Can from Corti Bros. Pours clear, bright copper with a transient white head. Aroma is dank and fruity with roasty malt support. Approaching full bodied. Flavor is dankly fruity, but the malt gains a cooked caramel taste - which the incredible amount of dank hoppiness pretty much obscures. Flavor is strong and complex; I can find citrus, pale stone, and melon, but there's a lot more. Flavor is very strong. Pretty dry, very bitter.

Black body, with almost no head. Aroma of bourbon, dark chocolate, coconut, coffee, cocoa, vanilla, some cinnamon, some liquorice. Tastes quite similar, with more sweet, creamy chocolate. Full, creamy mouthfeel, wth a moderate carbonation. Finishes quite sweet, moderate roasty, a bit boozy, with chocolate, vanilla, sweet spices, coffee. Very nice, while to sweet for my taste, with the adjuncts too prominent. The ABV is well hidden though, doesn't drinks too heavy. Score: 8 / 4 / 8 / 3 / 15

Can from Corti Bros. Pours clear copper with a foamy/frothy white head that laced a bit going down. Aroma of citrus, including tangerine, and something suggesting leather. Arguably full bodied. Flavor is tangerine, something suggesting cinnamon, and lots of piney/dank. Not quite entirely dry, but fantastically bitter. Hop burn. No ingredient was wasted making this. Excellent result/flavor.

Can. Pour's murky magenta with a small off white fizzy head that dissipates to almost no lacing. Aroma has pineapple forward some blueberry some I guess dragonfruit Lactose and vanilla. Flavor is fairly sweet just a touch of tartness lots of fruit and a fair amount of lactose milkshakes moodness. Medium body. Pilot on the heap of those smoothie showers that you know aren't that bad but they just you know they're just fruit juice with a little booze in them and it's hard to give a high score to something that really could be reproduced with a bottle of naked and a little vodka.

Interesting aroma combination of mainly citrus hops with some dry grain, straw, and a hint of floral. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, on the sweet side up front, with good carbonation and some bitter to balance. Good body and a slightly bitter finish. Drinkable.

Can from Cap Tap. Pours clear gold with a large foamy head. Aroma has breadiness but grass/citrus/spice dominate. Med body. Flavor has breadiness, but floral, herbal, pale stone and mandarin citrus with spice dominate. It's very dry, and nicely bitter. Excellent and somewhat novel flavor.

Both aromas and flavors are slightly tart tropical fruits, a little vanilla, and some cleaning solution / solvents. Flavors are okay but don't exactly match up. Good body in carbonation. Reasonable finish. Drinkable beer.

Flavored coffee as an adjunct is easy mode and I love it because regular coffee as an adjunct is overpowering 9/10 times, but here it's tons of nutty sweet coffee notes, chocolate, vanilla ice cream, real unique pastry flavors. Nice body and easy drinking

Tap at Cap Tap. Pours translucent bright copper with a slight white head. Aroma of key lime and other fruits. Med body. Flavor has a lot of pineapple or passion fruit for me along with key lime. Rather tart/sour. Quite refreshing.
