16 oz. Aroma has notes of coffee, roast, dark bread, vanilla. Pours hazy root beer brown with a one finger beige head that settles into a ring after a minute. Taste has a mild sweetness backed by faint bitterness, with roasty coffee flavors. Very tasty.

Coffee and roast. Dark amber pour with decent head. A small touch of rye. Light bitter finish with some lemon peel. Tap at Max's.

Can. Pours a hazy dull yellow with a slight orange hue and a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has dank pineapple and a bit of light fruits with some guava underlying. Flavor has the same dank pineapple with a bit of earthy tropical fruit and a touch of sweet citrus.

16 oz. can. Aroma has vanilla, chocolate and plenty of maple. Vanilla and long lasting maple throughout the flavor. Body is medulla plus with nice texture. Quite honestly this really rides the line of being ridiculously sweet. 4 oz. is about all I wanted.

16 oz can from John, thanks pal, 4/18/22. Canned 1/12/22. Clear pinkish-orange color with a thin white head and light, drippy lace. Sweet and fruity aroma and flavor. Lots of raspberry, as you'd probably expect from the name. Mild tartness to keep the sweet / jammyness in check. Drinks cleaner than many lactose beers, which is nice. It's pretty good thanks to being more drinkable than I expected from a lactose sour jam beer.

16 oz. can. Aroma shows soft chocolate and raspberry. The flavor is equal parts chocolate, vanilla and lasting raspberry and the finish. Personally I could do without the lactose but the Brewer pulls off the raspberry dessert. It does taste really good!

16 oz. can. Aroma is floral and pine. Flavor shows a little bit of bread malt to go with a ridiculous amount of floral and pine hops. I bought this knowing it was a West Coast style IPA. Yep. I confirm I still I don’t want to drink a West Coast IPA.
