and some crispness. Little hop character. Drinkable but forgettable.

On tap at Empty Keg, pours a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma brings out bready malt and gentle earthy and floral hops. Flavour is on the malty side, with caramely bready malt and almost no hops. Caramely and sweet. It's alright.

Blonde and with a slight haze, light hop fruitiness, a touch of phenol. Sweet. Probably needs more hop for balance.

Dark brown, thin head, has a nice brown sugar note, a bit thin. Would like more residual sugar, and some of the promised coffee flavour.

Bright amber...a touch paler than the cream, but less head. Very sweet amber. Cloying.
