355mL can, pours a cloudy dark amber with a small white head. Aroma is full of Kedem Concord grape juice and a touch of brett. Flavour is bretty upfront, but then transitions to Concord grape juice. Not very sophisticated. The brett is decent but the grape character is not pleasant.

Hazy blond colour. Aroma of Brett, light fruit. Bone dry, Brett upfront, mildly funky, and getle stone fruit. Too bad they exploit the IPA tag; pretty decent though.

Dark cola colour, small head. It has a lean malt and caramel profle, some cola, and a pleasant red wine note. I can't remember how long it has been since the last time I had a Dark Saison, this doesn't really seem to be a Saison anyway, but it's a pleasant Ale.

Peach and soft. Nice malt character, and it's cohesive with the cherry and fruit accents.

Deep vinous character. Full body. Juicy, with a light barrel character. Good bugs, and well balanced with the base.

Pale with a slight haze. No head. Solid brew, nice vidal character. This is distinctive, and the grapes go well with the saison base.

Amber, with a touch of haze. Light brett. Malts are kind of gloppy, underattenuated, and it's yeasty. This is not the first time this year I have suffered through a brett beer that was released before the brett got going, and it's starting to annoy me.
