Can from source: poues yellowish with fizzy head. Aroma is weird blackberry, sage, dish soap. Taste is like cleaning products, but while it is jarring at first one gets used to it. Gin treatment is heavy.

Can from the brewery: pours clear yellow with white head. Aroma is light bretty funk, mango and basil. The atypical flavor pairing here is less off-putting than some of the other ones and is actually fairly drinkable. It is certainly weird.

Can from the source: I think this was a little leaky, but the sugar probably filled in the cracks. Black with beige head. Aroma is loads of habanero, chocolate, and some booze. Taste is quite spicy, nice chocolate notes with a mellow cinnamon undertone. Nicely done.
