16 oz. can. Nose of rye bread, apple, toffee. Taste is bready, warming to light spice, nuts and again slight apple. After taste is like rye bread. Decent example of the style.

Hazy bright orange-brown body, thin-medium dense cream head. Aroma gummy and tropical with notes of lychee. Body juicy, tropical, with guava, lychee, melon, berries, and lime on a bready, doughy backdrop. Very nice.

Pours a nice hazy gold from a can. Big pine aroma, some stone fruit. Similar flavor, pretty good beer.

Pours light clear mahogany into a shaker. Mocha head with good retention recedes leaving no lacing. Dark caramel aromas. Soft with sweet molasses, toasted brown bread and dark dried pit fruit upfront turning to mild, dry clove in the lasting finish.

16 oz can. Galaxy hops dominate this beer. Quite honestly what I’m drinking doesn’t match the Brewer’s description. This is heavily floral with pine-like resin that last throughout the sip. The fruit is barely noticeable. I also have no idea how the the can is. Yeaaaaaaah, not a fan.

16 oz can. Aroma is mixed berries. The flavor manages to show a good amount of plum with the berries. The vanilla finish is slightly sweet. It is what you would expect from a fruited sour with milk sugar.

Old can. (16 oz.) Everything still works out. Aroma shows bready malt with some lemon citrus. Texture is crisp but also grainy. Shows mild black pepper in the backend of the sip. It is completely acceptable.

Black body, airy, light brown head leaving curtains of lacing. Aroma mostly dark, unsweetened chocolate and cocoa powder with roasted malts and a touch of licorice. Inky, roasty body, with dark chocolate, coffee bean, licorice, and piny, spicy hops. More akin to an imperial porter than an imperial stout, but a fine beer regardless.
