Aromas are slightly old resin, MJ, citrus. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, with oldish resin coming out more. Full bodied and soft mouth.

Aromas are resin, citrus and dry grain. Flavors are similar to nose. Resin seems a touch old. Excellent balance between bitter, sweet and carbonation. Good body and finish follows flavors. Pretty good overall.

Aromas are spices, floral, citrus, stone fruit and a bit of resin. Flavors are similar to nose, citrus comes out more and is perfectly complimented by the carbonation. Bittersweet. A touch medicinal in the finish. Good beer overall.

16oz can. Bitingly dry at first sip, big hairspray, phenolics. Leans heavily into some high temp fermented sketch. Punishing to drink. Not good.

Draft at Orange & Brew. Very hazy, like pineapple juice. Also a nice leggy foam left on the glass. Makes me think of a pineapple nose, though. Also the heavy resiny noise of a dank IPA. Citrus at the side.

16oz can. Kind of thin. Classical, but not a lot of flavor. A party beer. Pretty much an international Pale Lager with a little better ingredients. Not so good, but not so bad. Kind of like that beer that brewpubs used to try to convert BMC beer drinkers with, maybe a slight improvement but still pretty weak overall.

16oz can. Pretty nice Festbier, foeder gives it some earthy depth. Solid zesty noble hopping, bitter aftertaste. Pleasant bready malts too. Really solid beer.

16oz can. Not as chunky as most beers that describe themselves as smoothie. Fruit flavors are pleasant enough, though kind of cancelling each other out, orange dominating. Banana is mild, not really that discernable to me, but perhaps helps to smooth it out with the lactose. OK.

16oz can. Deep brown-black body. Steady beige head. True to style, heavy hops and malt tones collide. Rich chocolate, chewy hops. Really enjoyable beer.
