Can. Very dark brown. A beige head settles to a fluffy cm. Aroma of mocha, some chicory, caramel, delicate spices. Pretty light bodied but with a touch of richness (ie success for the style). Biscuit with a touch of caramel, mocha, discreet but classy bitterness. A friendly and satisfying drop.

Can. Clear dark brown with a beige head that fades to a half cm or so. Aroma of bread, an earthy/ nutty/ chocolate/ chicory mixture, spices. Fairly dry. Clean, transparent palate. More bready than suggested by the aroma with darker sugars and chocolate more of an accent. Then quite firm bitterness. Pretty good.

Can. Clear golden amber with a 2cm white head. Moderately funky aroma is quite like Bridge Rd Chevalier Saison but with pear swapped for citrus. Nice spices. Medium bodied, carbonation is moderate and could stand to be a bit higher. At first it's sweetish with dough and autumnal fruit before spices and a little bitterness emerge. I would have liked a little drier and some more bitterness, but it's pretty good.

From a 375ml can on 22/11/2021. Pours a slightly hazy golden with a small head. The aroma is light and fruity. Tastes quite sweet, with touches of citrus, stone and tropical fruit, little bitterness and an almost ice cream like finish. Has a creamy mouthfeel and moderate carbonation. Dessertish and very well made.

375ml can into shaker. thanks to Beer Cartel and Ratebeer. Golden bronze beer with a tight foamy white head, high fine carbonation. Light sweet floral nose. Patchy lacing. Slight effervescence, medium body, hints of wood. Finish is bitter with late berries. A bit watery and sweet but nice enough.

Can from Beer Cartel (as a Ratebeer Supertaster). Deep orange in colour. Citrus nose. Very gentle old school hop flavours. Almost lemony with some malt sweetness. Smooth.
