16oz can from Tavour. Clear golden pour, ample white foamy head, clumps of lacing. Bready, biscuity aroma. Taste follows with solid bready pale malts, thick and creamy, with a nice bitter bite taking behind to finish it. I feel it is more on the pale lager side, but I guess enough of a bitter finish to make this a pils.

Can from Tavour. Pours clear pale gold with a moderate, transient white head. Aroma is complex but seems to include melon, citrus and pineapple. Med body. Dry. Very hoppy with mild bready support. Flavor is consistent with the aroma. Nice brew.

16oz can from Tavour. Dark, ruddy brown pour, beige head which recedes to thin ring. Aroma features a nice blend of roast malts and chocolate. Taste follows with some sweet chocolate flavors right up front, light toasty bitterness behind. Some bitterness lingers. Tasty little number!

Can from Tavour. Pours clear brilliant gold with a large creamy white head. Aroma is bready biscuity with moderate Noble aromas. Med body. Flavor is the aroma but the Noble grass/spice is large and there's a hint of something herbal. It's really nice and tasty beer.
