Can from Tavour. Pours amber with a very large off-white head. Aroma of toffee and floral. Medium body. Flavor is toffee and floral. Malty as it should be, but the bitter is fairly balanced as also it should be. Very nice flavor, and for me it fits the style.

Can from Tavour. Pours very hazy gold with a large persistent white head that laced lightly. Aroma of nectarine and grapefruit. Med body or better. Quite smooth. Juicy and less than dry but hop bitter does nicely balance. Flavor is nectarine, passion fruit and/or grapefruit with some green melon. Quite tasty.

16 oz can. Nice presentation: cap of mocha head on a pitch black liquid. Aroma is a moderate amount of coffee bean with mild roasted malt. Flavor has a good amount of strength for the gravity. Lots of coffee, mild chocolate, and mild roasted malts. Respectable and it’s not gonna get you side ways.

16 oz can. Shows a deep copper / mahogany color.
Aroma is weak earthy grains with weak toffee. Flavor is super light. Maybe a hint of rye. Thinner body. Drinkable but lacking in any malt depth. Meh. Needs a stronger malt profile.
