Can. Very dark brown with a good cm of light tan head. Aroma of mocha, some vanilla, gentle roast. Not all that sweet with slightly more prominent roast and a nip of peppery bitterness at the end. Tasty and tasteful - not overdone.

Can. Very dark brown, a good cm of beige head. Aroma of citrus, nectarines, mocha. Fruity hops remain prominent upon a swig. Dryish with quite snappy bitterness. I like it and I like the hops but lacks a bit of a bottom end for a stout.

Canvent. Clear amber with a modest white head. Aroma of fat ripe cherries, cola, some lime. Moderately sweet cherry, caramel and light bread. Perhaps slightly more sour than bitter, but both are just balancing. Didn't really expect to like this and it's not very IPA-like, but pretty good.

Can. Black with a fat coat of tan head that's soon at the rim. Roasty aroma with licorice, singed sugars, some mocha. Smooth, fullish bodied, lowish carbonation. Sweet with caramel, licorice, less roast than suggested by the aroma, struggling bitterness. Alcohol is well hidden but you also wonder whether it needed to be quite so strong. Still, not bad at all.

Can. Brown with a beige head that's soon at the rim. Chocolatey aroma with mild roast, chicory and spices. Taste is sweet and quite caramel-driven but gentle roast and some chocolate depth are there. Refreshing.

Can. Just labelled IPA but sounds like the same beer. Almost clear amber with a cm of white head that never quite disappears. Aroma of oranges, pine, bread, peach. Quite sweet with lowish bitterness. Nice fruit, slight earthy note I didn't love.

Can @ 4.6% ABV. Pale gold with a good inch of white head. 3+ Lemon blossom aroma with some tropical touches, crackers. Light bodied. Lots of citrus, discreet but sufficient pale slightly biscuity malt. Finish is drying and lower in bitterness than guessed (and wanted). Clean, delicate and refreshing. Impressive.

(Can) Pours opaque golden amber with tiny white head. Pleasant fairly subtle aroma of pine and citrus. Great mouthfeel, smooth, medium body with plenty of soft carbonation and some very bright tingly fizz. Nice refreshing fruit juice start steadily metamorphoses through the palate into a good bitter hoppy finish. There’s some maybe creamy hints mid palate. Very enjoyable.
