Blond colour, clean. Some smell of wet grains. Fllavour of bread and again wet grains; correct bitterness; a bit of fusels.
Drinkable.

Dark brown. Frothy head. Looks appetizing. The aroma hints at a thin, toasty beer. There's decent body. It's got a worty note, and some sort of harsher toasty notes. There's a decent bitterness but no meaningful hop aromatics. I don't mind this interpretation of Black IPA. It's not my favourite take but I can appreciate it for what it is, even if the execution seems a bit off.

Cloudy but quite dull. So it doesn't look good. Thick head. On the nose, sort of a citrus/pine aroma, and yeasty. On the palate, it's okay. There's light bitterness. The malts are weak and the hops lack any distinctive character. I mean, that's an odd hop mix for a hazy IPA, and as it turns out, going off the board doesn't work this time. All told, it's not bad, but definitely below the mean for this style.

Reddish-brown colour, some haze. Looks like a fermentation issue. Medium head. The aroma is a bit buttery, a touch toasty. Same on the palate - this leads with diacetyl. Not much hop character, either bitterness or anywhere else. Sloppy work for a brewery that can do better.

Not english, red and oily. Smooth and a bit creamy, but clearly relying on some other oily thing. Sk co-op

Good very light base stout. Dry. Raspberry is a bit oily. Decent beer, too fruity. Co-op sk

Modest light gold body and no real foam, mostly sweet apple aroma though with some slight skin bitterness. Flavour is modest apple, soft sweetness. Decent carbonation. Unexceptional BC cider but still okay in that macro kind of way.
