Aromas are caramel malt, resin, grapefruit hops and on the mild side. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, sweet up front, add in some sunflower seeds. Finish is sweet, low bitter and odd for a West Coast style.

16oz can. Juicy, bright...cool hop tone. Body is pleasant, not overly thick, excessively oaty. There is some faint bitterness, perhaps from the Motueka. Really tasty beer, solid for the style.

Aromas and flavors are dominated by lemon. In the can I also pick up a bit of vanilla, but not in the glass. There's a touch of graham cracker in the flavors but I get no marshmallow and I don't think any vanilla either. Fairly tart and dry. Almost salty in the finish. I could see cooking with this, but not another one to drink.

Aromas and flavors are an interesting blend of grapefruit, resin, lime, pineapple, straw and pale malt. Add in an easy sweetness up front and enough bitter and carbonation to balance. Slightly sweet finish. Nice beer.

16oz can. Young Blood indeed, this one would be hot in the 18 year old girl market. Bright, fruity, Starburst intense candy flavors. Alcohol is well hidden, almost not there. You could drink a lot of these for sure. I like pina colada aspect, the tangerine is kind of lame in this instance. A 9% Pina Colada sour..kinda cool. A Crush Orange soda Pina Colada Sour..not quite as cool. Unique and goofy to try. I would never fathom buying a 4pack.

16oz can. Deep purple-red body, a little murky. Steady head. Raspberry dominates, cherry is there too, ginger quite distant. Graham cracker is there too I suppose. All around artificial candy tasting, sort of a mess, limited finesse. Drinkable but not that impressive.

16oz can. Has some of that musty Biere de Garde feel. Much better than I expected it to be, has some interesting nuance to it. Great balanceand drinkability for the ABV. A little sugary still somehow. OK.

16oz can. Thick, smoothie body. Dripping with thick syrupy grapefruit puree. Pretty tasty in some respects..squirt/ pink grapefruit. Lacks much beer tone.

Seems to be kind of a cross between a Belgian wit and a flavored saison. Aromas are yeasty, wheat and lemon. Flavors are similar to nose, Belgian yeast comes through more, good balance between sweet, bitter and carbonation. Not bad, not great.

Pint can from Niemuth's 1/28/23. Hazy amber, medium head, poor retention. Aroma of strong vanilla. Some berry, graham cracker, and a banana pudding note. Taste is vanilla, tart berry, hint of funk. Moderate tartness. Meh.
