Nobody ever said Franga was Uptown, but it _is_ white bread. Can. Just misted pale gold with a modest but lasting white head. Refined grapefruit, pomelo, crackers and light tropical aroma. Surprisingly creamy texture with gently rich light bready malt, as much mandarin as sharper citrus. fleshy tropical fruit. A little less bitterness than I really wanted but nicely peppery there too.

Can. Cloudy pale orange with a good inch of white head. Aroma of grapefruit and Meyer lemon peel, crackery bread, hints of tropical fruit, white grapes and herbs. Very Citra. Light bodied. Tropical fruit chews, citrus. Feels increasingly resinous toward the fairly bitter end. Good, perhaps a little impersonal.

Can. Clear copper w a coat of off white head. Aroma of caramel, bread, spices. Sweet with balancing earthy and spicy bitterness. Fair enough.

Can. Black ~a cm of tan head. Heavily roasted aroma with some sour milk, spices. Medium bodied, smooth. Roasty but empty in the middle with somewhat citrusy and spicy hops and a moderately bitter finish.

Can. Hazy yellowish orange with a white head. Aroma of under-ripe tropical fruit, grass, mint, menthol, crackers, hints of butter. Light bodied, slightly slick. More citrus in the taste before a somewhat harsh burning herbal finish. I blame society.

LCI. Cinnamon overpowers. There is vanilla and chocolate, plus some gingerbread. But doesn’t wholly balance

Can. More brown than red with a good inch of beige head that lasts pretty well. Aroma of sticky breadcrust, pine, hints of stewed fruit. So it tastes - sweet with sticky breadcrust or even buns before firm resinous bitterness emerges. Gets a little peppery at the end. Not quite my sort of thing but I liked the finish.
