Foggy deep brown with a small loud brownish head that fades away instantly. Aroma: raspberry marmalade, sweet wort, brown bread, dried fruit. Medium body. Fizzy carbonation. Taste: medium sweet and light sour. Raspberry jam, rye malts, brown bread, dried fruit. A tart fruity touch at ending. Sweet aftertaste. I know I have to say that often. It's too sweet.

Cloudy yellow to orange with a moderate white head of low retention. Aroma: phenols, wheat bread, grapefruit. Light to medium body. The taste follows the aroma. Way too phenolic. Unfermented yeast. Weak effort.

From Dasha: pours clear gold with a white head. Aroma is unbrewed malts and hops if that makes sense. Taste is barley malt, with a little bit of hops in there. Good for an NA beer.

Cloudy golden colour with a moderate white head of average retention. Aroma: malts, vanilla, lactose, citrus fruit, spicy hop. Light to medium body. Taste: light plus sour, light sweet, malty, lactic, light vanilla. Not much bitterness. Overall drinkable, but hardly worth of those 4$.

Hazy reddish amber with a small short-lived head. Nose: tomato pickle juice, coriander, garlic, a shade of wheat. Light body. Soft carbonation. Taste: moderate tomato juice, lightly sour and salty. Some garlic and dill. Near to no cayenne pepper. Flat ending. Not the best tomato gose ever. Still not bad considering it's Konix.
