Motivation? Can, bb 12/24. Dirty amber with a good cm of off white head. Citrus and nectarine aroma with breadcrust behind, then pine, mango. A bit cleaning product. Much more mango and dank flavours upon a swig. Quite sweet. Modest bitterness. Do I not get it or is (already) a bit past it?

From a 440ml can on 29/5/2024. Pours a murky, milky golden with a small to medium head. Has a really punchy tropical and citrus fruit nose. And punchy fruit you get on the sip too - zesty orange, mango and melon. Finishes with a lightly spicy, firmish bitterness, with a dash of citrus rind. Has a silky, slightly creamy mouthfeel with average carbonation. Bold, intense, balanced and delicious.

Presumably a beer about trying to catch a tram. Can. More gold than amber. Almost clear with a small white head. Aroma of mango skin, Sauv Blanc, pine, kumquat. Hayish malt sweetness behind hops that are perhaps less piney & more fruity than suggested before a dryish moderately bitter finish. It's good but not very interesting.

Can, 10C. Black, tan head. 3+ Aroma of chocolate, some roast and singed sugars, vanilla, pepper. 7+ Light but smooth body, lowish carbonation. Fairly dry with roast & dark chocolate before quite brisk bitterness with some pepper and grass. In the end, that it's maybe a tad thin is not as important as it being dryish and bitter.

Can. Clear red brown with a good cm of off white head. Aroma of sticky breadcrust, grapefruit, prunes, honeydew melon. Barely medium bodied, so the sweetness gives it a bit of a boiled lolly character. But the hops are well defined and vibrant with citrus and melon giving way to pine and spice at a fairly bitter end.

From a 440ml can on 25/4/2024. Pours a hazy deep golden with a smallish head. The nose is light with both tropical and herbal notes. Tastes medium sweet and tropical up front, followed by some lime and herbal notes with a quite firm, spicy bitterness. Interesting enough, but a bit unbalanced for mine.

deep golden color. Over ripe mangoes, stone fruit and citrus notes. Malt character isn’t too pronounced. Medium body, firm bitterness nice hop character, but again missing some character - and why need so many malts ? Anyways perfectly acceptable wcipa, rather pleasant but nothing amazing

I confess I never even noticed he had a cane until very recently - too distracted by the guy playing two saxes at once I suppose. Can. Just misted gold with a modest white head. Mellow soft bready aroma with gentle red grapefruit, honeydew & peach. But then turns out to be quite floral and peppery at the fairly bitter end. Neither as soft nor as sweet as suggested by the aroma. Fox Friday are certainly cranking out the IPAs - I can't keep up - but most of them are interesting and good.

Can. Misted gold with a modest white head that take a while to vanish. 3+ Pungent aroma of mostly tenor register citrus, tropical berries, damp pine. Full bodied but not heavy with nicely judged moderate carbonation. A balance of pine, tropical berries and more restrained citrus than suggested by the aroma before prudent finishing bitterness. Sophisticated.
