16oz can. A pretty nice Hazy IPA or Hazy Pale Ale but not really a West Coast at all. Vic Secret tone is really nice, fleshed out by the other two. Limited bitterness and a sweet body that lacks much malt tone. Lacks balance, finesse, but pretty tasty still.

16oz can. A nice enough juicy IPA, not really bitter or malty enough to be a West Coast. Drinks more like a Hazy that has the wrong hops (Comet). Mosaic blueberry tone in the finish. Enjoyable beer overall, perhaps just not really to any particular style.

16oz can. Rich malts, a pretty legit Amber at first on some levels but just comes across sloppy. Rich, barky malts, decent bitterness. A little bit strange.

Aromas are citrus and malt with a hint of herbs. Flavors are similar to nose, citrus comes forward and slightly sweet with good carbonation. Very drinkable and satisfying.

Aromas are resin, citrus, malt, tobacco, leather and a bit of mineral. Flavors are similar to nose, leans very slightly sweet and add in some melon and stone fruit. Okay body and carbonation. Finish follows flavors. Decent but not great.

Aromas are kind of an interesting blend of pale lager, heffeweizen and pale ale. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose becoming more of a hoppy keller beer. Bittersweet with slightly soft carbonation. Decent but not great.
