(Can) Pours clear golden with good white head. Nice aroma - grassy with candy hints. Light body with plenty of bright carbonation. Good taste too. Refreshing lightly citrus start. Hoppy bitterness grows steadily through the palate with a long crisp bitter finish. Very good.

440ml can into shaker. From Beer Cartel. Pours a deep dark black with a coffee coloured head. Nose of chocolate and liquorice. Medium body, slight zing. Dry finish is dark chocolate with late lingering coffee. Nice schwarzbier, refreshing and tasty.

Can. Almost clear gold with a white head that's soon a scant coat. Aroma of pine, grilled grapefruit, light bread, rumbling mango. 7+ So it tastes. Plainish bready sweetness, citrus and some tropical fruit, pine coming through towards a firmly bitter end. Strong for what it offers but fair enough.

Can. Almost black with a loosish light tan head. Aroma of roast, caramel, licorice. So it tastes - perhaps some chocolate too. Sweetish and very smooth with modest floral-tinged bitterness. Direct flavours with fine balance. Good stuff.

Can. Amber with a frothy near white head that lasts OK. Biscuity aroma with light floral and spice notes. The hop aromatics are less light on a swig but don't overwhelm the malt side of things. Very briefly rich with a dryish bitter finish. Perhaps a tad fizzy. Good.

Schooner on tap at The Grainstore, Newcastle. Looks like a NEIPA, all cloudy amber with a solid head of white foam. Nose is fruit and dusty cardboard. Refreshingly bitter, like a fruity Pils. Good ale, easy to drink.

Can. Mid gold with a 2cm white head that fades pretty quickly. Bready and grainy aroma with floral and spicy touches. A little brief richness before solid and very spicy bitterness. Perhaps the bitter finish jolts more than seasons but this Urqs pretty well.

A really high quality hazy IPA. Tasted yesterday so I don't have accurate notes, but there was a nice blend of tropical and citrus notes, a strong body and smooth but hoppy finish. Great stuff.

(Can) Pours slightly hazy red brown with small beige head. Nice hoppy aroma with pine and maybe hints of caramel. Great mouthfeel, smooth medium body with plenty of soft carbonation. Great taste too. There’s hops from start to big bitter finish. Providing some balance is an appearance in the mid palate of some caramel notes. An enjoyable beer, maybe a little hoppy for everyday.
