Medium chestnut colour with a thick head. This one dates back to the Bad Tattoo days, and emerged from the damn crypt at the back of my closet. But they still make it, at Tin Whistle. Medium body, with some extra unfermented sugars. Light pecan accent. I guess that's mostly it for adjunct, taking it away from a traditional brown ale. But it's not a bad brown ale - the base works well here, especially because it's bigger than it should be. It's more the adjunct I'd like them to take more seriously.

Roast and light pecan. A little lemon. Brown pour with decent head. Some cloying tininess in the finish. Can.

Hazy but dull tan colour. Not so much head. Sort of a berry nose. Soft body, a bit wheaty, definitely low bitterness.

Dullish amber with some haze. Medium head. On the nose, some lemon and hops (lemon is prominent on the label so of course I get that!). Slightly biscuity pale malt. On the palate, it's pretty malty, with again some biscuit but also it's kind of gloppy. So a suboptimal malt character. The hop kind of dies out here, too. It promises decent on the nose, but can't even deliver that on the palate.

Okay foam on a cloudy peach juice kind of body. Good fresh peach aroma, slight pine, a bit of tartness. Taste is a mostly fresh peach, vague light grain notes. Finishes a little watery and subdued, could be tangier and less muddy.

Hazy whiteish pink body and okay foam. Good guava on the nose, modest level of tartness and freshness. Taste is fresh guava, maybe slight vanilla, ending citrusy and smooth. Good enough, but there's nothing new here.

Hazy light orange body and okay foam. Really nice peach and mandarin orange on the nose, quite fresh. Taste is mellow orange, tangerine, finishing oily and smooth. Mostly okay, hits its notes without too much fuss.

Light peach and some citrus. Hazy golden pour without much head. Light tangy finish. Watery and flavourless. Tap at Upside.

Opaque, no head. This hazy pale does have a pretty big peach aroma. Big peach on the palate, too. There's a lot of sweetness there but it balances well against the bitterness. Solid peach beer.
