Can. Confusingly there seems to be a 5.9% version as well. Just misted pale gold with a loosish white head. Aroma of tropical fruit chews, pine, crackers. Clean, lean lager palate with a little fruit and somewhat peppery pine. Snappy finish is fairly bitter. Works pretty well.

Can. Moderately hazy orange with a modest white head. Aroma of pineapple, orange and crackers. Very light bodied. Not much behind the fruit flavours before a snappy, moderately bitter finish. Refreshing but a bit empty.

Delicious aromas of raisins, vanilla and bread. A fairly bitter taste that overwhelms the more nuanced flavours a little, but very nice.

Tap. Black with a fat coat of tan head. Aroma is doughy with nectarine, pine, mango, chocolate. Silky, a bit more than medium bodied. Really fruity with mocha, no roast to speak of, resinous bitterness grips slowly. Finish is well off dry. Haven't tried 13 yet, but this is a departure from previous years. So much going on but nothing dominates - although it's very hoppy.

Tap. Clear copper, modest beige head. 3+ Malty aroma with bread, caramel and a singed nut skin note I didn't like. 6+ Smooth and very clean. Rich but not too sweet, and toasty rather than nutty. No fruit. Sufficient bitterness is just there to support. Good.

Can. Black with a fat coat of brown head that doesn't last. Roasty aroma with caramel, liquorice and mocha. Just medium bodied. Dryish but soft with caramel and a little creaminess before firm roast and slightly spiced bitterness. I guess this is supposed to be a regular wintery beer rather than a fancy occasion one - really does the job nicely.

Can. Clear amber, a cm of white head. Sweet berry aroma with bread, melon, tenor register citrus, sappy pine. Not that lean a malt profile - sticky breadcrust, mango, red berries before a resinous bitter finish. Big, solid drop, although I missed the lightening notes that the New Sky IIPA had.
