12 oz can poured, best by 1/2024. Lighter pale golden with a snowglobe of sediment, thin head. Really easy drinking fruit beer here. Lots of raspberry jam on toast flavor here. Cool, refreshing finish with the slightest hint of tart character. Raspberry and wheat notes mesh well. I'm surprised this ordinarily very light abv style isn't produced by the NA brewers more often. This works well, and fits in well with its boozy counterpart.

12 oz can poured, from the Bravus sampler pack. This is a really refreshing NA option for a warm sunny day, and we just happen to be getting our first real one of the year. Clean pale golden appearance. Lasting thin head. Aroma is a juicy orange fruit, with little else to pick up. Juicy body to this, lots of fruity orange flavors, and the slightest grainy grit. I don't get a whole lot of IPA feature here. Very little hop influence, and the flavor is dominated by blood orange. That being said, it's at least half way what they say it is, and the result is a refreshing, easy drinking blood orange beverage. Drink this ice cold and cool down quick.

355ml can from a Liquour store in Huntington Beach, drank in the afternoon on 18th January 2023. Looks like a lager/blonde, clear golden body and a short lived white head, carbonation bubbles rising through the brew. Malty nose and taste with a strange sugar rush in every sip, it's bloody awful to be honest.

12 oz can from Bravus, 11/1/22 (as Peanut Butter Dark). Pours a dark brown color, minimal head. Chocolate-peanut butter aroma. Bit of roast and peanut skin as well. Sweetness is restrained. Really nice overall. Definitely the best Bravus NA beer I've tried, and one of the better NA beers I've tried overall.

12 oz can from Bravus, via mail, 11/1/22. Clear amber, beige head. Sweet, uncooked bread / wort, caramel, and a little grain. Flavor is actually pretty solid. Drinks clean and smooth. Not too bad.

12 oz can from Bravus (as Bravus Oatmeal Dark, which appears to be a name change to the same beer not a new beer), 10/12/22. Pour is brown with a thin head. Aroma is roast / dark chocolate. Touch of earth and spice. Balanced flavor. Thinner feel. Not bad.

12 oz can from Bravus, via mail order, 10/12/22. Pours a clear pale yellow, with a nice bright white head. Nice blood orange / orange soda style aroma. Flavor, much like with the Hazy and regular IPAs starts decent, but has a little too much of that wort thing going on. Nice aroma, easy drinker, just hard to get past that finish.

12 oz can from Bravus mail order, 10/12/22. Slightly hazy golden color with a thick, bright, white head. Aroma is pretty nice, with some mango, orange, and red berry hop notes. Taste is similar, but a touch of a letdown comparatively, with the citrus up-front and that slightly unpleasant worty thing some NA beers have happening toward the mid-end palate. Still, its pretty solid overall, and significantly better than the IPA.

12 oz can from Bravus, via mail, 10/4/22. Unlcear yellowish color, thick white head. Aroma of lemon, pithy grapefruit / orange, and a little pine. Flavor is not up to the level of the aroma though. Bit of hops, but way more buttery and vegetal off flavors. Mouthfeel is okay. Ultimately, it just doesn't taste very good. Not for me.

12 oz can poured, picked up from NAbrews. Cloudy golden orange appearance, patchy foam head. Inviting pine heavy hop aroma. Flavor has plenty of rich caramel malts. Lots of wort flavor on this one, with a bitter late linger. Grapefruit peel type bitterness, with a soft forest finish. Flavorful brew, which I'll never complain about within the style. Not bad.
