On tap at Parallel 49. Pours hazy blonde with a white head. Straw and sweet esters on the nose. Flavour has a ton of bubblegum from the esters with a wheaty base. The esters seem way out of check here, not a fan.

Amber, beige head. Vague pumpkin pie spice in nose, more prominent in palate. Light malt in back, very low bitterness. Better than expected

On tap at Parallel 49, pours a clear dark amber/mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma has some licorice- and root beer-like spices, and I guess a rum & coke character. Flavour is dry, tart and spiced, with the same aforementioned spices, lacto, and rum & coke. Cheap flavoured kettle sour like so many others. Crap.

On tap at Parallel 49, pours a cloudy peachy pink with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of hibiscus upfront, along with gentle red berries, and a touch of yogurty lacto. Flavour is indicative of a cheap kettle sour, with lots of lacto, unfortunate sugars, and hibiscus of course. Sweet, yogurty. Garbage cash-flow beer.
