Draft at Astro Lab. Poured a very beautiful, vibrant deep yellow color with a medium sized white head. Aroma was really pleasant Belgian yeast, really fresh. Wheat. Bright and vibrant.

Draft pour at the brewery. Nice to have a beer that isn't a hopbomb at all. Nice and nutty, malty notes. Dry roast. Nice and light and easy to drink. A touch thin but given it's a Mild, that's more of a feature than a bug. I'd drink this again.

Draft at Astro Lab. Poured a very hazy dark orange color, looks a bit like melted dreamcicle ice cream, maybe not quite that opaque, but close. Not much head. Aroma was big mango, passionfruit, other fruits. Flavor had juicy vanilla and mango.

2022, seems to be the same beer ingredients as 2021. Poured a cola colored body with a light off-white head. Figgy, kind of got a bit of a gumball character, might just be the fruity fig, wheat, interesting. Flavor was slightly sweet, grain, light spice.

Clear gold, white head. Nose has corn and grassy hop, clearly continental, light metal. Fresh Urquell. Flavors same. Feels like it would come out of a green glass bottle. Off dry, lightly flabby finish that has some white pepper. 6 3 6 3 11

Clear brown creamy Grey head. Nose of rootbeer and candied pecans, malt and over steeped tea (1st running as they say in Darjeeling). Flavor has better Malt, yeast but candied pecans s are still there. Dry, peppy finish. 8 4 8 4 14

Watery pulp, creamy white head. Big passionfruit and melon nose, grape must. Nose is over done and it screams Phantasm. Body is thin and there's a booze or hop creep component to boot. The fruit is there, stinky melon and orange. Zippy finish helps but it needed way more body. 6 4 6 3 12
