Pours a thick, hazy amber with a fluffy white head. Good lacing. Aroma of earthy malt, tropical fruits. Taste has heavy dose of resin, yeast, lingering dankness. Palate has some booze, citrus, more dank malt. Interesting.

Slightly translucent dark brown color has subtle dark red highlights. Brief tan head dissipates quickly. Roasted malt aroma is overshadowed by the oakey, whiskey notes. First sip is soft and silky. Then, a bit of warming alcohol is followed by a touch of oakey, earthy maltiness. Notes of chocolate, vanilla and whiskey. Perhaps some toffee and vanilla as well. Rich and complex, but not overwhelming.

Pours hazy yellow with a large, fluffy white head. Aroma of oily lemon. Taste has lemongrass, bright citrus, pleasant hop notes. Palate has tingly fruit notes, dry finish. Odd Pilsener.

12 ounce can from Woodman’s Appleton, 3/19/22. Clear very dark red, medium fizzy tan head, fair retention. Aroma of chocolate and a hint of dark fruit. Taste is chocolate, grape, graham cracker, roast. Slick, a bit thin. A little odd. Solid.

12 ounce can from Woodman’s Appleton, 3/19/22. #SmallFormarSaturday. Clear dark red, large foamy tan head, good retention. Aroma of raspberry, vanilla, chocolate. Taste is raspberry, roast, just the faintest hint of vanilla. Thin, high carb. Does not deliver as promised.

Pour is more of a cloudy gold with a large white head. Aroma is lemon hops and some wheat malt. Flavor is more of a wheat malt backbone with some citrus hops. Nice attempt but didn't really give off any pils vibes. I would call this a hoppy wheat more than anything.

Red brown with a large foamy tan head that left excellent lacing. Cola, almost wood with fairly strong roasted peanut and a hint of cocoa. Long finish. Medium body.
