Keg at Craft. Yum. Cheesy, lightly sour, very interesting. Smooth, little bit of sweetness, little sparkle at the end. Creamy, toffee. Really nice.

Keg at Craft. Pale gold colour with small white head. Aroma is grape juice, sweet and fruity. Bit of white wine, bit apple and bit yeasty. Taste is very appley, and grape, and very Belgian style yeastiness. Dangerously drinkable and quite crisp. Very nice.

Keg at Craft. Dark red brown colour with small beige head. Aroma is roasted malt, bit of chocolate and boozy fruits. Taste is quite chocolatey, with the herbal coriander element and the lime coming up at the end. Quite full on in the mouth, and almost vinous in feel. Bit of a strange one, but quite nice.

Clear paleish amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, soft, reasonable fine carbonation. Very sweet malts, sugary caramel. Sweet pine and sweet citrus and tropical fruits. Mild spice. Smooth finish, more sweet caramel and banana esters. Hmm! Not hating this but it is sweeter than the vast majority of DIPAs!

Tap at the Taphouse Munich. Hazy pale golden, offwhite lace. Slightly Farty and meaty rural nose, perfumed. Medium light body, perfumed hops on light hay and grain body. Quick fizzlestick finish. Maybe a tad old, spice notes seem to have degenerated.

Sample at GABF 10/07/2017, thanks to my bro for assistance with note-taking. Clear dark orange color with a thin white head that dissipates quickly. Short strings of lace. Aroma of oak, berry and yeast. Medium body with flavors of sweet-tart raspberry, herbal yeast, oak and malt. The finish is oaky with a raspberry aftertaste. Decent overall.
