Aromas are in order, skunk, citrus and wet grain. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, leaning sweet and wet grain stands out. Body is a touch thin with decent carbonation. Not bad not great.

Hahaha, wow, can't believe it, skunk weed. Been a looong time since I've used that. But that's exactly what this is. Loads of skunk and loads of weed. Good balance between bitter, sweet and carbonation. I'm not a fan of skunky beer at all but somehow this is good.

Quite good! Not as extreme as I expected, thankfully. Well balanced with all the ingredients

A touch of diacytl butteriness but it doesn't prevent it from being good.

Aromas are hops and coffee. IMHO those two things don't go together. Flavors are similar to nose and my opinion regarding those ingredients remains the same. Leans slightly sweet.

Aromas are a subdued blend of citrus, resin, and weed hops. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, lightly Sweet at first with bitter coming on stronger and then sweet returning a little at the end. Citrus is strong here too. Not bad but nothing special.

Aromas are volatile and as soon as I open the bottle I got weed and skunk hops but in the glass, weed comes on stronger and skunk recedes, adding in a little citrus and resin. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, slightly on the dry side, weed dominates with slightly soft carbonation and decent bitter. A touch sweet in the finish.
