On tap at The Magnet, pours a clear blonde with a smal white head. Aroma has bright grassy hops, light pine, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is crisp and biting, with bright grassy hops, crisp crackery malt, and a nice residual bitterness. Clean, well-hopped and balanced. Very good.

On tap at The Magnet, pours a hazy dark reddish amber with a small white head. Nose has a bright minty character, with big chewy bready malt, toasted caramel, and resinous hops underneath—that mintiness is quite prominent. Flavour is amply bitter, with plenty of resinous hops, piney bitterness, big bready malt, chewy toffee, and again with some mintiness. Bold hops combine nicely with the solid malt structure. Very good.

Grapefruit and peach skin. Pours hazy golden with decent head. Lots of green onion in the finish, hop tang. Not great. Can.

355mL can, pours a hazy orange with a large white head. Nose is laid back, with gentle rustic notes, not much else – maybe some toasted biscuity malt. Flavour is clean but pretty characterless, with very gentle spicy yeast, toasted crackery malt, and seltzer notes. Not much going on here. Clean and drinkable enough, but not interesting at all.

On tap at The Magnet. Pours clear gold with a white head. Gentle, old pine on the nose. Flavour has dry old pine, some resins, a bit mineralic; long bitter finish. Clean, pleasant, serviceable IPA.

On tap at The Barley Merchant, pours a hazy dull blonde with a small white head. Nose is pretty timid, with soft guava and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is fruity and crisp, with pleasant guava notes, crisp biscuity malt, and a hint of residual sugars. Clean, fairly dry and yet fruity. Solid enough.

On tap at Barley Merchant. Pours hazy blonde with a white head. Gentle citrus and some lemon sugars on the nose. Flavour has light citrus, some rind. Light acidity and a dry finish. Not super interesting, but nicely made.

Pale and opaque. Medium head. Light floral aroma, hints of hop. Off-dry finish. Mellow brett. Decent beer, I didn't get much of the green tea.

473ml can. Pours a clear gold with a medium, frothy, long lasting, white head that leaves thick, sticky curtains of soapy lace. Mild aroma of crackery pale malt, lemon and grassy hops. Sweet flavour of biscuity pale malt, grapefruit, grass and piney hops in a crisp, dry, bitter finish. Light body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Quite possibly the dankest Pilsner I’ve ever had. Drinks like an APA.
